I suppose there would be a hope, maybe, amongst the general public that regulators would do their role and bankers might have a separate role from regulators. And I want to ask you, did you have many social gatherings with leading bankers in your time working in the Financial Regulator? I'm not talking about the ploughing championships now, or other events like that. Were there other occasions when such gatherings, or similar gatherings, took place during your time with the regulator?
