James Barclay

[Lizzy]

Malop and Jov suggested to me that the forum might like to have a book launch party. James is interested in the idea if enough people would be willing to turn up. So is anyone else interested?

We need suggestions for a suitable location too.

July 2008 is the proposed release date

Oooh, the first but hopefully not the only one to vote yay. Somewhere vaguely central, location wise would be cool so it's not too difficult for people to get to from either direction?
I would suggest somewhere more accurately but I don't actually no anywhere really south of here so that's not much help.

I would be interested! although chances of me realistically being able to attend would be in the low 1% region. Still I think it's a good idea!

[Max Power]

I'd be tempted (location permitting). I'm sure I could make a proper trip out of it if it was far away (eg London!) and catch up with friends. Would be interested in hearing more.

I expect I ought to vote yes...

Don't worry, Selik, we won't intefere with your graduation. Everyone needs a day looking daft in robes.

Togo? As in dress in clothes indigenous to the Togo people, or togA where everyone walks around looking even more ridiculous than myself in graduation garb.

Besides which due to Latin lessons back in school and events that cccurred during those lessons I'm afraid I have a toga phobia and therefore I refuse to wear one.
