I had a great visit to Dunraven School in Streatham yesterday.  And a great group they were, too.  Good questions, good energy, and even a new comment by one of them on the Visitors page who swears I wouldn't read it (wrong!).  But welcome to him and to Kimberley and Ann, the two other new comments (and, Ann, the iron man is at the Studio Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, outside of Tokyo, the most perfect small museum in the world).

Also to say that in addition to that signing at the Preston branch of Borders Books on Tuesday, 13 October, at 5pm (call 01772 703856 for info), I'm also now going to be signing at the Waterstone's in Nottingham on Wednesday 14th October at 3.30pm (1-5 Bridlesmith Gate, Nottingham, NG1 2GR. Tel 0115 948 4499) for more details.

Be great to see you there.
