Benedict will be at the Hay Festival on May 31 for another Letters Live event... Not sure what he's reading but tickets just £15!!

And James Rhodes is also playing that same evening. There's some talk of James going to play for Benedict during his reading, or something. Whether that'll happen I don't know but James mentions it on twitter.

Oooh! I can't wait for this! I LOVE when he reads! YAY!

Oooo, that's exciting. Has anyone got a ticket? I am thinking about it but no-one to go with at the moment. Am I brave enough to go on my own???

Wow Clare, 3000 posts!! Congratulations and so pleased you've used the majority of those posts sharing beautiful Benedict pictures

Wow didn't even notice that !!!

I have a ticket!! As does Rebecca - she's definitely going but I'm having to wait until Monday when I'm back at work to get clearance to go!

I'm praying I can - it's like a dream, pinch me now!!

Yeah, I hope you have a great time
And tell us all about it, of course!

I'll be taking my camera, so you'll hopefully all have scrumptious photos on my return!

Thanks Rebecca - something to look forward to

Ahhhh I am such an idiot! Was out all day yesterday and didn't buy a ticket in the morning when I had the chance. I get home and find the news is announced and no tickets left. I am very cross with myself

Clare and Rebecca - hope you have an amazing time, I will be thinking of you whilst kicking myself!!

Sorry you missed out, Biggles
Clare and Rebecca - will you be seeing James Rhodes perform too? Or is that a different venue?

**Posted by clareiow** May 12, 2014 3:39 pm

Pretend I wasn't shouting.

We'll be waiting in Benedict's pictures thread

God, you'll hear Benedict reading! Enjoy the event, Clare and Rebecca! So sorry for you, Biggles!

I have entered a competition today to try and win tickets - me and a billion other people!! Next time I have the chance I shall be firmly grasping it. Damn you anxiety!

Ooh you girls are so lucky!!!
