Dear Chick and everyone

our guest author Lorrie Moore has a double booking now on 27 May and I need to

start the recording earlier. Are you and your friends able to arrive at

Broadcasting House at 5pm ?

Sorry for any inconvenience but this is out of my hands.

Can you let me know as soon as you can?

Many thanks

Hi, I'm fairly new to the area (actually in Nunhead) but was interested in joining your book club. Do you mind if I come to your next meeting?

[Chick]

Hi egoode, you are more than welcome. If you don?t manage to read or finish the book don?t worry just come along and meet people.

Cheers

Chick

PS if you pm me your email I will put you on the list.

[Chick]

So lucky, I am going to see the film tonight at the Royal festival hall, the music score being played live by full orchestra!

[lucy cheyne]

Hi there,

I was wondering when the next meeting was and if I could join your book club? I am a keen reader and relatively new to the area.

Many thanks,

Lucy

Hi there,

I've also just moved to the area and really keen to join a Book Club. Unfortunately I'm away on holiday until 3rd July, so will miss the next session in July.

Is there a date and book planned for August - assuming that i'm permitted to join of course!

Thanks,

JB

[Chick]

See you next Wednesday.

[Chick]

send an email address and I will put you on the list. You are more than welcome.

Dear Book clubbers,

I invited Michel Faber to our meeting but sadly he cant come. He did send this though:

Dear Chick,

I don't mind you asking at all, and please send my best wishes to everyone at the book club and tell them that I would have loved to be there. On Wednesday I am actually booked to attend a Canongate event in Ladbroke Grove but I think it's highly likely I will have to cancel this at the last minute.

So maybe I should have asked before.

Look forward to seeing you all on Wednesday.

Chick

[Chick]

Greetings and thanks to everyone who came to the last meeting, I hope you all enjoyed the evening.

The next meeting is Wednesday 6th August and the next book is Woman on the edge of time by Marge Piercy.

See you all then.

[Chick]

Just to remind you of our next meeting.

[Chick]

Blake room in the Clockhouse booked for 8.00pm next Wednesday, see you all then.
