Putting a boost behind Prester John. Would be nice to have a proper discussion about it if it makes the six.

Grainne, would be nice to come back to this thread once a few more people have given it a go.

Prester John is one I am weighing up. This is the sort of choice I might miss without someone putting it forward.

Eimear, same question here. A quick note on the pace would help me make up my mind.

For anyone considering Prester John: Leaving a boost while I decide. The hard bit is narrowing the list down to just one.
