Harold as Puck, 1975

Over the years, recognition has come, often out of the blue. Sometimes it has been letters, talking about camping trips to the centre of the universe. There have been conversations, both long an short, letters, even a heckler in Nottingham who admitted that sometimes all an old lady wants is a "peck on the cheek" (she got it), and there have been awards. Here are the awards.
