Dear Lists
Apologies for cross posting / duplication.
To repeat Peter Philpott's Laurie Duggan quote from earlier today, "It’s a good thing that poetry needn’t always necessitate a trip to London", and here's some proof in a festival at which Laurie himself will be reading. Love to see you there if you can make it. The sun has shone on the last three Jams, and there's always plenty of conviviality as well as great poetry.
Please contact me BC or Lyndon Davies, my co-organiser, for further details, or for a colour pdf of the flyer for publicity purposes: Lyn is at [log in to unmask] and I'm [log in to unmask] And, please, spread the word ...
