- Wine. Wine is a good thing. Free wine prob not though. I was bad enough last night....

- Where are you wanting to hold said launch? I personally think Ncl is best, but are you holding out for Consett??

- A skulking-in-corners ban for the author. And you have to get your t-shirt out!

More ideas to come :)

Caroline said...

I'm thinking that we get Roz(s) to do it. Honestly, she is clearly clever and expert.

I am worried that you will hide in corner all night.

I think there must be:

* a dodgy actor in jeans that don't reach his ankles.
* lesbian nurses.
* zombies
* men on stilts (cos I like them)
* oiled Olympians (as above)

but I guess it depends if you have to share a launch?

b - Yes, somehow I assumed wine might be a suggestion.

And no, a book launch in Consett? It would simply confuse and anger the locals - I think Newcastle is where it has to be.

If I wear my T-Shirt can I find a reasonably well lit corner to hide in?

Caroline - Yes, lets get Roz(s) in on this. She did a fantastic job, she should do yours too, get those Olympians sorted.

Can I have some of the Brazilian Women's Volleyball team dressed up as Lesbian Nurses?

And I don't know if I'm sharing - I must try to track down Sarah...

I am indeed clever and expert.

So clever that I left my thoughts for your launch at the end of your blog rather than in the 'thoughts for the launch' space.

La de da.

Roz: That is truely some expert cleverness you have going on there. Inspirational stuff :)

DJ Kirkby said...

Champagne please and everyone gets handed a T shirt with DK disco dancing on it at the door (which they then have to wear for the rest of the launch). What?! You said you wanted ideas... :)

watching9987 said...

DJ - Yes. This is true. I did say I wanted Ideas. This is no one's fault but my own. I do think I should have DK there with me though. I feel it may well be necessary - even it will get more attention than I will... :)

I'd go wine, cheese and some shittly acoustic guy sat in a corner somewhere (and i dont mean you or andi)

Tho can we dress up? like fancy dress dress up? (i'm such a child)

Also i'd say any thoughts on music must go through me first. You have little to no taste...

I like the idea of zombies shuffling round with trays of drinks...
and lesbian nurses... not on trays that would be fun, but unmanageable.
Woolies had some bloody handprints for sale... or would those dotted around the place freak people out too much?

Vix said...

would it be too weird to only offer coffee and gingernuts? hmm and some alcohol as there is some of that consumed also...
