Has anybody been this year, or due to go?

Went to David Nicholls talking about 'One Day' yesterday.

Good talk but spoilt by thoughtless people giving the ending of the story away during the questions at teh end.

I'm going tomorrow to a talk on the Qu'ran, then on the Secret Lives of Buildings. I'm sorry to have missed Martin Amis - I saw him speak there a year or so ago and really enjoyed it

I've had a brilliant couple of days. Yesterday I took DD to Moomins, which she loved. Today was for me: Andrew Motion on his work, followed by Andrew Motion and Martin Amis on Larkin. They were both excellent sessions. Highgate Cemetery talk next week!

Are you booked on any?
