Talk by Camilla Herrmann at the Friends of Thomas Plume's Library AGM

The Friends of Thomas Plume's Library invite you to a talk by Camilla Herrmann: "Sailing Around the UK"

Camilla Herrmann and her husband Sam Brown always wanted to sail around Britain in their 33ft yacht Kalessin of Orwell, but after Sam suffered a stroke in 2012 which left him seriously disabled and with limited speech, it really wasn't a practicable option. In 2023 Sam died, and Camilla decided to devote the summer of 2024 to sailing anti-clockwise around (most of) Britain in his memory. In this talk, she describes the cultural highlights of the trip, and explains that reaching them on your own boat gives a sense of satisfaction that you never get on a tour bus.

The talk is part of the Friends of Thomas Plume's Library's AGM. There will be a short AGM before the talk, and a glass of wine/soft drink, and light refreshments will be available in the interval. Entry is free. All are welcome.
