September 13th – Newsletter!

Posted 9 years ago on September 13th, 2015

Hellooooooo

They found more stones under Stonehenge and some old human bones in Africa. Jeremy Corbyn is the new Leader of the Labour Party and Tom Watson will be doing all his filing and stuff like that. Sorry I haven’t written for ages. I will try to get my monthly newsletters out monthly from now on. You could remind me now and then, if it’s not too much trouble. I’m sure that between the 3 of us we can keep on top of it.

THE BOOK: A BOOK FOR HER

This came out in July. I am very grateful to those of you who bought it.

There are still copies available, so you should get one before they run out. It didn’t sell as well as Limmy’s book, but I think that’s because he gave away free toffee with his. Reviews of the book are here if you’re interested in seeing what someone else’s opinion of it is before you buy it. It was quite fun getting it out.

I did The Penguin podcast with Richard E. Grant which was loads of fun.You can hear it here. and you can buy it here.

THE SHOW: A BOOK FOR HER – EDINBURGH

Thanks so much for coming. It was great to see you all again. I’m sorry some of you had to stand.

A BOOK FOR HER: LEICESTER SQUARE THEATRE – 16 NOV – 2 DEC (not Sundays)

I thought, as the last two shows have done long runs at Soho, that I’d do a shorter run in a bigger room this time. COME ON LONDON DON’T LET ME DOWN. PLEASE BOOK EARLY to avoid your disappointment and my humiliation. (link)
