If any of you ladies are in Oxfordshire at around 3pm on Tuesday (7th Feb.) –

I'm giving a short spiel about The Gin Lane Gazette at a ladies' coffee afternoon. The venue is the utterly beguiling Falkland Arms, at Great Tew, near Chipping Norton (@falklandarms on Twitter). I can promise you a reasonable helping of Georgian oddities, debauchery, and randy sex talk, and if you don't like coffee there are, of course, abundant wines, beers and spirits. You won't get THAT at a parish council meeting. Do come.
