Oh, don't get me wrong, not having a go - just wondered if it was the Trenchard, so I could offer the view of one who was there (in fact, the nearest anyone came to being booed was when the discussion moved on to procurement and following a comment from Prof G about the move to Abbeywood, etc, I said something along the lines of 'I agree with Eric that it raises the question of whether Abbeywood's fit for purpose?'

Sadly, a member of the audience who'd been involved in designing the building thought that I was talking about the architecture there and rather sternly rebuked me for my contention that it was jerry-built when it was in fact constructed to the highest standards in the construction industy. I believe the transcript shows that my response to him began 'Errrr......')
