Typing this at Gatwick airport, before my flight up to Newcastle, so have to be quick!! The tour's going excellently -- no bad events or signing so far! Did a small but enjoyable school event in Winchester on Tuesday, then signed stock in Waterstones stores in Eastleigh and Portsmouth. Then my publicist Mary and I went to Hayling Island, where we had a nice hour's walk, befor doing a very big public event in the community hall -- I was speaking for almost an hour, then signing for two and a half hours!! It was nearly 11.00pm before we got to Worthing -- a LONG day, but a good one. Today was quieter -- did a nice school event in the morning, then had a break. Went for a walk around Worthing -- the pier and beach were nice, but the highlight for me was finding an old cinema with a pair of 1920s and 1930s projectors in the window -- VERY cool!!!! I love old movies and anything associated with them, especially cameras of the period -- they're works of art in my view!!! After that I did a signing at Waterstones -- was there for an hour, which was a good crowd for a town of Worthing's size. And now I'm about to board my flight -- onwards and upwards!!!!
