Kindest regards,

He was a lovely gentleman to know- though ever-so-slightly a typically eccentric (though definitely not mad) professor. He would jog to work in a morning in his pristine Armani suite, resplendent with his moth-eaten, but comfortable trainers. He was as bright as a button and always had fresh ideas and opinions and was forever inventing new devices, some of which I evaluated as I was a specialist in medical electronics. One such device was his “Orgasmatron” – for establishing the presence of physiological Anorgasmia or psychological sexual dysfunction in females. It consisted of a dildo with electrical contacts through which a very low voltage current could be passed via a nerve stimulator device.

He was a supreme tutor too. He postulated that the movement of food from the mouth through the alimentary canal was down to peristalsis and not due to gravity. To prove this he stood on his head against a wall whilst drinking. Point proven. I was also privileged to be treated to his playing his logical bassoon.

I am indebted to Professors Brindley, Polkey and Adams for their nurture and support.

Because the conditions cools, numerous families are compelled indoors
during frosty days, which really is a disgrace since slide can be
a beautiful season that needs to be liked.
