Abstract
When, after NLW/LAR to‐ing and fro‐ing about a successor to Peter Labdon as editor of NLW, I took on the job, Roger Walter suggested that he interview me. He reminded me that I had interviewed him for LAR (November 1975) just before he became its first full‐time journalist editor. Some days later, and trying to see if there was something in it for NLW, I sat in the smoke‐filled LAR editorial office, swung about in the advertising executive's swivel chair, adjusted my green eye‐shade and suggested that RW and I interview each other and each publish the result in the other's journal. This whimsy was not pursued, but we did agree a date for a meeting, one or two topics we would discuss, and that the resultant interviews would be published without further consultation between us.
