Knickers on the tarmac

First lesson of the road trip. Zip your suitcase before you lift it into the van! I have cemented my position as the designated blonde of the trip.

We have kicked off the tour at the Christchurch library this afternoon, and gotten over the first gig nerves. I can see it is going to be great fun, and also a terrific way to be exposed to different kinds of writing. Christchurch got a little treat with David Geary roping in a couple of local actors to read part of his play The Farm, so there was poetry, satire, novels and a fab start.

Next stop, Fairlie (via a couple of second hand book shops!)
