Outtakes: Christian Ward of Futures, March 2010.  Every time I look at this photo it makes me laugh, even though I can’t remember what it was we all found so funny at the time.  Yet the person in the background, all huddled up in a hoodie, is Ant and he’d laughed so much that hot water he’d been drinking had gone up his nose!  And remembering that is what amuses me most.
