I am sure I bumped into Rowan when I lost my welsh blonde male way when coming out of a shop from the backdoor with my Surrey blonde daughter and I did near Covent Garden, and I said where are the hell are we, and h came up straight and ask if we (I) need help in London navigation, I said no, as I said it in confusion at my daughters attack of the coathangers.

This was about 2004 time.

Hague and Dr Williams are of moderate size, so the room is quite comfortable for them to accommodate them both without being suffocated. I suppose they can even have room for a coffee without spilling it over by knocking on each other. Great to see them so relaxed. Hague could do with some lessons from an outsider as he seems to be stumbling blindly from one world crisis to another.
