Good evening. First - pub with Ez, Phil, Finn, alcohol, then going to the Cafe Scientifique.

Unfortunately I missed the start of the talk. Alec Jeffreys turned out to be a really really really good speaker. And brave enough to make a gag as follows

  Joe Bloggs
  white; armed robbery
  12.3   14.5  18.9   23.4

  Tony Blair
  white; illegal invasion
  9.4  10.3  17.3  24.3

Then I went to the fish and chip shop and now I am eating fish and chips.

There are examples of entries in the offenders' DNA register, so DNA fingerprint data. I'm not too sure on the technical data.

and note I made up those specific numbers! they aren't even the genuine fake ones.
