Event this weekend

Well I am now back in Plymouth. Totally shattered after a great Grand Prix trip to a very wet Silverstone with Plymouth Citycoach. It will be a day or two before I catch up on all the emails and my Google Reader list still stands at over 1000 articles to view. I will post a full review of my trip later in the week alongside the rest of the Royal Blue collection which continues for a week or so.

For now we have this little event which may interest some:

On Saturday 14th July, Plymouth City Council is hosting Hands on Plymouth's History - 2012 A Year of Celebration, a day of free events for all the family in Plymouth Guildhall.

Hands on Plymouth's History is presented in association with Plymouth and West Devon Record Office (which has its 60th anniversary this year, and will showcase some of the interesting records from its  collections), the Devon Family History Society, and Friends of Devon's Archives.
