In about 1996, some Chamber of Commerce and Local Government types came over from Eindhoven to Sheffield Science Park on some kind of fact-finding mission. I was wheeled out by dear old Brian Thompson to talk about the NEO Project — here's some ten-year-old evidence of it.
For my trouble, the gentlemen from Eindhoven gave me this CD recorded by the Eindhoven-based Het Brabants Orkest. I was kind of interested to hear the Smetana (not just because I've now got a Facebook friend called Smetana, following my visit to Bratislava last month), but to be honest, this really isn't my kind of thing.
But I probably got more value out of it than the Eindhoven delegation got out of my storytelling, so I can't complain.
