Hi all,
Just a quick note to point out two slight time changes to the UK dates- at Southampton and Guildford- to make sure that readers have enough time to get to the events.
For the Irish dates, we're checking when most schools are back in Kilkenny and Newbridge. Both signings were originally scheduled to happen in the middle of the day- but if the schools are back in session by then, we might move those start times to 3 PM. I'll keep you posted.
Oh, and for all those people asking for a Belfast signing, you now have your wish...
The changes have been made to the post below.

ReplyDeleteDedication time! *Strikes dramatic pose*
ReplyDeleteI dedicate this page to cats. Cats are a wonderful part of our lives. They steal our chairs, kill the pet budgie, and shoot us smug looks when we are not looking. They also have minor god complexes.
And yet we love them anyway. Thank you, cats. Thank you.

ReplyDeleteand i shall as soon as the kids go deal? now i seriously gtg
ReplyDeleteDerek.
ReplyDeleteDerek.
Make the UK release sooner. MAKE THE PUBLISHERS DO IT BECAUSE IT'S NOT FAIR.
But aside from it being unfair, there is ALWAYS a total moron that will rub it in your nose and then post spoilers. Because people are jerks.
i know it won't happen but i'm just putting it out there because it's kind of out of order.
also hi guys
ReplyDeleteAnd there's a Jekyll and Hyde reference in one of the books... it was a quote...
ReplyDeleteGood and evil are so close as to be chained together in the soul...
yeah...
Hello!
ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteBye Zaf!!!
ReplyDeleteAND SHAME ON YOU!!!!!!!!
Hey Becky!
There should still be a signing in Sheffield! Or Doncaster.
ReplyDeleteIf not, I can't meet you. Damn distance.
FML.
hey Willow, Emily!
ReplyDeleteHey Emily and Becky!! *runs to Becky* My helmet is almost done!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHEY LUCE!!!!!!
ReplyDelete*hugs everyone*
*hands out Skul cakes*
LUUUUUUUUUCCCCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! *big huggles for Lucey*
ReplyDeleteUm... I have a question
ReplyDeleteMinecraft??
Ooooh, that's great :3
ReplyDeleteHey Jordan!
:O
ReplyDeleteYou don't know what Minecraft is? It's a game where you're the only human with zombies and exploding green things and you have to survive!
HELLOOOOO MINECRAFT IS AMAZING
ReplyDeleteI thought the whole point of Minecraft is that you mine and craft stuff...
ReplyDeleteI don't get Minecraft.
ReplyDeleteI've never played it, mind.
There is no point. That's just it! XD
ReplyDeleteA racing pigeon walked into my kitchen yesterday, I named him Gerald.
ReplyDeleteAh I see.
ReplyDeleteWell I can't play it because I am too busy writing my story.
The public demand is getting so high lol
Gerald for the win!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd you survive and build... It actually quite an addicting game...
if you ever get the chance, tobuscus has minecraft videos and youtube... Hilarious mainly because he's so bad at the game :D
Yeah, but I'm no good at building. I just like madly killing zombies in multiplayer and when I'm on my own I slaughter sheep.
ReplyDeleteSLAUGHTERHOUSE!!!
I would write Em, if I had any ideas!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's been plaguer me for days. I have no ideas and I suck at writing fight scenes.
Did anyone head about what happened in Denver????????
ReplyDeleteAbout the Batman premiere??
NO, what happened? Don't tell me someone dressed up as Batman again... That happened the other year at the London premier.
ReplyDeleteHellooooooooo
ReplyDeleteHey Missy!
ReplyDeleteI heard. My stomach was churning, it's so terrible.
ReplyDeleteHope he goes to hell.
CAIN!!!! *hugs* BUDDIE!!!!!
ReplyDeleteno, in Colorado at the midnight premiere, someone opened fire, killed 12 people, wounded 58 others..
Well said Becky.
ReplyDeleteNormally I would be like you Lynx but with this lot on top of me all the time, I unfortunately have to keep going against my own will.
ReplyDeleteHey all!!!¡¡¡!!!
ReplyDeleteThe batman premiere??
ReplyDeleteI heard, it was HORRIBLE!!!!
Just being in a cinema, and someone starts shooting
He was wearing a gas mask, and gassed them before shooting, from what I heard.
ReplyDelete*stares at Pyro* I have not seen you in sooo long that you probably can't even remember who I am.
ReplyDeleteWhat? That sick git is going to hell even if I have to drag him there myself.
Has anything interesting happened in my absence?
ReplyDeleteYeah.
ReplyDeleteThe psychopath shouted "I am the joker" before he started firing.
And someone brought a 3 month old to a midnight premier. Who the hell does that.
At least the lunatic didn't kill himself, the cops have him.
Did he? What the fuck? Ugh. This is why the death penalty should still be a thing.
ReplyDeleteHey Cain
ReplyDelete... 'I am the Joker'? Sick twisted (excuse my language) son of bitch. I hope he rots.
ReplyDeleteAnd people at school want to get rid of the death penalty. I'm like the only one who agrees with it but it's for twisted dick's like him that it still exists.
hey yall *hands out more Skul cakes*
ReplyDeleteyeah... I feel so bad for them... slightly scared to go see my favorite superhero depressing awesome movie...
And a 3 MONTH OLD??? Jesus. ooh!!! pretty colors!!!
WHAT ABOUT SCOTTTTTLANNNNNNNDDDDD?
ReplyDeleteAHHHHHH!!!! AULD REEKIE!!!!
ReplyDeleteOr however you spell it :D
yeah.... laws be damned. ThAT DUDE HURT 60 people, and ruined their friends and families.
ANDREW *hugs andrew*
ReplyDeleteYeah, I heard about that thing. First thing that came to mind was CHECK FOR MISSING MINIONS
ReplyDeleteI think Australia's abolished the death penalty. Pretty sure.
its on the news and in the cinema next door people still got shot
ReplyDelete*hugs Adra*
good to see you too
*waves* hi all thats have appeared
*that
ReplyDeleteahhh i don't knoe what America does... I just... try to repress it.
ReplyDeleteHey Andrew!!!
Lalalalala Christian Bale should visit the people or something... Seriously!!!
Yeah Australia doesn't have the death penalty because it's part of the Commonwealth or the remains of the 'English Empire' as my history teacher used to call it.
ReplyDelete* 'remains of the English Empire'
ReplyDeleteYeah.. I think they went to the dude's apartment, and there were wires and traps everywhere.... they had to evacuate the 5 buildings around it...
ReplyDeleteAmerica has the death penalty but some states don't use it.
ReplyDeleteGod damn it!! I'm learning stuff from citizenship. Ah well, holidays now...
i go back to school on Monday, and today is Saturday
ReplyDeletewow, holidays go quick
My school starts up again in August...
ReplyDeleteI go back 4th of September. Today is first day of the holidays!
ReplyDeletethats right Adra, it had heaps of booby traps and wires
ReplyDeletethay had to use an external window or something like that
I think I will stay a little while...
ReplyDeleteI got good news.
And Sparky has been making me laugh all morning.
Now it's the afternoon.
And I am in a good-ish mood.

ReplyDeleteits good that people are spreading it
ReplyDeleteNow I am off.
ReplyDeleteIf Derek blogspeaks PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE try to convince him to do a signing in Sheffield or Doncaster? Because I have wanted to meet Derek since I read the first book and after all these years I have still not been able to. And I was a fan from the start! So...Yeah...Thanks, everyone.

hi
That's how we have our Christmas, and I LOVE IT. Snow is all good and well, but how can you spend Christmas like that?
ReplyDeleteI hate cold weather. Well... I guess you need a break from the heat after a whole summer. And then a break from the cold after a whole winter. So, it balances out.
I am alright!
ReplyDeleteI am arranging for me and 3 other Friends to go to the Belfast signing even though it is 2 months away and my birthday is even before that :P
Yeah. I dunno what temperature was today, but it was QUITE hot enough, thank you. I like the great British weather.
ReplyDeleteHi NJ!
ReplyDeletemy birthday is in October and im already arranging THAT
ReplyDeletespeaking of birthdays, my sisters birthday is in 2 ish days...
#'Cause baby tonight, the creeper's trying to steal all your stuff again,
ReplyDelete'Cause baby tonight, you grab your pick, shovel and bolt again,
And run, run until it's done, done, until the sun comes up in the morn'
'Cause baby tonight, the creeper's trying to steal all your stuff again#
I love the Irish weather in Winter!!
ReplyDeleteIt is nice and cold. Also if it is snowing and the weather is bad, you are allowed to wear BOOTS like, PROPER BOOTS in school :D
@Adrasdos- aww! D: that would actually kill me having to wait so long :c
ReplyDelete@Miss Cain- WHOOP WHOOP! Me too c: I've got is pre-ordered from Amazon! Are you going to any signings?
I live outside of Belfast and I've booked to go to Liverpool to go to the signing there and see Becky and Gero and Joe and the DAY after I booked Liverpool they add a Belfast signing! But I don't mind because I'm now going to the Belfast signing two weeks after Liverpool with my friend so WHOOP! EXCITED!
