  1. Looking forward to hear all about Hart as student of Chinese language. He was such a brilliant student in his days at Queen’s University College as it was called at his time.
    He always ended the academic year with a grant!

    • Aglaia, glad that you will join – feel much saved as you are the expert to come to the session 😉
