We were delighted to have been invited to be part of the rescheduled Community Festival at the Guildhall today! Typically the weather was perfect today - could have done with that first time round, but it was a great day, fantastic to be able to sell books to all of your lovely faces in person again, and listen to talks including speaking about their great book ‘The Log Books’ - available on our site if you missed out! It was also a lovely coincidence that it fell on - we’ll have some news about how you can get your hands on the Golden Ticket soon!
