Nick read Patrick Grant's book, and loved it. He’s pretty minimalist anyway (N) but he's now obsessed with checking the source of any new clothes, and his ambition is to buy something from Patrick's label! We’d both have loved to hear him speak. I gave up on Tim when his brand Zoe launched their range of nutrient supplement powders - talk about selling out! A complete 180° from what he preaches! And yes, he’s humourless. I agree with Deborah re Michael Mosley.

I saw David Nichols speak in Crickhowell and thought he was marvellous too! Tim Spector does seem a rather cold fish, though I agree with his ideas, he is certainly not strong on humour! I think this what made Michael Mosley so endearing, he was not only a brilliant communicator, but never took himself too seriously.

How wonderful that you still have your childhood stories! It is very touching and imaginative and very good indeed for a ten year old.
