The eResearch staff had their annual Christmas event (go-karting) followed by a meal. Being the nice guy that he is – Prof Sinnott let Dr Hossein Pursultani take first place whilst edging out Jiajie Li into third. Fastest lap and loudest yowls for injustice of perpetually getting bumped went to Dr Loren Bruns. Alas several of the team couldn’t make it as they were a/ working, b/ scared of getting lapped by Prof Sinnott.
