Hi Neighbours.
We are looking for a few people to form a book discussion group with the Book Discussion Scheme www.bds.org.nz....
We would each choose a number of books which would be couriered to Timaru. We would be reading 10 books per year and meeting up to discuss them.
We were part of a relaxed group in Christchurch before moving to Timaru. We usually met at a cafe or at each others homes with the occasional potluck.
Cheers
