Philoxenia was a top virtue in ancient Greece. A concept the classics expert Boris Johnson could explain to his colleagues now in government. Well done William Wragg for raising this!

Environmental DNA clarifies impacts of combined sewer overflows on the bacteriology of an urban river and risks to public health. Summer tip: Don't wade and splash around after thunderstorms, or if the water is very turbid. @EnvEng_NCL Engineering at Newcastle sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Great to see so many friends and colleagues attend & for best wishes receipts from those who couldn’t. Really enjoyed recounting my academic journey. Thanks to all and esp. Thomas P Curtis for making it happen & @EnvEng_NCL Engineering at Newcastle Newcastle University for a cultural home.
