SOUTH WALES EVENING POST  THURSDAY, JULY 17, 2008  Page 20
Signing for lifeboats
AUTHOR Abrielle Jones will be signing copies of
her self-help book The Time Workshop to raise
money for the RNLI at this weekend's Pennard
   She will be stationed at the lifeboat stall from
1pm and 4.30pm on Saturday*, and £1.50 from the
sale of each book with go [to] the life-saving
organisation.
The three-day Gower carnival kicks off at
7.30pm tomorrow* with a concert by Dunvant
Male Voice Choir.
 N.B.  In the
 Newspaper article,
it was stated that the
author would be at the
lifeboat stall on
  'Sunday'.  
This, I believe should
 have been Saturday which is what I have inserted instead,
 -  whilst for 'tomorrow',
read Friday (18 July).
