19th September, 2018. Highs and lows of being a History tutor.

As previously stated have been quite heavily involved in events programmed for Heritage Week in both Hull and Barton. As regards Barton nobody turned-up for either guided walk round Baysgarth Park whereas around a hundred turned-up for both guided visits to the medieval great hall at Tyrwhitt Hall. My talk about my housing book had a limited but interested number in audience this resulting in the sale of four books after the talk. As regards the two talks in Hull both were reasonably well attended and received, especially so at the Kardomah, both left me feeling well in myself.

Another objective which has consumed much of my time in the preparation is the new WEA course History of Not Very Nice Things for which the first session was last Monday evening. However, with only five students turning-up the course is unlikely to continue. This left me feeling unhappy in myself.
