From The President's Office

摘要

This will be my sixth page and it thus marks the halfway point in my term as your President. It is said that time flies when one is having fun and if that is to be believed than I must have been having fun over the past few months as it certainly does not seem that nearly six months have passed since my inauguration. The major difficulty in writing this monthly piece is that it has to be prepared some three weeks prior to publication and that results in needing to think some eight weeks ahead in terms of Association activities in order to mention them in good time. Continuing the record of my activities as your President, the second week of September saw me attending a Dinner at the Lords Cricket Ground in London to represent the Association at the first joint Dinner of the London Branches of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the Institution of Civil Engineers.
