From the early 80s (days of Shattock & Rust, & The Place Where Socks Go) to your album 'Entangled' (the launch was such a special occasion), you always amused, inspired & challenged in equal measure. I remember talks about the Gallup Poll in the 80s and a particular chat after the Theos Annual Lecture sometime post-Covid, as it had been the first in a while. Will miss you...
