Re: Book Signing event
Thats a pity as I will be at Fantasycon that weekend in Nottingham.
Re: Book Signing event
Fantasycon How does that compare to an afternoon and evening in the the company of Robert Rankin, lots of ale, lots of toot and TWO book signings - Billy I'm ashamed of you
Have a good time at the con mate, shame you won't be along
Re: Book Signing event
Well Robert could come to the Con and launch his book there.
Re: Book Signing event

what time is the signinging thing?
Re: Book Signing event
Bother, clashes with Doctor When's BBQ for medieval re-encators
Re: Book Signing event
Should I be free and have enough money (including travel and the actual cost of the book, along with other expenses it comes to just over £40) then I shall certainly be along with a book or ten.
Looking forward to it!
Re: Book Signing event, Sharing accomodation?
I am wanting to share a room on the 18th. I've been looking at hotels and the travel lodge seems the best bet.
London Kew Bridge Travel lodge
North Road
High Street
Brentford
London
TW8 0BD
looks to be about 0.5 miles away and they want £65.50 for a twin room, though they list a 3 person family room at the same rate, but supect thats 1 double and a single. So if 2 other's don't mind sharing?
(The Magpie and crown 128 High Street, Brentford, Middlesex, TW8 8EW )
If any one knows of a cheaper hotel or B&B near to the above pub, please let me know.

Re: Book Signing event, Sharing accomodation?
I believe most people will be at The Premier Inn at the junction of High St & Ealing Rd
The Princess Royal is cheaper
Re: Book Signing event, Sharing accomodation?
Kings Arms by Brentford Station is also reasonable.
Holiday Inn / Premier Inn / Travel Lodge all do deals that render them quite cheap if available for the date wanted.
