Harvest Mouse!

On Monday last, Bob and I were guests of our friends from Cowper Chapel at their Harvest Lunch. After some delicious fish and chips, there was a choice of gateau and ice cream, then tea and coffee. A simple meal, requiring minimal effort on the part of the group, with plenty of opportunity to sit and chat. Many of those present live alone, and appreciated enjoying food with good company, which they had not needed to prepare. I was providing the after-dinner entertainment, so I showed them one of my mice, and recited a favourite poem by John Betjeman. One which combines themes of Church, Harvest and mice. It was very well received.
