Rob’s great value as a guest and happens to be a fantastic writer to boot. I just I wish I lived in the UK so I could go along.
I highly recommend Love Songs for the Shy and Cynical for your 2010 reading.
Ah, good; so long as all goes well Tube-wise, I should be in time to hear Shearman myself… which, given a recent review assignment, should be enlightening. :)
Ian: Yes, I gather it is a bit good.
Paul: I’m going to try to get there in time for the first panel. Of course, this will require getting up earlier than I do on a normal weekday…
