I'm liking the look of the Scottish crime talk, Iain Banks, Roddy Woomble and the Augustus Brown popular science talk.

I've been to a few before and they've all been really good.

Bernard MacLaverty! Excellent, but whats Irish studies without some Seamus Heaney? And Scottish crime without Chistopher Brookmyre?

This is a really good line-up actually.

Went and got a couple of tickets for the Roddy Woomble event too.

I mean, they're FREE!! Why the heck not? Cannot WAIT to hear Alan Warner reading.

I'm slightly disappointed that this isn't just loads of people saying "fit", "quine" and "loon" for a week or two.
