As a writer, Harold has been unswerving for 50 years,

It's wholly deserved and I am completely thrilled. As a writer he has been unswerving for 50 years, ... a most fitting award.

In the end, my children put me on to Pink Floyd when they were teenagers.

Pink Floyd are one of a handful of bands I've listened to a lot and whose concerts I've been to. I love the experience. I don't dance; I just jig up and down like everybody else.
