National Poetry Day - Ian McMillan in Yorkshire

National Poetry Day Ian Mcmillan

Today Thurs 8 October 2009, here in the UK it is National Poetry Day.

In honour of this day my picture today is well known Yorkshire poet Ian Mcmillan, seen recently performing here in Saltaire, Yorkshire. Ian is not just a poet, he is a very witty and amusing man, I would recommend any performance that he gives.

I will be posting more pictures from Make, Bake and Grow over the next few days.

  1. Nice to see Ian - I remember when he first started writing poetry back in the 70s while working in a tennis-ball factory in Darfield - he's come on a long way since then.

  2. You caught him with a really interesting expression on his face!
