I suppose one of my most memorable moments was upon encountering Ned and mistaking him for a Statesman of some sort.
It was a blessing in a left handed way in that I determined upon a few moments watching Ned that I decided my People Skills were not as impressive as Ned's.
Failing to pick up on his accent....I mistook him for an Australian Bogan of a pretty rough type.
I very much admire his photography and ability to turn a phrase when he gets a bit prickly.
We all know that is a facade and he is really just real cuddly bear inside.
