Radio four book club today at 4.00pm

I am not talking about my path, but pavements that are treacherous. It isn?t unreasonable to expect the council to grit the roads which at least would make it safer.

I am really sorry I described it as a fashion.

Blake Room booked for the 21st.

Dear James, Why don?t the council grit the back roads? The Gardens and the area around them are treacherous.

Thanks for that link. I didn?t mean to trivialise such a serious issue. Angelina Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > you may find this article interesting.

Maybe fashion isn't the correct word, fad maybe. What would you call it?

I have pulled this because it was stupid & crass and has upset some people.

Dear book group, I am sorry but I have to change the date of our next meeting from 14th March to the 21st. I hope this is ok and you can still come to this meeting. All the best, Chick.

Thanks to everyone who came to our meeting last night despite the ghastly weather. A very interesting discussion. Our next meeting is on March 14th in the Blake Room at the Clockhouse. Our next book is The Snowman by Jo Nesb?. It's also the next Radio four book club which is on the 5th of April. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Snowman_(Nesb%C3%B8_novel) All the best,

Meeting tonight 14th.

I was abducted by aliens last week.

We have been invited to take part in a Radio Four book club recording with James Naughtie. It will be on April 5th at Broadcasting House. The book to be read is The Snowman by Jo Nesb?. This is open to all and if you want to attend PM me. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Snowman_(Nesb%C3%B8_novel)

It's opened again as a restaurant but they still have some lagers. Menu looks good and am going at the weekend.

One more reminder: Our next meeting will be February 14th in the Clockhouse upstairs in the Blake room at 8.00pm.

Just a reminder that our next meeting is February 14th in the Clockhouse

Dear book group, I have had a look at "For Whom The Bell Tolls" and it's over 500 pages so I sugest we do "A Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley. We can do "For Whom The Bell Tolls" another time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brave_New_World About our man: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldous_Huxley Our next meeting will be February 14th in the Clockhouse upstairs in the Blake room. For those of you coming to the BBC on Thursday please can I have your two questions? And we have to be at Broadcasting House at 5.00pm. We will be fineshed by 7.00pm and then there is the Korean restaraunt if you like. It's very reasonable and the food is superb. A big welcome to Jacqueline! All the best Chick.

Greetings, Thanks to every one who came last night, a quiet meeting due to illness including me. Our next book is ?For Whom The Bell Tolls? by Ernest Hemingway. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_Whom_the_Bell_Tolls I haven?t got a date for next month but will let you know asap. For those of you who are booked on the radio four book club can you please confirm that you are coming, great if you can but fine if you can?t but please let me know. (except Sheila who has) It?s on the 18th January and we need to be at Broadcasting House for 5.15pm. You also need to think of two questions to ask and send them to me soon.

Just a reminder that our next meeting is next Wednesday in the Clokchouse.

Just a reminder that our next meeting is 10th January in the Clokchouse.
