Freiberg: 21 September - UMREG 2011

Today was the day for our annual UMREG meeting; the Uranium Mining & Remediation Exchange  the day was very long but really good workwise. We had to start early with a lot of presentations to fit in and I was chairign for about two thords of the dy - but not speaking this time. At 0845 I began the opening session which was the triumvirate of myself, Alex Jakubick and Don Metzler - the executive committee. Then we had an opening speech from the Head of WISMUT and then the technical papers came one after until we finished about 1800. Time for Russ Edge and I to slink away for a quiet beer and then off to the old training mine for the committee dinner with all the UMH and UMREG helpers as well as the international programme committee members.
