Another very warm day but still overcast.
Morning spent at the Coley Park Community History event. I gave a brief talk on the importance of collecting archive material on a local and national as I did in the sixties while working for MERL.
Talks also by MERL and the Reading Food Growing Group. The Mayor gave an opening speech on the importance of keeping local history groups alive as in Coley and Whitley.
Was a good morning.
This afternoon it was back to more encapsulating.
