I am hoping, with due noddings to pomp and ceremony, to be attending the Swindon launch in Swindon. Is anyone else planning to attend? Do you have details?

Hi fellow Ffordians!

I'm going to Foyles (or should that now be Ffoyles?) on 9th July. I'm looking forward to seeing/meeting JFf.

I'm new to the Fforum but have been reading JFf's work for a long time. Actually, I only bought The Eyre Affair out of curiosity, because my partner said he'd worked with Jasper in the film industry. Of course, I was hooked immediately.

Anyway, hope to meet some of you in London on the 9th.

Welcome to the fforum! Have some cake and a wee dram of whatever you like best. Someone will be along with pie shortly, I'm sure.

Thanks MartinB. I actually prefer cherry pie or Key Lime pie. Do you have any perchance? I'm quite happy to have either of those inna face. In the mouth part of my face, to be specific.

Cherry pie? Certainly.

If you are old enough, there is still some Zuger Kirschtorte left, but I will warn you that it has been described as semi-solid alcohol.

You should find the Who are we thread and tell us a bit about yourself. From your IP address, I'm guessing that you are Guildford, Surrey based?

Polish? Thanks but I'm trying to give it up - gives me indigestion. Mind you, it does leave your insides clean and sparkling.

Having drank Polish spirit, I think the Polish/polish confusion is entirely justified.

Hopefully will make it to Edinburgh or Glasgow, one of the benefits of living roughly inbetween, who knows I may even make both!!

I must much say
My sadness is high
That none to Swindon will come
I hear that there'll be
Many larks that day
(Not as in birds, as in fun)

Come to Swindon on the 7th.

Tis what Jasper would much want!

Sorry, even the train to New York City is almost more than I can afford--crossing the Atlantic simply ain't gonna happen.

Linda, I'm a bit annoyed at not going to Whitby because Sar is at uni in Scarborough and is now home, she's done me out of parental visiting rights, not fair!

So Swindon it is.

Kids, eh? Tsk!

My son graduates from Uni in Reading the same day as the Swindon signing, so unfortunately I shan't be able to make it along to that one either, despite it being the nearest (geographically)

We could do Bath on 11th in the evening.

You shouldn't be so nasty to the new stalker either, I think he deserves the title, better than last years anyway!
