I occasionally talk on radio and in front of other people, although strangely I am rarely invited back.
I talked about motorways with Laurie Taylor on Thinking Allowed here.
I talked about television with Lauren Laverne here.
I talked about the history of cultural studies here.
I talked to Tal Zalmanovich about Armchair Nation on the New Books Network here.
You can listen to my inaugural lecture at LJMU here.
Dr Moran, just in case your interested, —[My name is David Vinter, I am nearly 80, but grey matter still OK].
Consequently, I was schooled through WW2, and as a Lincolnshire country lad have written my memoires of that time, should you wish to see them for any comparison, please just ask, and I will download them for you.
At age 32 and recently married, I became a mature student at Nottingham University, reading
Jt Hons Economics /Agricultural Economics.
Regards, David Vinter. vinterdav@aol.com

Dear David – thanks for your interest in my blog and for getting in touch. It would have been great to look at it a couple of years ago as I was looking at a lot of wartime diaries for an article I was writing about diaries. I wonder though if you have thought of donating it to the Great Diary Project based in London – they would be very interested. best wishes Joe

I have just started your book On Roads. It looks very good already. I didn’t know about the M45 being a relic of the Macmillan era.

I will be using piece from you. (‘human shaped hole’… If you Should Fail p146.) in the funeral service for my late daughter in law next week. I think it is a nice way to say so many things.
Take care
