 PROJECT FUR HAT 1964

In early 1964 we came to the Acceptance Phase of the Project.  There were a wide range of acceptance teats, which called for a strong level of management.  I was back in Sweden, this time with Joyce and the children, with overall systems responsibility.  Chris Bagguley was in charge of the installation team, and Tom Gaskell produced the Acceptance Specification.  We had regular meetings, and when the three of us were together it was known as a 'COINC'.  This was a term used in the logic design of the system, and seemed appropriate for our joint togetherness.  We worked long hours, but we made time to be with our families, and it was a happy time for us as a family.  We lived at Kunsangen, in a summer house beside a lake which was frozen. Here are some pics of us as a family, and with the Zimmermans, an American family who were working as Christian missionaries in Sweden.  We got to know them at the church where we went on Sundays.  It was a very strong friendship
