Last Friday the South Midlands district of BRSL lifted transport and distribution managers from their natural environment and dropped them amid the cloisters and panelled walls of Magdalen College, Oxford.
In this now-traditional annual evening, 150 customers of BRSL went up to Oxford for dinner, preceded by cocktails in the Oscar Wilde Room. What a splendid evening it turned out to be. At first the guests conducted themselves like apprehensive freshmen on their best behaviour. By the end of the evening the party resembled a rugger or boat race victory celebration.
On Saturday morning they were all sent down; but as hosts, Ken Cook's men qualified with first-class honours.
