God, I had a strange dream last night.
I was asked to give a talk about business to a room
full of television executives. Don’t ask me why – it was a dream so it’s not
going to make sense. I was sort-of a warm-up act for the main speaker, who was
a well-known science broadcaster. I have no idea who she was in retrospect, but
in the context of the dream she was familiar, and I was pleased to be working
with her. Anyway, I went a bit off-topic and at the end of my speech I went on
a rant about climate change and how everyone needs to change everything they’re
doing, or we’ll ruin the planet for our grandchildren. I went on so long that
the key speech didn’t start on time and the famous lady (whoever she was) got
really annoyed. I couldn’t understand what the problem was until it was pointed
out to me that the speeches were being broadcast live on BBC Radio 4 and
because I’d gone on a bit, they had to cut away from the conference to play
‘The Archers.’
Make of that what you will.
