- The welcome reception took place at Robinson College starting at 19:00 on Sunday, 11 September 2016. Drinks and a selection of finger food from the Robinson kitchens were provided. The registration desk was open from about 17:30 on Sunday and throughout the welcome reception, so participants could collect their badge and conference materials upon arrival.
- The walking and punting excursion was included in the registration, and took place on Monday, 12 September 2016 starting at 17:50. This consisted of a guided walking tour of Cambridge and a short outing on a chauffeured boat known as a “punt” on the River Cam. NO MEAL WAS PROVIDED. The tour ended in central Cambridge where there is a choice of good restaurants for participants to sample. We provided a list of recommendations. It is a 10 minute walk back from central Cambridge to Robinson College. A map of the town was also included at the back of the printed programme.
- The workshop dinner took place on Tuesday, 13 September 2016, starting at 18:30 at Trinity College. Note that there are two colleges in Cambridge called “Trinity Hall" and “Trinity College", and our dinner was at "Trinity College". We started with a drinks and canapés reception in the outdoor cloisters of Neville Court during sunset, and then moved to the Great Hall for a traditional college dinner starting at 19:30.
