Small wonder that in the decade that ensued, we became friends. But none of the following memories quite catch Adrian's calm knowledgeability or that conspiratorial twinkle of mischievousness:
* Adrian gobsmacked by the monolithic church at Aubeterre
* Adrian downing beer in the Spring sunshine outside the Green Dragon
* Adrian mounting the steps of St Peter's, Winchcombe in his black top hat
* Adrian fresh from the London train on his fold-up bicycle
* Adrian guiding the nuns of Stanbrook onto unaccustomed green paths in his beloved Yorkshire
* Adrian calling upon a lifetime's architectural experience in the transformation of a garden shed: Peter Pan and his Wendy house.
"Thy kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven."
