THE most Cumbrian start to the evening. Off to a poetry reading as Katie Hale - novelist & poet 🌈 loyal sidekick. Got less than 1/2 mile before we were shepherding rogue and vocal lambs back to their parent. A passing sheepdog definitely, maybe helped.

Book ten of 2024 is Peter May’s A Winter Grave. I sussed the whodunnit but not the whydunnit. It was a present and it’s always good to try different genres. #AmReading
