My final day at the festival today. Decided to be green and cycle and train. When I was waiting on Stonehouse station and the train was 35 minutes late I was getting anxious! I hurtled through the traffic from Cheltenham station arriving with two minutes to go! It was worth it listening to the poet Simon Armitage reading poems, talking and later reflecting on his book the Last Days of Troy. I later went to the Killers of the King which dealt with the fate of the men who signed Charles 1st’s execution. Another well researched book!

Back to earth next week! I had a lovely day back at Wick Court on Tuesday. Children very enthusiastic looking at the birds.
