Monday, January 12


First get-together in 2009. So much to talk about, including...
Revolution! Cuba '58, Kent's new book about the Cuban revolution, published on-line. Did you hear him on Radio 4?
Penny Tweedie's classic Aborigine picture snapped up by a new book on The Survivors, about indigenous peoples around the world.
Unfortunately neither of them were there to receive our accolades...

However... Bruce Hemming was there to tell us about his photographic project of Lewes bonfire night. It will be exhibited later this year in Pelham House in Lewes, and in Hastings Town Hall.
The usual suspects were joined by Caroline Radula Scott, sub and editor, her first visitation since th old Grouch days in Goudhurst. And was nice to see Minnie Garnier again, though I was at the far end of the table and failed to catch her news.
