Dear Bookgroup,

 

We have been invited to Radio four’s book club in December.

Wednesday 13 December at 1830  – A ‘classic’ Bookclub. We’ll be joined by crime novelist Elly Griffiths who will be our expert guide to The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins . So please come along with questions/observations/opinions  about The Moonstone (this isn’t a programme about Elly’s own novels ).

The program is in Broadcasting house at 18.30, you need to be there at 18.00 and we can go for a cheep Thai meal after. 

I have tickets for Hamnet at the Garrick theatre on 10th January at 19.30.  We read the book some time ago. So far Gail, Alice, me Caroline and Shelagh, Kathleen Gillen & Joe Cooper have signed up. There is one ticket left, they are cheap: £28.00 if you want to come let me know ASAP other wise I’ll cancel the one left.

The food is superb by far the best Indian food you will ever have.

And finally, our next meeting is Wednesday 8th November at 8.00pm in the Blake room at the Clockhouse. In future we will have one month face to face and the next by zoom so our friends in Canada and France can take part.

The book is Pearl by Sian Hughes:

    • I am faintly amused by the cries of horror when the overtly political actions of Southwark Council Labour (their car hatred does after all form part of their manifesto) is countered by what might possibly be political action of others (although there is some evidence to support it being a groundswell of purely local and not party-affiliated activity). Who is behind Southwark Labour party one might ask - is it Militant Trotskyites? From where are they being funded? The Kremlin, Beijing?
    • Ha ha, some people really don't like an opinion that differs to theirs do they! Bravo One Dulwich - you're magnificently rattling the cages of people who don't want to hear a differing opinion and the fact they get so irate about it is the icing on the cake! Some spend so much emotional energy trying to convince themselves One Dulwich is some shadowy, agitator state-funded lobby group when all they are is a group of local residents giving a voice to the majority of residents impacted by the measures.
    • @Earl, Be assured, it is purely a local group. In fact it is a genteel group of Dulwich area residents, mostly ladies , who are a little  reluctant to publish their individual names as they do not wish to be targets for hostility from internet trolls. Local residents who attended the anti-LTN gatherings in Dulwich would have easily recognised the active members of the group. Should you have any queries about funding, it is quite easy to send them an email.
    • Hi  I have a spare old wheelbarrow that you could have for free. You’d need to come and collect it from Telegraph Hill, so drop me a message if you’re still looking and we can arrange a time best wishes carrie
