Much to write about both professionally and socially. I’ll start with the Story Telling today. I went to Stroud College and worked for an hour with students (16 to 18 year olds) on story telling techniques and how they might help them with getting a job. Also told a new story I learnt from Scotland that went down well. Afterwards as I was drinking coffee with Maria their tutor I met several of my old pupils from school who asked if I would come in and work with them. I was very touched by their enthusiasm. As if to emphasis my potential versatility I had an enquiry today from an Infant school (they want stories from \u00a0India and Pakistan). Clare then came in and asked if I would be prepared to\u00a0do some stories \u00a0with SP3\u00a0 (females who had worked in education in the Stroud area). So a wide range of stories likely to come up in future weeks! I am still writing regularly (although not this weekend) on my dream story.<\/p>\n
Will be telling a story in the 3 Horseshoes Frampton on the night of Weds 18th December (from 8 p.m.) where brother Mike is our special guest performing his poems. If you want a good entertaining evening come along \u00a0it is free!<\/p>\n
Now a brief summary of social outings. Yesterday we were among a group of guests\u00a0at a \u00a0delightful dinner at\u00a0Burleigh Court for our good friends Dave\u00a0and Dorothy Bolland Golden Wedding. It was a lovely occasion and enjoyed talking to the many different members of the family who I have got to know over the years. In the evening Bernie (an old mate) joined at Stroud Sub rooms to see the Oyster Band. Superb!<\/p>\n
Wick Court has been fun Saturday and today. Children very enthusiastic especially when they saw the Little Owl!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
