Highlights – Saturday

We’ve had a couple of days to: recover, take stock, download photos, mop up the spilled ice-cream and generally clear things away after HIPUM and so it seemed like a good time to post some highlights of the weekend.

We have had incredibly positive feedback about the event and it is lovely to say that we received no negative feedback at all. The museum was really well attended, tours were full, the evening event was a sell out.

Coming up in the next few posts, we’ll have highlights from Sunday, the tours, the evening event and more. For now, here are some highlights from Saturday.

We put up signs in the morning to help people find their way around the walking tour.
