The boom is back — a flavour of BEVA Congress 2022
Neither Bose nor Bang & Olufsen can compete with the boom of live music, especially when the ivories were being tickled by our own organist extraordinaire, Chris Pearce, at the famous BEVA Dinner Dance. Zoom and Teams have their place; but you cannot beat a BEVA Congress in the flesh. Huw Griffiths, his committee, and the BEVA team welcomed speakers and delegates from around the world to Liverpool for the 60th Congress, with the first full attendance since the Covid pandemic.
Straight from the flag drop I was reminded of the best of BEVA. Extracted from the status quo and without distraction from normal routine, I moseyed into the Wednesday Welcome Drinks; tired, a wee bit wired and cocktail-deficient. Swiftly medicated and in search of a familiar face I was bumped out of my bubble by conversing with likeminded vets from Sweden and Japan. These ‘chance’ encounters led to learning of a lameness locator for iPhone and a discussion about a nutritional basis for developmental orthopaedic disease in Japanese foals. An inspirational Israeli vet described establishing his own practice, and how he'd budgeted to get to BEVA “because it is the best".
