The End of an Era (but the start of bigger things)

So, today arrived, my good friend William Cunningham is leaving Sunderland for the last time, over the last two years we've had a blast. He's had legendary and not so legendary house parties. We've engaged in various philosophical and theological debates all the time keenly observing Sunderland life through our African viewpoint.
While he heads of to Edinburgh this fall, I'll be going to Newcastle University, so we'll only be an hour apart, even though we're in two different countries (as the Scots would love to emphasize)
Anyway, he's still in the air now, so I wish him a safe flight.
