Thanks Dad...

It was a thrill to attend with all the successful artists. I found three other first timers along the route to viewing our work. (I think we latched on to each other, all looking a bit bewildered.) Procession along Piccadilly to St James Church and then back to The Royal Academy to see for ourselves that the work really was hanging and it wasn't all a joke.
