We were few in number but the range of poetry we heard was impressive and the theme of ‘Beginnings’ proved a successful one. Old favourites such as Donne, Hardy, Tennyson and Yeats featured and an interesting take was Chris’s quiz on the opening lines of well-known poems. John and Dave Johnson proved very good at this while yours truly failed to trouble the scorers. Over-all it was a highly enjoyable hour and a half.
