Dr Louise Grayson was to have addressed the club tonight on the life of a professional photographer, and something about the QUT offerings in the photographic area. Unfortunately she got caught up in a road traffic accident of which she was a witness (not directly involved) and was unable to leave the scene until all the formalities had been done. That's why she was unable to come to the club.
We offer our understanding to Louise, and point out that at the moment she was helping the Police we were listening to a fascinating talk by a Police photographer explain, among other things, how they handled traffic accidents!
We have asked Louise back, but haven't yet settled on a date.
