Dear list,

I would be very keen for a reading group as well. Glasgow is a little too
far for me to venture though so online would work best.

I recorded Marder the other day - the talk was an absolute joy - and am
wrestling with the technology to try and get it online (basically this
involves transcribing it onto a series of wooden cylinders, then asking
some squirrels to tell me what it says). But soon.

best wishes,

Mat
