Ahead of the #Lions2025 squad announcement this afternoon, we're remembering John Edward Raphael: the St John's alumnus who captained the first British & Irish Lions rugby tour to Argentina in 1910.

Lovely to listen to my fantastic old student Katrina Kelly interviewing our brilliant President St John's College about Latin in her life, her education in Inverness, Classics and careers, and much more - and makes a huge difference to have a Head of House so supportive of Classics.

An amazing evening with my old tutors Peter Hacker (philosophy) and Keith Burnett (physics). Also sitting next to Christopher Llewellyn Smith who ran CERN. Hearing first hand about what is going on in Physics in China. 🤯 Gordon Baker was much missed.
