Before I dis­ap­pear on hol­i­day (Corn­wall. Yes, I know the fore­casts. Miser­able. Thanks for ask­ing.), you are cor­di­ally invited to book to see Allison Pear­son and me chew the fat re: the issues behind the forth­com­ing book.

If you want to spend a day punt­ing on the Cam and then spoil it by hear­ing me equi­voc­ate then the details are here:

Date: Sunday, 30 March 2008
Time: 3.30pm
Place: Cripps Court,
Mag­dalene Col­lege,
Cam­bridge CB3 0AG

You can book by phone on +44 (0)1223 300085 (I know you’re not really going to come from over­seas) or online.

It’s £6. I know. You’ll be very welcome.

In the mean­time, blog­ging is sus­pen­ded — have a good break.
