… and for those of you who want to get a small taste of what it was like on that first #Higgsdependence day, please check out this episode of my old short-lived podcast, “Going Up Alleys”, entitled “Diary of a Discovery”. I was very fortunate to “be in the (literal) room” the day the Higgs was announced.

… here is a group of us, probably marking the 10th - 25th people in line, in the morning just before the #Higgs discovery seminar was ready to allow people in for seats. I met some people that night I’d never met before, but whose paths I then crossed for many years after. I also reconnected with some old colleagues in line that night and morning. It was an electric experience.
One of my favourite things was the specially labelled bottle of champagne my colleague, Aidan, put together in anticipation of this day. It was drunk with great delight, I am told.
