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.

Dear book group,

We have been invited to attend radio four's book club again:

Ayọ̀bámi Adébáyọ̀ - Stay With Me

Wednesday 10 July at 1830 - BBC Broadcasting House, London W1A 1AA

We need to arrive at broadcasting house which is just north of Oxford Circus by 18.00.

You need to have read the book and send me two questions which I send to the producer.

These are always good fun and quite a buzz to hear your self on the radio when it gets transmitted.

We then go for a cheap Thai meal around the corner.

Please let me know if you want to come along.

Chick

      maybe u should speak to some of the kids parents who are constantly mugged who can’t get a police officer to investigate and tell them to stick to gb news, such a childish righteousness comment for your self  All jokes aside there is young kids constantly getting mugged in our area, there is masked bike riders going around armed with knife’s, all I’m saying is police resources could be better used, police wont use there resources to respond to car theft but will happily knock on someone’s door for hurtful comments on the internet which should have us all thinking 🤔

      I recommend you stick to GB News following that last comment.  Hate crime is still a crime.  We all think that we know best.
