For anyone who is as yet unaware, the next item for consideration is Richard Jefferies' autobiography 'The Story of my Heart.' If you can't get hold of a real-life copy on actual paper it can be downloaded for free. The following site is just one of many.

If this is not to your taste (and there is a good chance that it may not be) you are welcome to read and discuss anything with a local flavour: Alfred Williams or Francis Kilvert spring to mind, or from slightly further afield Ivor Gurney or Laurie Lee. William Beckford for those who like a dollop of Arabian decadence with their Sunday roast.

It would also be good to talk about some poetry for once. I'll leave it up to you to find some local poets.

In case you don't know, we'll be meeting at 11 o'clock on the 7th March.
