Me and the big house. The festival of writing and ideas runs, in pre pandemic


Me and the big house.
The festival of writing and ideas runs, in pre pandemic times, every June.

We have been attending it for ten years now. Every year!

This year the 2021 managed to go in August.

It was much smaller in terms of attendees but the original small festival feel was back in force with the artists, writers, musicians and speakers all mingling on the lawn.

My best talk was John Banville who seemed to be in jovial form.
I'd still prefer it to run in June though as August is birthday city in our family in August but either way we thoroughly enjoyed it and soaked up the ideas and debated /argued as normal after the talks.
Thank you @writingandideas
