¡Adiós y buen viaje, Simon!

I have a few words about Simon to mark his departure from Exeter. We are more than sorry to be losing you, Simon. You are going not just to the USA but to Florida – the state of hanging chads and tight election results – and our loss is certainly Florida’s gain. Even as we […]

      As one of Simon’s current PhD candidates, I heartily endorse all that has been said here by his previous ones. Though I have never had a conversation with him about football – or indeed Abbot Ale – I have greatly benefited from his wisdom and guidance and can very much relate to Alun’s ‘medieval Italian city’ experience! Many thanks, Simon, for all you have done and very best wishes for your new role!
