^ This is why being a re-applicant on a gap year is brilliant! Nothing to interfere with anything.

I have just heard back from my publishers and they have been *inundated* with people volunteering - thank you all so much. I'm quite bowled over by the response. We've had far too many people vounteering than are needed, so not everyone will be able to come and i'm really sorry to anyone who is disappointed. As a little thank you to everyone who did put their name forward, i have got a list from Valerie of your names and will personally send you a signed copy of my book when it's published in August. I'll make email contact with you to get your addresses etc. Again, thanks to everyone and to those that are coming, see you tomorrow!

Ah, yes! Him! hahaha, I actually met him again for the first time since that interview last week - he was very polite actually and quite funny. I think there was a lot behind what went on on Richard And Judy - he was irritated that i was being given air time when he himself had a book out etc - my publicist was there and had quite a stern word with him afterwards while i was outside smoking about him trying to trip me up for no reason live on air, especially as it was the first time i'd ever been on TV and was so nervous - and we'd been talking in the green room for hours and he never mentioned he was going to do that - below the belt IMHO - i actually really respect him as a writer and think he's great - we're both doing such different things, there really was no reason for him to feel the need to try and put me down. Still, water under the bridge and all that.

He seemed like a nice guy when I met him, what happened?
