It’s not often that the command “Drop what you’re doing and go to Slough!” is irresistible. This is one of those times. Or rather, next week, Friday 9^th November is one of those times, for on that day you should drop what you’re doing and go to Slough for An Evening Of Lugubrious Music And Lopsided Prose. David OutaSpaceman will provide the lugubrious music, and I shall be declaiming lopsided prose from the Hooting Yard archive. You can find details, including a handy map, here, if you scroll down the page a bit.

Addendum : Ten thrilling photographs from the evening can be found here.
