We're just back from a few days in East Coker. I've assembled my pictures and some notes on Storify, here.

And this short film from the Save East Coker campaign is worth a look:

This weekend [livejournal.com profile] communicator and I went to the Sixth Annual TS Eliot Festival at Little Gidding. Yes, a TS Eliot festival. You can see the programme here.

So a mixture of poetry readings, academic papers, music, and fannish squee, all a hundred yards from the church that inspired Little Gidding (which long-term followers of my life will know is my favourite poem). Ted Hughes reads: here and here.

More and pictures under the cut )

Thoroughly enjoyable couple of days. And the cakes were fabulous. Thank you for doing all the driving, [livejournal.com profile] communicator!

Gallery here, including a couple of pictures from my previous visit, in April 2005, to Little Gidding, with [livejournal.com profile] edge_of_ruin.
