Two very different talks in November. First in a residential home in Billericay, followed by a talk in Witham to a women’s networking group. As different as these groups were, the audiences were both very engaged and appreciative. I have been invited back to the residential home in January. I will have the opportunity to give the first airing of my new talk about Antoine de St Exupéry. I have been fascinated by St Ex since I studied some of his books for a late “A” Level in 1987. Since then I have read biographies, more of his books, the memoir written by his wife Consuelo, and, correspondence between them. A fascinating life story that I hope will entertain my audiences.
