My Darwin Day lecture for the British Humanists, set tomorrow for 7:30 at the Institute of Education in London, is now sold out, which pleases me greatly as it seats 1000 people. The announcement is here, but I wanted to add a last-minute note. I will have to depart for a “do” soon after the talk and Q&A, so since there will be books on sale (both FvF and WEIT), I’ve asked for the venue to be opened earlier so I can sign books if people want that. They’ve decided to open the doors of the Institute at 5 p.m., and I’ll try to show up about then to chat with people and sign books. The door to the main hall, however, will still open at 7 p.m., half an hour before the talk.
See you there!

Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow, Jerry. Too bad we can’t bring Theo!
Hopefully this event will be recorded and up on Youtube?
Yes it will.
Will you be visiting Down House while you are here Jerry? It really is an awesome experience to see it.
Will bring my copy of FvF and have studied the secret word š
See you tomorrow!
What was the secret word? I missed it somehow!
Felis silvestris silvestris (European wildcat).

The latin binomial for the Scottish Wildcat. I think it’s actually a trinomial.
May I bring my cat to pose for a selfie with you? She is very pretty and obliging. She loves attention and I’m certain it would make her day. š
Yes, but I don’t know if they’ll allow cats in the venue!
It’s a far cry from the 50p Ploughman’s lunch and a 36p pint of Ruddles. Lunch for under a quid! **
**of course, that was only the start of 5-6 more pints – alas …
I really cannot wait for this, Jerry!
eek! I will have to run over as soon as I finish work… fortunately not too far from Grays Inn Rd.

A do indeed!
