2008 Walmsley weekend10th & 11th May in Robin Hood's Bay
The 2008 Annual General Meeting was held on 10th and 11th May
in Robin Hood's Bay where the new edition of Foreigners was launched. ![]()
Coincidentally, only 2 weeks previously the Yorkshire Post had contained
an interview with comedian and BBC Radio 2 presenter, Mike Harding, who had said that his favourite book was – would you believe? – Foreigners! You can read the article here. ![]() Stephanie Walmsley was presented with a copy of the new book,
which sold
so well throughout the day that by late afternoon all available copies of Foreigners and the recently republished Angler's Moon had sold out. ![]() The afternoon's event was 'Fred's Fishy Tales', told by guest speaker, Fred Normandale, ex-Scarborough fisherman who, despite now being shore-based, is still very much an active member of the Scarborough fishing community. Here's a link to the Fred Normandale website. ![]() |
