Summary
In the latest Shelf Life, we begin with a clip of Russell Napier speaking at this year's Mistake Of The Year awards at the Library of Mistakes - you can see the whole thing on YouTube (link below). We then discover the wonderful Weekend Of Mistakes, held every year in Hay-on-Wye, on the Welsh/English border. Inspired by the Library of Mistakes, the event shares the Library's mission of encouraging us all to learn from the mistakes of the past – and features a fantastic line-up of speakers in a wonderful setting. Organisers Paul Greatbatch and Alice Sherwood explain all to our regular hosts, Leila Johnston and Fraser Allen, and we also chat to our Librarian Helen Williams and our CEO David Clarke. www.weekendofmistakes.org www.libraryofmistakes.com Mistake of the Year: https://www.youtube.com/live/W6ibPkVvXaQ?si=Rf3N3Bhz7sZb7-kO To get in touch withn us, please email [email protected] or [email protected] Produced by Fraser Allen and Leila Johnston.
