The fellows visit Charing Cross Hospital: The fellows set out for Charing Cross Hospital and had their first experience with the London tube. The fellows were temporarily trapped in the tube station due to the purchase of the incorrect tickets but upon arrival, had a superb academic day. The morning sessions were moderated by Professor Hughes and included presentations on trauma and spine. Emil presented his research findings on the use of different plates and their effects on bone blood supply, mechanical strength, and fracture healing. The afternoon sessions were moderated by Mr. Robin Strachan and included presentations on arthritis and tissue engineering. Cato presented data on from his laboratory regarding the engineering of bone substitutes and generated considerable discussion. The fellows returned briefly to the Nuffield prior to going to dinner. Professor Hughes had kindly made arrangements for the laundry to be done, a need which had not yet been attended to. The fellows had a laundry sorting melee in Guy's room and it was quickly apparent that the fellows had little experience in this regard. Approximately 10 articles of clothing are left unclaimed. Some of the fellows, like Larry (a few less socks), feel short-changed, while others, like Regis, have extra clothes that they cannot get rid off. After some discussion, Guy obtained a nice cotton shirt that no one could honestly claim. Larry is hoping to obtain some extra socks on the next round of laundry.

An excellent dinner was shared in the evening with Professor Hughes, Mr. Strachan, and other guests at the Athenium Club. Guy gave a toast on behalf of the fellows and gifts were exchanged. The fellows returned to the Nuffield to prepare for an early morning departure for Manchester.
