Have you read Malcom Gladwell's Tipping Point or Blink?

Anyone interested in coming along, Mon 24 Nov 2008 evening, about ?20?


And has anyone seen the big haired fella speaking before? Is he any good?

They're of the "social observations" genre, an interesting read about stuff that happens with people and society, a bit like Freakanomics. I picked up Tipping Point at the airport and liked it so I bought the other one later, to be honest didn't realise there is/was a fuss about them. If you like non-fiction, people watching and are curious about how and why some things happen in the world and society you will probably like these. It won't change your life but some parts might make you stroke your chin, look skywards and say hmmmmm.


Let me know if that appeals and you want to borrow them.

    • In the proud spirit of stating the bleeding obvious (!) here is some more RSPCA advice re dogs in hot cars and a downloadable leaflet which contains emergency first aid for heatstroke: https://www.rspca.org.uk/adviceandwelfare/pets/dogs/health/dogsinhotcars https://www.rspca.org.uk/documents/1494939/7712578/Dogs In Hot Cars Leaflet.pdf/ade4c043-90ee-7091-c97f-02f047f7b4b3
    • What exactly is the point of having a go at someone who is trying to help and spread useful information? Is the heat getting to people? What does it matter what someone calls dogs?
    • In this heat, our wildlife from bees to birds and squirrels rely on our help. Please think about leaving out a tub of water for them… bees like a shallow dish with rounded stones for them to stand on while they drink.  Doesn’t  take much to help our local wildlife… get the kids to help!!! many thanks x
