​LOCKDOWN STORY
We were having Sunday lunch when it was mentioned by a senior member of the family, that a family we know were giving talks to each other, the implication being that it was a jolly good thing to do. A little to my surprise the younger members of the family latched on to the idea and thought it would be a great idea to copy them, but they would go one better and record their talks to share with other members of the family. We decided to adopt the 20min TED format so that it was not too onerous a task for presenters and audience and TEDx family was born with the strapline of sharing ideas within the family. We have all agreed to do a talk after Sunday lunch once every three weeks and we will encourage other family members to join in. Here are the first two talks.
