I really enjoyed giving a talk to a wonderful audience at the Daphne du Maurier Festival this morning, in the beautiful coastal town of Fowey.
I’m very grateful to everyone who bought tickets and came – so wonderful to be greeted by a packed out theatre at 10am on a wet and misty Wednesday morning in deepest Cornwall.
A huge thanks too to all those who bought a copy of the book. Waterstones thought they had things covered with 35 copies, but they all flew off the shelf and so apologies to those that left empty-handed.
Another big thanks to Jonathan, Kate and the Festival team who made it all feel so relaxed; there is a talent to this, one that they possess in abundance.

I have just found out what my plans for Sunday are, and they do not involve roast lunches, watching Narnia for the sixty-second time or trying to get our remaining stash of slightly green logs to burn.
At 2 o’ clock I am being interviewed by Adrian Phillips from Bradt Travel Guides at the Destinations Travel and Holiday Show in Birmingham.
Hope to see you there, or if you live a bit south of that (towards the midday sun) then perhaps at the Oxford Literary Festival on Wednesday 24th March? Or could it be that you like the taste of the Atlantic and can be found dreaming of Manderley, in which case I will look forward to our meeting at the Daphne du Maurier Festival on the 19th May.
More times and places – where I will be describing life without a copy of ‘The Natural Navigator’ book…
