Sunday was bright and hot and we were off to Hobart again to follow a walk in the morning about William Cuffay, a leading Chartist. The walk was a really good experience and although we walked miles we saw a lot of great architecture and we learnt a great deal about convict history.
The walk was a dramatic affair and included readings from newspapers detailing events of the time, we all had a good laugh and at other times it was very sad and thought provoking.
After the walk was over we walked back to Rennie's car and went off to North Hobart to find a bakery where we could buy something for lunch. Having achieved this we went back to a park to eat it. Rennie was determined that I should be I time and rushed us off to the venue I needed to read my notes so went off to another bar to do that. The afternoon went well and every one seemed pleased with my input.
When the talks were over we stayed for a beer and chatted before heading back to Guilia's for a wonderful pasta meal.
There is something very pleasing about finishing an event you have planned for months and talks you have worked on for a long time.
After the meal we headed back to Rennie's where an early night seemed very appropriate.
The history school went well and all concerned seemed to be very pleased, it was a fantastic time and everyone had been so helpful and kind it was a privilege to do the whole thing. At the end I was given a bottle of wine and a Tasmanian cheese which was a really nice gift.
So a job that went really well with a goup of really nice people, who could ask for more?
