Only using the Bob Marley title for today’s blog because on Tuesday when I was Bird Watching with children from Peckham in the pouring rain one child pointed to the telegraph wire and said look “Three Little Birds” and it was the cue for the rest of us to burst into song. The birds were Goldfinches. I was drenched by the time I came home. It was a surprise we saw 24 species during the day as it never once relented.

Good discussion last night at Book Club. The book was Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant by Anne Tyler. First time I had read one of her books and thought she has much to offer and will read more.

Story Telling in the Round House at Wick Court mainly sticking with some old favourites.

We were underwhelmed by last Sunday’s gig apart from the fantastic fiddle playing, felt the band fell between two stools. Next week have the theatre (Wipers Times) and a humorous talk on cycling to look forward to.

I have just read through the draft of my talented brother Mike’s next book of poems. Excellent! Will write some more about this when it is published.
