Thanks for the info!
I shall try to get along to the Nat Hist Mus signing. I got my copy of The Private Life of Plants signed at Books Etc. in Victoria. Took my five-year-old son along - he's eighteen now!

Fritillary he said hes not retiring  Life in Cold Blood just completes "The Life" series, sooo who knows what will be next!
I met him yesterday! He is such a nice man, he started signing 20mins early! The queue was huge, i recon alot of people didnt get to meet him, we met him with 10mins until the signing finished, and we were stood about 1/4 of the way in the queue! I got a picture with him too
This is my favourite picture that I took

From what I understand he is not making any more major series, but slimming down to narrations on tv programmes. He is 81 after all.
Cheers,
Adam

DA always struck me as the perfect Grandad
Im tempted by the NHM book signing but that will probaly be the busiest of the lot! |

Mr Mag00, definately!! Advice has probably come a bit late now, sorry but only just discovered this website.
I went yesterday and saw him in Windsor. Was a brilliant experience. There were cameras there from various papers and am trying to find out which ones. Have phoned Waterstones but they're unsure. Anyone have any ideas?
Lucky sister who got to meet him at dinner! |
