Humanist, socialist, feminist, always a European. Loves books, music, pubs, walks, history, conversations that go in unexpected directions, kindness, community. Once an optimist, generally still hopeful with wobbles.
It really was, all events available via digital tickets until 12 October well worth a look at their website, (not paid to plug it!)and the setting in Blackfriars Priory so beautiful - photo is newly restored scriptorium.

Good morning, I'm gently cursing the neighbour who was out with a chainsaw at 7am, thinking the sky doesn't bode too well for a planned walk and reminding myself I'm lucky to have a roof over my head, food and good coffee #kickingthenegativity wishing you and needy cat a happy day.

Grumpy start to Sunday so am now sitting in the sun, listening to the birds and looking back at photos from Friday's walk in The Heavens (Stroud).
