Thursday, April 23

A full big table - and a new table, too. Nick Snow came with the cover of his new illustrated book, a thrilling docudrama exposing the hidden story behind the first moon landing: full details are on The Rocket's Trail website. It launches on July 16, the 40th anniversary of the event. Another first was Land of the Lakes, designed by Clive Crook and, unexpectedly, published by Roger Williams, which was handed around. David Merewether had been looking at a digital back for a Haselblad, and talked in terms of 60megapixel pix, while Penny Tweedie was too preoccupied to attend, having lost of zillions of pictures on her external hard drives. It was nice to see Minnie Garnier (who brought news that Emma Freeman was on a photography assignment in Geneva), Kent Barker and Zoe Meyer, who has a most excellent publishing idea that she is pursuing with Ruth Clark.

Thursday night is now curry night at the Bull (£10, including a pint of beer), and the pub began filling up as we left...
