I wrote France, but I could have written Transylvania. It was France as in "anywhere else than London".
What Sleekviper suggested WOULD put a different slant on things, and that has not changed.
My speculation, as you call it, is not "ill-informed laymans opinion" - there are artists who work like this. I never said that I thought Sickert would have - I instead acknowledged that I am not familiar with his working methods.
My own stance is that there seems to be a clear possibility that Sickert WAS in London and drew his sketches there. It is not a certainty, but a very good suggestion.
Now I am going to run again, David. Misleadings, misrepresentations, ignorance and misplaced arrogance has always made me do that. Today is no exception.
