Books have dominated my week. We held our planning meeting for my book club “Beer and Books” on Wednesday night. We have put together a diverse programme of books to read. We are also going to have an evening where we talk about our favourite character from literature- these slightly different nights are always good fun!

Yesterday we had a lovely day starting with a visit to Cirencester. We spent a long time in the wonderful children’s bookshop “Octavia’s”– it is great to see so many books aimed at young people! We then had the afternoon with our grandsons and did the baby sitting so their parents could go out.
