Lovibonds provided a very special ambience for the book launch.
Here we were, people who love poetry, together with people who love and make beer.
It is always a pleasure to meet people who put attention into their craft, and Jason and David of Lovibonds made us feel very welcome.
The people who turned up for the poetry loved the beer - Lovibonds certainly seemed to be making a lot of sales - and I think that the people who came for the beer loved the poetry. Everyone was very attentive.
Afterwards a young couple who hadn't known the poetry event was on made a point of coming up to me to thank me. The young woman said "I haven't heard poetry before but I really enjoyed it."
It is my belief that good poetry properly read is a kind of magic. I think it reaches the parts even beer cannot reach.
Lovibonds have posted some photographs of the event on their Facebook page, here. Some of the photos are of a different event the previous day. This is me in this photo. It's a bit weird because it looks as though I am scratching my left ear, until you notice that both my hands are holding the book.
