A late night shopping treat

church house bookshop event

There is to be a late night shopping event at Church House Bookshop in London next week at which I will be appearing. Readers of the Church Times may have seen the advertisement which lists me as one of a selection of ‘seasonal treats’ along with ’10% off’ and ‘refreshments’.

Eagle-eyed viewers will notice that the ‘late night’ event finishes at 6.30pm. I realise that this might not seem late to some people, but I have to be in by 8pm back in Essex or I will be late for my dinner.

You will also observe that there will be ‘a special cartoon taster’. I do not know what this will be yet. Perhaps I will be showing some drawings, or maybe I will perform a song or a short play. We do not yet know. I have listed this post under ‘talks’ just in case talking is involved. If you have any requests for the cartoon taster please put them in the comments. Please note that I will not do liturgical dance for health reasons.

Do come along if you’re in London. The Church House Bookshop is a good shop, and I am not just saying that because they described me as a seasonal treat.

    Perhaps drawing some cartoons on the tops of cupcakes, or other confections?

  2. Chas says:

    I agree with Aaron – edible paper – the only way!

  3. Jeremy says:

    Are you part of the “everything”? If so, where will you be taking the 10% off?

  4. MadPriest says:

    At last, I thought, a crossword I might actually complete.
    But where’s the clue?

  5. Paul Roberts says:

    Crossword 932 looks as though I might be able to do it. Will Mr Anthony Plumb there too so that I can claim my prize?

  6. Richard says:

    I wonder, are the ‘health reasons’ why you do not do liturgical dance regarding our health or yours?

    I assume cartoon tasting is like wine tasting. You must be the Oz Clarke of cartoons Dave.

    I guess all the national newspaper cartoonists will be there waiting for your verdict. You are now the benchmark they all aspire to :-)

    I’m sure you can find some rice paper and some of those edible icing pens. Some cinamon star cookies and I think you’re there!

    you were featured TWICE at youthwork the conference by the way. Twice in Jonny Baker’s session and once in the final keynote – you star… did they pay you???!!!

  9. Michelle says:

    Heh, I was going to say exactly the same as Richard, but he beat me to it!

    I hope it goes well, and that lots of people enjoy the taste of you cartoons.

    Thinking about Christmas, I couldn’t find a recording of “Love came down at Christmas” that I liked, so I made this (one free for anyone to use, if they want):

    **Well, obviously the typo is now also in my comment.

    >Umm, where is Westminsterp* underground station?

    Ummm. In Westminsterp, possibly?

    Note – I’m just guessing.

    P.S. I hear a rumour that it is under the ground.
