Please remember to RSVP where required and double check times, dates and venues.

Would you like to spend a night with me (actually, with my wife and me - nothing improper!)? Antares Camp is offering a small number of people to stay the night and have dinner with me. The profits from your booking will go to the ProVet pangolin rehabilitation project in Hoedspruit. They have a fantastic game viewing hide and it will be a fun evening.

Stay tuned for more events and if I'm not coming to your part of the world this time, have a chat to your local bookstore or library and see if they'd be interested in hosting me some time. Let me know!

And, as always, please double check all times, dates and details with the venues - I've been known to get them wrong!
