Saturday 10th October. My neck of the woods, Northants. And I have persuaded Feargus O'Connor Greenwood to come and talk to us.
If you don’t know Feargus, you should. He wrote 180 Degrees: Unlearn The Lies You’ve Been Taught To Believe — six years of work, the better part of eight hundred pages, and quite possibly the best book of its kind that anyone has managed to write. He came on the Delingpod a while back and people are still telling me about it. He is calm, formidably well-read and entirely un-mad, which, given the territory, is no small achievement.
Also playing: Unregistered Chickens, featuring my brother Dick, with Andy out front. They apparently get better every time. I say “apparently” because Dick and Andy never miss an opportunity to remind me that I don’t actually come and watch them. This year I may make an exception.
→ Standard tickets, £40
A word about the VIP option. There are only twenty of these, and they are for those who want rather more of the day than a seat and a pizza. You get a proper chat with me; a session of campanology — bell ringing, for the uninitiated — at my local church; and guaranteed front row seats, so you needn’t do the English thing of arriving two hours early to secure them.
→ VIP places, £120 (20 only)
The practicalities: not included in the ticket price but available so you don’t starve/die of thirst — nice pizzas out of wood-fired ovens, and street food. Nearest stations are Banbury or Long Buckby; Junction 11 of the M40 if you’re driving. James would prefer payment in cash, so do message us via the contact form for details.
See you there.
