I was a person of interest to the media in the 80s and 90s, but all that faded away- and- as I said to the woman who came to interview me yesterday- this will be the first time I've dealt with journalists this century. She was primarily interested in things that happened back then- in the days of my media exposure- and I had to dig deep to get at those memories. "That was like archaeology" I said to Ailz afterwards. "How do you know? she said, "You've never done archaeology." "No," I said, "But I've watched Time Team."
