Live at the Womens' Institute
Jan. 3rd, 2007 11:58 pmTonight I've been out on tour with the Ulverston Writers, giving readings to the Crook WI in the southern fringes of the Lake District.
I like these trips, which are designed both to entertain and to flog copies of the UW anthology Winter Tales. I get to do a public reading, which I enjoy shamelessly and play to the gallery.. The Womens' Institutes invariably make a super audience, and the food provided is invariably of a high standard. There was a particularly self-indulgent sherry trifle on offer in this case.
I've no doubt the surroundings were very beautiful, but it was too murky a January night to appreciate it.
