I met two super happy fun people.
It was a pleasure and a delight and good fun to entertain Caroline and Barend at the R&C.
1994/1995 – 32 years ago.

“I found some pictures of a long time ago. Our friend Arianne, who also worked at the Cancer Research Campaign, is on the right.”
Don’t know who the guy at the table on the left is.

(Who are you? Please send us a message.)

Yes, it’s as if nothing had changed!
It was as if time had stood still!

What fun!

 … but some things change!

       

Barend still fits in!

It was lovely seeing you again at the beginning of this month [early July 2026].
We have fond memories of our time in Oxford (1994/1995) and coming to the Rose & Crown many afternoons / evenings after work, Cancer Research Campaign on Banbury road.
What a coincidence that you were there when we turned up!  [Hear! Hear!]
… We had a great time touring around the UK this summer. Hopefully we’ll be able to visit you some time again. Whenever you are in the Netherlands let us know!
Kind regards from the both of us, Barend & Caroline Helderman

Thank you, so much for calling in!
love from Andrew, Deborah, Adam (and Annabel).

PS You caught me not wearing a tie, what happened there, I know not!
