BULMER! WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOODLING ON THAT PIECE OF PAPER BOY!!

Artist Tim Bulmer caught not paying attention in class!

The final day of the Bog Books launch at War Weekend in Pickering was just as good as the two previous ones with the town still buzzing with excitement. Everyone was in good sprits considering there was a War on! Some people were coming back to buy more Bog Books as presents for friends and family for Christmas and others were discovering us for the first time.

We have all had great fun over the past three days and would like to thank everyone who came in to have a look at what we were doing. We would especially like to thank every single person who bought a Bog Book this weekend whether it was for themselves or another...we hope you have as much fun reading it as we did writing, illustrating, designing and selling it!

Another massive thanks goes to everyone involved from our side of the counter this weekend...here goes...

Tim Bulmer, Sarah Bulmer, Josie & Becky, Gary Davies, Cheryl-ann Taylor & Baby Lennon, Kate Miller, Maxine Taylor & Lucas Taylor and of course Abby McClymont from the Yorkshire Air Ambulance for bringing lots of YAA freebies for you all to enjoy. Also, author of Yorkshire Pudding 'n' All That Tripe, Ian Bowie, was there in spirit as he is in Finland at the moment.

So there we have it, the end of a very successful launch for Bog Books, see you all soon!

GREENGRASS GIVES BOG BOOKS THE THUMBS UP!

Now then, these Bog Books look great lad!

With so many people dressed up in 1940's clothing this weekend is was a bit bizarre to bump into a character from the 1960's tv series Heartbeat, the wheeler dealer known as Claude Greengrass! (Well he's actually a lookalike but he does look like him a lot!) We showed Greengrass "Yorkshire Pudding 'n' All That Tripe" and he loved it! A true Yorkshireman we thinks!!

The day went really well, even better than the Friday actaully which was amazing. We opened at 9.00am and there were people waiting to come in, it was fantastic. The word had obviously been well spread that we were in town and people flocked to the shop all day to get their Tim Bulmer signed Bog Books and prints.

The parade was excellent too, so many people in costume making their way down the market place right past The Ginger Pig shop was a real sight. We had a great vantage point from the upstairs window and took loads of photos, some of which we've attached below.

So, after a hectic two days we are looking forward to the final day of the Bog Books shop at The Ginger Pig. So come on down and get your signed books while you can...see you there!
