Chasing Progress

"In my beginning is my end. In succession
Houses rise and fall, crumble, are extended,
Are removed, destroyed, restored, or in their place
Is an open field, or a factory, or a by-pass."


Shortly, this quiet life of Pimms, rain and watching the tennis from Wimbledon will be disrupted... I have been told that the Management School are moving into an entire island of our own, even though I pointed out that I was only joking when I said Second Life was the future of management education. I am still not clear what we are going to put on over 50k m2 of land.


The clever money is on "factory", though "bypass" or, even better, "open field" would suit me fine.
