What did you do for Chorlton Book Festival?
Well 40 hardy souls turned out yesterday and walked Chorlton’s past.
To be accurate the 40 of us walked from the village green to the old parish church, back via the Horse and Jockey and on to the Edge Theatre for a meal of soup and mulled wine.
Along the way I hope the 39 found out something about the history of where we live.
And they were a mixed band. Dale and Elizabeth came over from north Manchester, there was a family from Whalley Range and two were new to Chorlton.
Dale who used to work at Chorlton never misses one of the walks and along with a few others, drawn back by the fascination with Chorlton's history.
So thank you to Beverly from the library service who as ever worked tirelessly to make the day a success and to Peter and Linda who arrived with the new book and to the faithful who turn out each years for the
event.
And also a thank you to staff at the Edge who put on a fine spread.
See what I did there ? I used a historical phrase.
That said the Festival is not over and there are lots more events.
So I suggest you get on down there, celebrating both Chorlton and our own book festival.
And that really is it.
