We've reached a real breakthrough with the summit in our collective attempt to ensure that this is a successful gathering of the global family,

Once we reached the summit, we knew we wouldn't be able to stay there for long, in fact, we were only at the peak five or 10 minutes. So we knew that we wouldn't have any time for re-shoots. Whatever we shot, we shot. But this tape performed beautifully, the camera mechanism is rugged and, as a result, we got the footage we wanted.

It's essentially an attempt to rationalise the number, so that you have bigger regions which have more capabilities. How many regions there are will depend on what the committee recommends and what the annual general meeting accepts,

When I have reached a summit, I leave it with great reluctance, unless it is to reach for another, higher one.

The pond-lily is a star and easily takes the first place among lilies; and the expeditions to her haunts, and the gathering her where she rocks upon the dark, secluded waters of some pool or lakelet, are the crown and summit of the floral expeditions of summer.

Obviously we want to find common ground, we want a successful summit, but we're not giving away our principles in order to get there,
