  2. So why not just say black?
  3. Why do you describe them as IC3?
  4. I'll second that!
  5. Dear book group, We have been invited to a recording of BBC 4 book club with Jim Naughtie. From Dymphna Flynn who is the producer: I?d welcome a group of you along on Thursday 16th January to talk to JAMES MEEK on the People?s Act of Love. To arrive at 1740, BBC Broadcasting House London W1A 1AA, finishing at 1915 Here?s a review from when it was first published https://bookpage.com/reviews/4437-james-meek-peoples-act-love Very best Dymphna These events are always good fun. Naughtie is very disarming and charming as is Dymphna. You get ushered up to the Boardroom and are given a glass or two of wine. The atmosphere is very relaxed. You will need to read the book and send in two questions. If on the night you feel too shy to ask that's fine. Nearby there is a Thai restaurant which is cheep & cheerful. So if you would like to go then let me know and I will put you forward. All the best, Chick
  6. Thanks.
  7. I already hate them.
