Fellow No. 00429

Mr Kenneth Ashworth

Admitted March 1975 · F. (fr.)

Opposed the pocket calculator on the principle that delegated arithmetic is the gateway to delegated grammar. The minutes record the argument as "slippery-slope, but well dressed".

Struck Off, May 1993. Reason: publication of a memoir containing the phrase 'at the end of the day'.
