Looks like it was a really nice day for the event. :)

It was. The stalls were on the stands so could keep out of the sun too and not get sunburnt so much.. though I think I may of got a little burned anyway.

Awesome! Way to spread the word!

Thanks Jay!

When I was telling Rick and his girlfriend about it at work earlier in the week his girlfriend said that from the sounds of it I'm becoming a local BookCrossing legend.

That amused me

We did one in Canberra two years ago and it was a blast! I am glad you had a nice day for it. and you sound like you had a lovely day too.

Was a good day. I did another one earlier in the year at the Waitangi Day Picnic (hope to do another one next year for the community picnic, was a lot of fun).

So far I've gotten one JE from it and one new member.

any new members out of all the enquiries/books?

Just checking the members for the West Coast now, so far looks like only one new member has joined up as a result of the stall and I'm pretty sure its an artist I know through work.

Have had one book journaled as well by an AF.

Looks like a great day - and a great effort! Hope you get some new members.

Not many JE or new members yet but still early days. They may want to read the books before they journal them.

I did get a lot of people smiling and thanking me so that makes it worth it.
