Ian a great speaker
« on: October 31, 2010, 03:54:59 AM »
I've just returned from Vancouver where I listened to two talks
by Ian.  It was a great day!

One is never sure whether someone whose writing one enjoys will
be equally enjoyable as a speaker.  Well, in this case, the man in
person is way livelier than his writing.  What energy!

Likewise, in Cork. Enjoyed greatly by all who attended.

But, the photographs?
