In 1994 a crack geology unit was sent to university by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men (and women) promptly (three years later) escaped from a maximum security stockade (the Herdman building) to the Liverpool underground (Central Station). Today, still wanted by the government (student loans), they survive as soldiers of fortune (and librarians). If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the GPG-Team.

The ubiquity of GPG

Here in Aberdeen, I am in the Department of Geology & Petroleum Geology. Now, that's quite a long name to have to say, so it gets abbreviated. And hey presto, I'm in the Department of GPG! There are signs all over the place with GPG this and GPG that. We always knew we were onto a winner but I don't think we ever thought we'd get our own university department. To those Single Honours people who looked down on GPG I say, "COME ON!! LET'S BE AVIN YOU!!" in a Delia Smith stylee.
