Every day this projects seems to take a life of its own and yesterday I received an email from Matthew D’Ancona, the Editor of The Spectator who called it a ‘sensational idea’ and wants to hold a Spectator digital dinner to discuss the project.

Matthew d'Ancona supports us

It’s the opportunity of a lifetime and I am absolutely petrified, especially as he’s asked for a wish list of people I like to invite. Where do I start? Mum’s told me not to worry, she siad if I get really nervous, I should imagine all the guests naked. Hmm. I’m not sure if that’s better or worse?

I’m hoping Matthew might like to be our patron.
