It's very relaxed down here a million miles from the Smoke so we're all having a great time being playful.<br><br>I did some poetry yesterday for the lunchtime open reading which was lots of fun (pix and maybe vid will follow at some point). Bob, the organiser, sets up his events in a lovely non-elitist way so anyone can have a go and not feel intimidated. <br><br>I really do love the atmos of co-operation, growth and friendship at these arts events, unlike certain other circles which should be setting standards of co-operation, growth and comradeship.<br><br>Which brings me to your <a href="http://averypublicsociologist.blogspot.com/2008/04/branch-meeting-politics-of-swp.html" rel="nofollow">April post </a>which I just read and enjoyed very much. Sober, thoughtful, it reached out in a comradely way only to be bitten off at the elbow. Such a shame.Madam Miaowhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10237951918529887305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244044300216345080.post-15329362118907791192008-05-10T23:20:00.000+01:002008-05-10T23:20:00.000+01:00Hope it all goes really well.
