What?!

Is that me?

Did I see Lauren Henderson and Stella Duffy?

Sadly not ... I don't get out much to this type of event (too many kids, too little time, such a hassle to get to London and back from the appendix-like part of the country in which I'm located, and I *hate* night driving), but more to the point, no-one sends me tickets and I'm too lazy for the muscular ligging required to secure free entry, so no, I didn't see 'em, and so cannot comment on the wildness or tameness of the gig.

_Black Rubber Dress_? Great title, good cover. OOP already? I haven't read it [yet] although I'm sure there're copies on the shelves in the local Waterstones though.

Oh! *not* _me_! OK, disregard the rambling response then ;-)
