Dear Book group, Many thanks to those of you who came fro our end of year meal, a thoroughly good night. We have had a good year with three mainstream authors coming to see us, Michel Faber, Rob Shearman and Evie Wylde. We also had a local philosopher come in to lead a discussion on consciousness after we read a book on atoms and where they come from. We are stardust. Thanks for your continued support. I have benefited from having such a large genre of books to read. The radio four book club has also been fun and we may well go back next year. So all the best for Christmas and the new year. The next meeting is January 18th in the Clockhouse. The book H is for Hawk took a bit of getting into but now I am thoroughly enjoying it. Hoots & haggis,
