Just picked up on this thread Melanie, and even though we've not had much to do with each other [:)] I have to say this is great news and well deserved. When do actually find out you've won??
When I was young I was called a rugged individualist
When I was in my fifties I was considered eccentric
Here I am doing and saying the same things I did back then and now I'm labelled senile
The award is to be declared on 30 October, and the other candidate is a really good IP so I am not holding my breath, but an evening in London will be good fun in any case.
