Milton Contact had invited the residents of Landbeach to attend Peter Newman's book Launch of Nimrod - A Memoir of Mishief and Mishap on Peter's behalf for last Friday. Peter had booked the Village hall, arranged food and drinks for what he saw as a celebration for the Landbeach community, of which Nimrod, the cat in tale, had also been a part of.
Over 40 guests attended to hear Peter read extracts from his book and then hand over a special copy to his Grandson Richard to whom it was dedicated.
Whilst the party then got into full swing with guests enjoying the wine and Grace's (Peters Wife) excellend finger buffet, Peter and I were busy with the book sales and signing.
The evening was a tremendous success for Peter, with copies of the book going like hot cakes!
Some guests were already through several chapters of the book during the evening and I'm looking forward to some positive reviews in the near future that can be posted on the web.
