Yes

chocnomore · 05/12/2013 19:25

oh yes!

carrotsarenottheonlyveg · 05/12/2013 19:27

Me too!

moondog · 05/12/2013 19:27

I know Prof. Hastings and he would be happy to come and speak (I asked him to). I emailed MN about this a while ago and they expressed interest but I heard nothing back so emailed to jog their memory and they asked who was interested so I need to point them to a thread to show them of the interest expressed.

He is one of the (few) people I rate highly in the world of SN and a lovely man as well.

Em8888 · 05/12/2013 19:28

Hi - yes me too. Please keep us posted, I know I need all the help and advice I can get! X

bialystockandbloom · 05/12/2013 19:29

Would be great to have this on the main boards wouldn't it, and hopefully non-SN posters would join in

uggerthebugger · 05/12/2013 19:55

I'd love something like this. Put me down!

moondog · 05/12/2013 19:55

Yes please. I read his blog now and then. Obviously a very clever man but his words are so straightforward and simple to read. I'm surprised anyone ever attempts to argue with him Grin.

tethersend · 05/12/2013 20:44

I would.

tethersend · 05/12/2013 20:46

Be interested, I mean. Not shag him. He's no Alistair Campbell Grin

StarlightMcKenzie · 05/12/2013 20:46

Lol.

moondog · 05/12/2013 20:51

Alistair Campbell?? God he's a bore and never belts up about his 15 minutes of fame. Prof Hastings is a million times more interesting!!!

OP posts:
StarlightMcKenzie · 05/12/2013 20:56

But main board please!

tethersend · 05/12/2013 21:01

Well, I could talk to Prof Hastings and shag Alistair Campbell. He doesn't need to talk. Hey presto! problem solved.

I can't help feeling I've lowered the tone of your thread, moondog.

But yes to a webchat.

moondog · 05/12/2013 21:03

Not at all.
The Prof would be amused.

osospecial · 05/12/2013 21:30

Another yes to a web chat please Smile

MariaNoMoreLurking · 05/12/2013 21:42

When?

That would be amazing

me55monster · 05/12/2013 22:20

Yes yes please. Would be very interested in this.

ProfessorSong · 05/12/2013 22:25

Yes.

moondog · 05/12/2013 22:32

If you want him, he will come (as Kevin Costner said about the golfers in the corn. Or was it baseball? One weird film.)
