As we move into the final weeks running up to Christmas,
I'm pleased to say that my book Saddleworth Discovery Walks is now into its
second print run. After only 3 months the intial print run sold out and with
the number of daily orders increasing, it is now proving to be a popular
Christmas Present.
When I first set out to write the book, I hoped that it
would be well received in Saddleworth and surrounding areas, however, I could
never have envisaged the interest and demand from further afield. Since the
books publication in August, orders have been received from throughout the
United Kingdom and as far away as Australia, New Zealand and Argentina. True
testament that although people may move away from the area, whether short-term
or longer, Saddleworth remains, for many, home and close to peoples heart.
I'd like to thank you all for purchasing a copy of
Saddleworth Discovery Walks (many of you have ordered several copies), and
for all the positive comments which many people have sent - Thank you.
Navigation
Training Day
During the summer, I hosted a navigation training event
which proved very popular. Due to an increased demand, I will be holding
another training course early in the new year, which will help raise funds for
Oldham Mountain Rescue Team. In order to ensure effective learning, the
course will be limited to 8 people per session. If you are interested in
learning or improving your map reading and navigation skills, please email your
interest to info@saddleworthdiscoverywalks.co.uk . If there is more interest
than the allocated number of places, I will arrange additional courses.
