The interview pdf was interesting too ..he wasn't so great at being self effacing (which I think is a quality of great interviewers) but it was an entertaining piece. So much pleasure gained from your post ...Many Thanks! I think I'll look out for her memoirs they sound like they'll be quite my cup of tea.
