Canoexpo 2008 (Stoneleigh Park, Coventry), Brookbank’s canoeing and kayaking show is coming to a close and exhibitors are making furtive moves to clear away their stock. We’ve had a good show here on the Pesda Press and Cordee books stand. Here’s a few photos from yesterday and today, pressing the flesh and selling the books.
Several of our authors were either exhibiting, helping with the running of the event or willing to help out, giving the visitors the benefit of their advice on matters watery and bookish.
The visitors flocked to shop for books.
Saturday night’s party proved that Mexico is the world’s most popular culture. Morag, Danny and Simon could barely contain themselves.
Franco and Richard (from Cordee) couldn’t contain their competitive side.
Sunday morning brought another chance to chinwag and get together with some of the authors.
From left to right: Peter Wood (Pesda Press), Gordon Brown (author of Sea Kayak), Jim Krawiecki (author of Welsh Sea Kayaking), Franco Ferrero (Pesda Press) and Derek Hairon (author of Sit-on-Top Kayak). Thanks to Jim Krawiecki for the photos.
Good to see snaps of the afterparty, what a rave it must have been, brilliant event can’t wait till next year!
