Thank you Sir. There is so much good material in this talk. May I humbly suggest that we have another run at it. This time with a structure of where we’re going set out at the beginning and then referenced as we pass each milestone along the way. Wonderful thoughts, explanations, views and deconstruction of the landscape are all present and are too precious to miss or forget. A theme, a preview, main points and a summary have seldom been more wanted. It would make a huge difference and lift the audience to the summit from where the speaker sees so much beauty.

Sotheby’s only had metal folding chairs?! Could explain everything 😃

Remarkably, the speaker struggled all the way through to the end, wherein was revealed the futility of struggle.

Apologies to the audience for this meandering talk including an advert for his side business. I feel close to some of these landscapes having lived close, worked on restoration of, and actually designed (the extremely subtle) front of the New Inn.

Digressions all the way , barely getting to an ending with an asured point.Yet pleasurable.

A potentially interesting topic... unfortunately a painfully awful speaker.
