CoffeeBron, bless her heart, organised a meeting today to make up for missing her and the others last Monday.

We met up at In2Coffee, which is the coffee shop run by the awesome Valerie Parv, who has established an OBCZ, which has already been stocked up by Unbalanced in one of his famous "bag of books" raids.

We had seven BookCrossers in total, which is better than the official meeting in Starbucks.

Always a great pleasure to spend time with BookCrossers. Calissa might not yet match Valerie's 25 million readers, but she is working on it, being selected as the public face of University of Canberra's literature for the second year running.

Bron graciously consented to help me out with ABC Radio tomorrow. I know my limitations as a sparkling radio personality, and I'm hoping that Bron can charm the presenter and I can sit back and nod and smile occasionally.

Pete, I am envisaging them wanting to hear all about your travels, and me sitting back nodding and smiling!

One of us had better talk.

Meet there at 10.30? Earlier?

I sent an e-mail this morning which referenced Pete's travels, so I suspect you might be correct, Bron!

10:30 should be fine. I suspect, on looking at the schedule, that there may be a regular guest to talk about books, possibly Christine Wallace, whom I know of old.

Excellent. 10.30 it will be.

Hey, ResQ!

Alex Sloane is the presenter, who it turns out is a woman. I should have insisted that the yound and devilishly handsome Bort come along with me instead of the beautiful Bron.

Oh well.

That's at 1045 Canberra time which is 0145 UK time, so maybe you'd best get your emails in early!

Done!

Break a leg ;o)
