Neil Gaiman, who has a connection with Portsmouth was in the city today for two reasons; a small unnamed stretch of road by Southsea sea front has been named after his new book and his first appointment was to unveil the street sign "The Ocean at the End of the Lane", The second reason was "An Evening with Neil Gaiman" at the Pompey Guildhall. Honestly I have been to concerts there with fewer attendees, the place was packed.
Mr Gaiman was very entertaining and self-assured, read his works superbly and answered questions from the audience with spontaneity and wit. All in all a very entertaining evening!
