What a triumph the Geographical Association evening was on Wednesday – we cannot thank you enough for coming. The feedback from students, parents and staff alike has been so enthusiastic and we are going to have real problems with the let down of no fieldtrip to the Himalayas!
You are a fabulous speaker – your talk was inspirational, touching, funny and truly Geographical… we are going to have a hard time matching this keynote next year.
