Royal Mail Strikes
As you may be aware Royal Mail workers are holding a series of strikes which are impacting collection and delivery of UK mail.
There is, sadly, nothing we can do about this of course, but would urge anyone ordering a book for Christmas to get in early!

Volume 60, Number 11 / November 2022
Looking forward THE passing of Her Majesty was a sad event, made no less so than it was, to a certain extent, expected given her age. The fact that she hadn’t seemed ill or infirm added, I think, to our sense of shock and loss but few of us were truly surprised. Indeed, after the initial news had sunk in it seemed that the overwhelming feeling was that she had, inasmuch as possible, had a “good” death. She died at an advanced age, in a place she loved, surrounded by at least some of her family and, at least to our knowledge, hadn’t suffered. She also hadn’t had to live for too long without...
