Oooh, I think I shall forgoe my lunch break tomorrow to go to the on in Aberdeen!
Missed edit time, but I've just booked me a ticket - picking it up in the morning and heading to the event after a lecture (which is literally about 200m from the music hall! :D).
He's got a book signing at Waterstones at 5:30 too, I'll head to that at about 4:30 probably!

Jackie was in Waterstone's in Ayr on Saturday. I was at Knockhill but managed to get someone else to get his book for me..
:D
Have had a quick look at it and it certainly looks like I will enjoy reading it.
I dont think you do, I'm assuming its in the waterstones across from the music hall aswell, and not the one that used to be Ottakars Edit: sticking the telephone number on celebritybooksignings.com puts the arrow above the waterstones across from the music hall, very good :)
I'm gonna go grab my ticket for the event tomorrow at around 11:15, and grab a copy of the book from waterstones at the same time, should be a good day :)
Nice bit of sign-age there!
Down F0rce - if you are at either event, look out for a chap in glasses with an Iron Maiden T-Shirt on (or a bright blue DPR fleece-thing!), and pop over and say hello :)

I'll pick up my ticket for the talk in the morning too, then walk on down to Waterstones and see if you need a ticket or not. I'll pick the book up too. Wonder if he will sign anything else...
Well, I'm taking something else in the hope he will - I dont imagine he will, but it's worth a try I'm sure!

That was brilliant! Very interesting and funny talk, plus I got my book dedicated to me. He also said he liked by Indy 500 belt! Hooray!
Yeah, very cool talk indeed - JS + 3 Nuns @ Spa!
It's a shame the book signings were a bit rushed, but understandable - I got one after his talk and went to waterstones to get one for my cousin!
Overall, a very good event - and he had a nice tour bus too!
