@KiwiAusUsa1 Great, hanks for letting me know. I hope you enjoy it!

@KayakForecast just thought I'd let you know that your book, Moderate Becoming Good Later is now available on Amazon here in the States. Happy to say my copy arrived today! Happy New Year to all!

@Maggiecpallen Thanks Maggie, it was hard but worth it!

@KayakForecast just finished your book and so lovely to get to know Toby through his adventures. I can’t imagine how hard it must have been to finish the book at times but thank you for sharing his story.

Had a brilliant time at the @kendalmountain festival and the @KendalBookFest lovely to have a full audience and to tell Toby’s story and my own.

Great to hear Katie Carr (@KayakForecast) on this episode of Paddling the Blue talking about Moderate Becoming Good Later, her brother Toby’s love for paddling and life, and how paddling the Shipping Forecast is bringing her closer to family 🌊 Listen here paddlingtheblue.com/e/99-katie-car…

@NickJRogers21 @kendalmountain Ah thanks Nick, glad you enjoyed the talk!

Just thinking about my next speaking gig. Looking forward to appearing at the @kendalmountain on Nov 19. Apparently it’s quite booked up already. Get tickets here tickets.kendalmountainfestival.com/events/19-11-2…

Interviewed on this month’s Paddling The Blue Podcast. I really enjoyed chatting about Toby, the book and my own kayaking adventures. paddlingtheblue.com/e/99-katie-car…

@johnniedoors @JerseyWordFest @Waterstones Hi Hank, thanks for commenting, I’m glad you enjoyed it!

@KayakForecast @JerseyWordFest @Waterstones It's good to hear that your trip to Jersey went well. We (Johnny and Marietta) were fortunate enough to meet both you and your aunt in Tobermory ( for Nick Ray's homecoming)when we bought a copy of the book from you. I've finished it and I'm sure Toby would be very proud.

Just about to leave Jersey after a brilliant time at the @JerseyWordFest. My talk was well attended and received (phew!) and we sold all the copies of the book on the island. Hopefully @Waterstones will have some more in next week.

@richshez @JerseyWordFest Thanks Rich. Glad you enjoyed it!

Very moving and entertaining hour from @KayakForecast at the @JerseyWordFest. A tale of adventure travel and grief

Glad the talk went well yesterday. Sorry to anyone who finds they can’t put the book down!

@MatthewPope @JerseyWordFest Ah thanks Matt, sorry to have missed you in Jersey. Glad our books got to hang out though!

Sorry that I cant stay for @KayakForecast 's talk at @JerseyWordFest today. Our books briefly overlappped on the table though. Have a great day Katie!

Off for a swim before my talk at @JerseyWordFest this afternoon. I’m ready to share my story writing the book as well as Toby’s paddling the #shippingforecast #grief #adventure #writinglife #seakayaking

I’ll be interviewed live on @BBCJersey radio at 12.00 (uk) today, as part of @JerseyWordFest You can listen here. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/li…

@jon_theo Haha it is possibly the county with the greatest water to land ratio….

@KayakForecast That’s yet another of your talks I can’t attend & more’s the pity. I’d very much like to have asked how landlocked little Rutland succeeded in producing two truly remarkable kayakers in Toby and Sarah Outen.

Looking forward to chatting on the Book Club on #mossymorning on @BBCJersey next week and to visiting beautiful Jersey for the @JerseyWordFest the week after.
