John Major

Whilst we were in Athens we shared a lift with John Major, a rather plump, flushed lady diplomat and a couple of rather hard looking security guards. He was then rushed to some meeting, with lights blazing.

I know that Athens has had it's problems in the past with security, but would you want to live like that?

I once heard him speak to the Cambridge Chief Exceutives Group. This was perhaps in 1994 and he accurately predicted what would happen in the following few years. Some of it was very sharp and not to be repeated, other parts were very funny, but all was absolutely fascinating.

A never to be repeated event.
