One issue we discussed was the differences today. Ken didn't envy today's electronic world. I receive between 100-150 emails a day which Ken just looked upwards when I told him. I recall he had one staff which was sufficient back then. Miss him. Great conversations.
Ken had 3 staff Graham I at Westminster two in Ossy a researcher and a typist, no computers back then, well only very limited and defo no emails, but the daily mail delivery was something to write home about, quite often it was delivered in a sack by mail van, especially when the house was in recess
