Regular Events

Reading Group

This group meets on the third Thursday of each month at 2pm in the library. Books

Have you read:
The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown?
The Big Picture by Douglas Kennedy?
Selected Poems by Wallace Stevens?
His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman?
The Last Deception of Tabitha Wentwood by Imogen De La Bere?
The Book of Guys by Dave Barry
Nostromo by Joseph Conrad?
Coming Home by Rosamond Pilcher?
The Glass Bathyscaphe by Alan Macfarlane & Gerry Martin?

We have, and we’ve told one another about them at our monthly meetings. If you've recently read a book that you think others would enjoy or wish to hear about books that others have enjoyed, simply turn up and take part in the group. Membership is free to members of the library except for a small contribution towards the cost of a cup of tea. Meetings have lasted until about 4pm, depending on the numbers of those attending. All are welcome!

This is not a reading group where everybody reads the same book and thrashes it to death with literary criticism but a meeting of people who have found a book they like which they wish to share with others. Hopefully your book will have been found on the library shelves or if not perhaps you think it ought to be!

Writing Group

This group meets on the first Friday of each month at 2pm in the librwriterary.

Have you ever  tried to write something?

Have you a poem or a short story tucked away?

Or would you like to write but can’t get started?

Perhaps you have had an interesting life and would like to tell others, maybe your children or grandchildren?

If you enjoy writing or simply wish to begin, why not join our WRITING GROUP?
Membership is free to members of the library except for a small contribution towards a cup of tea. Meetings last until about 4pm, depending on the numbers of those attending. We have had all sorts of work presented, from poems, to short stories, to short articles about subjects of interest. What have you got to show us or tell us about? We are very kind to one another and try to be encouraging!!
