The Cambridge talk was very enjoyable – thanks! Are the “more complicated than that” T-shirts that you mentioned available anywhere?

Aargh! I missed this.

Any returns for the Bloomsbury gratefully accepted (and paid for).

Now, if you want some serious debate about science and health issues you cannot miss CAMexpo 2008. http://www.camexpo.co.uk/camexpo2008/public/enter.aspx

Keynote speakers include Patrick Holford (‘How to Quit and not feel S**t) and there are some educational seminars: ‘Hot Stone Fusion’ and ‘Deep Organ Massage’.

Did they forget to invite Ben or did he turn them down?

My eyes are failing, I see no mention of Edinburgh. If I wasn’t being made redundant I’d fly to London for the Carols for the Godless. A wonderful idea!

What was that about literacy tests? I meant to say Golden Triangle. Doh.

Are you doing any more in London in the next few weeks?
I’m leaving the country behind to find greener pastures!

That’s four votes for Ireland. Come Ben. We’ve got stout and boiled vegetables.

I have to echo what The Biologista and BigEoinO say, as we are awash in a veritable sea of woo over here – we’re drowning in the stuff. Come over and throw us a lifeline!

I feel a wave of jealousy, is this going to be televised at all?

I’m going to the talk in Cambridge, can’t wait. I think you’re doing a speech for a psychologists’ convention as well, which my dad is off to

Me too. I have six tickets, and so far three of them are definites. My friends are so rubbish.

So, if anyone has missed out, I will post nearer the time if I still have a couple going.

Have to agree Ben, your miniblog is the best thing about the site. Sometimes I send those links to people and let them think I found them myself. Is that so wrong?

When is your world tour going to be Ben? Have you ever done a gig up north, there does seem to be less Bad science round here, mainly because we are all tight ‘£3.50 for some sugar pills your having a laugh!’ but also less Guardian readers so I guess ill have to trek to London someday.

Not sure what your following is like in Ireland but it would be really great to see you talk here. This place is quack heaven and certainly needs a good dose of scepticism.
