It was heart-warming to witness the ripple of applause as one of my dear colleagues reminded a packed Chamber of my recent anniversary. I am gladdened, of course, by the attention of my friends. But for those with baser motives may I remind them that twenty five years is just the start. I intend to be around long after County Hall has been redeveloped. I will outlive and outfox the best of them. And Eunice is with me all the way. "Dare to be different", she whispers in my ear as she nips off for one of her many energetic meetings. Dare to be different? I wonder where she picked up a phrase like that?
