Social Lille

As well as being hard work the Lille trip was also a lot of fun. I stayed in a hotel in the centre of Lille which is a really pretty town, old cobbled streets, quirky buildings as well as magnificent buildings such as the Opera House. It was a 10 minute walk from the metro Gare Lille Flandres and not much further to Rihour where we spent a few late nights eating and drinking.

Lissy, Inca, Paul and Dom had hired an apartment and invited us for dinner on the Wednesday night, Paul cooked a delicious vegetable sauce and pasta and Lissy made a great salad, real team effort.

Friday night was great fun, that feeling of achievement and relief mixed with real tiredness. We spent a few hours in the Irish Bar - no photos for some reason - thanks to Robert and Jamie for the drinks, well for the week really. Overall a brilliant week, would recommend it to anyone for next year.
