23 April 2005 Bookcrossing Meeting

Fopp Cafe, 19 Brown Street, Manchester

 

We met at 10am in Fopp cafe, with our biggest turnout ever (11 people)! We did our usual book exchanging and guzzling of coffee, lattes, hot chocolate and lemonade, followed by a releasing expedition around the city centre. Photos from the event are below. If you have more photos or comments to add to this page, please e-mail them to me at j.m.mcbeth at manchester.ac.uk. Make sure you let us know if you had any of your releases journaled too and we'll make a note of it here!
