Claude discovers DISCOVER

What a busy weekend Claude and Sir Bobblysock this week!

Early on Saturday morning, while Mr. and Mrs. Shineyshoes were out doing their shopping, Claude and Sir Bobblysock decided to go DISCOVER Children's Story Centre to watch Alex T Smith do the very first event for the book CLAUDE IN THE CITY.

Claude packed his suitcase with things to entertain Sir Bobblysock on the train (this included a magazine - 'Snazzy Sock Monthly', a juicy bone baguette and a dog spotter's handbook incase there were any exciting dogs to spot)....

There were TWO workshops and Claude and Sir Bobblysock went to both as they didn't have anything else to do and Sir Bobblysock wanted to keep an eye on everything.

Here (above) is a picture a very nice person called Michelle ( who works here) took of Claude listening intently to what Alex T Smith was talking about and trying not to blush with embarrassment over the picture on the board of himself and Sir Bobblysock dancing in their underpants with an alien...

After the events, Alex T Smith signed some books and talked to the very nice children about Claude and looked at their drawing which were SPLENDID.

This little girl is called Juliette and her pictures were marvelous. Sir Bobblysock thought that they were better than Alex T Smith's....

All in all it was a very nice day and everyone enjoyed themselves very much.

Claude, Sir Bobblysock and Alex T Smith would like to say a great big thank you to everyone who came to the events and all the lovely people at Discover as well as Michelle at Arena and Alison Eldred who helped out and made sure everything went smoothly.
