Dear Gordon,
I am unsure if you remember me, but I was briefly on sabbatical at Oxford in 2003. We struck up a friendship that I often think about.
My wife Elizabeth and I are planning to teach a course for Bucknell students in London, where our University has a program abroad. If all goes well we will be there in the autumn of 2012. In our course there, we are featuring the blurry boundaries between normal and pathological processes. We will have resources to travel and to bring in speakers, and I thought that it would be wonderful if we could connect again, and to host you. If our students (and my wife and I) had the change to see you (again, for me), we would all be grateful!
I hope this works out, and please know that however brief our contact was, I am always proud of our affiliation, and hope to extend it.
Regards,
David Evans

Dear Prof.Claridge,
Pleasant Greetings. I had the good fortune of meeting with you when I visited Oxford University for an interview for the Rhodes International Visiting Fellowship for Women in June 1988. You might or might not remember, but I (a student of Dr. S.N. Sinha) had come from Jaipur, India. After I returned to India, I started teaching here in Jaipur in the Deptt. of Psychology, University of Rajasthan. I have followed your outstanding work on the internet, Wikipedia…and also know that you are Prof. Emeritus, Deptt of Experimental Psychology, at the University of Oxford. I had a small query for which I needed your assistance Sir. I would be very grateful, if I could have your email address Sir, so I could write to you in some detail. Prof. Sinha, who is retired now, often remembers you.
Thanking you,
With warm regards,
Mukta.
With warm regards,
