Just about to leave Jersey after a brilliant time at the @JerseyWordFest. My talk was well attended and received (phew!) and we sold all the copies of the book on the island. Hopefully @Waterstones will have some more in next week.

Paddled 22 km around the beautiful island of Kerrera. My 4th time in the #malin #shippingforecast area. Across some shipping lanes and choppy sea, past impressive castles & ancient rocks. Lovely #seakayaking #getoutside #scotland #travelwriting
