@LiamJLiburd And just a reminder for those who haven’t been to one of our sessions before…

🗣We spend the first 45 minutes or so discussing an article/chapter before being joined by the author, who shares some of their thoughts on the piece, before taking our questions.

Just a heads up that we’re rescheduling our Churchill Archives trip until 2022.

Instead, we’re meeting TOMORROW at the Anchor Pub in Cambridge (on Silver Street) at 6pm for festive drinks!

We hope to see you there, even if you haven’t made it to a session this year. 🌲
