Book club.

Our book club met at the weekend to discuss



It's a serious book with a very glum ending and we didn't do it justice. The discussion was somewhat highjacked by the social scientist lecturers amongst us and many interesting aspects of the novel were not properly considered. But no one was really in the mood for a serious, glum book because the weather was glorious and the young England football team had just won their game.  We all felt more like celebrating. Himself wore his waistcoat in an homage to Gareth Southgate. (It amuses and pleases me that sales of waistcoats have soared. I think that men look great in them, very civilised!)

We sat outside as the sun went down.


There was a wonderful afterglow.
Candles were lit
and citronella candles added
 when the midges started to bite our ankles!

    1. We were beside the Bristol Channel. The changing light on the water is always fascinating, not to mention the shipping going up and down. Telescope and binoculars are always at the ready!
