Wednesday afternoon we had our book group meeting at the library. The building that is away from the main town street and up steps.. So I walk, up the ramp, what we call the 'long' walk.; the one good thing is that it ups my daily steps!
A recently new joined member wasn't there and I was very glad because, last month, all she could say about the book was that it was rubbish! She said that several times. I found that very offensive.. how rude! The person who runs the group said nothing about that comment, so I was going to this time. But she wasn't there!
The meeting was 12md to1:00, so ends at our lunch time. We usually trot off to Costa for a cheese toasty and coffee, no cake, we eat our own SW Hi-fi bar! When we came out, it was tipping down with rain, I wear one of those plastic hats! I'm not getting my hair wet! My mac only covers 3/4 of me , so couldn't wait to get home to get changed. I hate rain... At home we watched the rain coming down in sheets on our perfectly tidy garden, hurrah!! Just what it needed.

Your garden is looking beautiful. I have one sad rose in a pot and several olive trees in pots. I took down the umbrella sheltering the palm, think it can cope now it's in the 20c's.
Books are very subjective arn't they, it's what makes for a good discussion sometimes, even if you didn't enjoy a book you can usually find something positive about it, to just dismiss it as 'rubbish' seems a bit negative.
