Strangely, you didn't mention that you were asked to sing the rat
song from 'Coraline' at the Fantasy Fair Q&A session today. Possibly
because, and I quote, "This is the weirdest thing I've ever been
asked".
Thanks for coming back to the Netherlands!

You're welcome. I very cleverly didn't mention it, because if I mention it then every reading I do across Europe someone will ask me to sing the whole Coraline rat song, and probably be disappointed when I refuse. But yes, I was asked to sing the rat song, and I did. If Henry Selick actually makes the Coraline movie I think me and Stephin Merritt and Daniel Handler should do the rat songs. We could be the creepiest rats in the world.
So... next stop Portugal. If there's a hiatus in these reports, it means I'm having trouble getting online and the hotel computer is nookless.
