We enjoyed a lovely meal and evening at Judy Bell's home, complete with Irish music in the background. The one day everyone gets to be Irish and enjoy green and Irish cream! Chris brought a photo album of an Irish adventure to help us "set our scene". A delightful time with pleasant conversion.
Our read this month was "The Library at the Edge of the World" by Felicity Hayes-McCoy. It is "an empowering story about the meaning of home and the importance of finding a place where you truly belong". About a whole community that connected in a web of mutual support. One of those fell-good stories which we all enjoy, filled with lovely prose.
"But a librarian should know better than anyone how written words, moving through time and space, could change a person's life.....for millennia, written words had conveyed dreams, visions and aspirations across oceans and mountains....She was part of a process that stretched across distance and time."
Judy shared this St Patrick's Day blessing: "May your pockets be heavy and your heart be light; may good luck pursue you each morning and night."
