We at Exeter Comedy Festival are always keen to branch out (no pun intended) into other fields (well that one probably was), so this year we’re crossing boundaries (oh forget it) and doing our first book talk!
To coincide with the publication of ‘words from the hedge ‘Richard Negus (also known as the force behind popular rural affairs podcast 'Countryslide') will - for one night only - be talking, enthusing and answering questions (some from festival organiser Will Adamsdale) on all things HEDGE, revealing - in his own words - how "These ribbons of Thorn, Hazel, Spindle and Dogwood are so much more than mere decoration or boundary markers...
They are as old as civilisation and as emblematic of the English countryside as chalk streams, hay meadows and oak trees...
And yet they remain on the periphery of public consciousness, often going unnoticed, always unappreciated....
Hedges are a testament to generations of human skill and labour ...
And are essential for much needed wildlife recovery ....”
As pacy and humorous as his book (signed copies available afterwards!), this talk will give you a new take on something you thought you knew and have you clamouring to protect these precious and intriguing ecosystems (and their inhabitants!). Who knows you may even become part of a new generation of hedge-layers!
N.B. This actually is a proper talk by a proper writer and not a spoof (although there are sure to be some comedic off shoots and tendrils!).
