So last Saturday, we had our last 'regular' bookclub. The thing that will change from now on is that I will be in Switzerland, while they are still in The Netherlands. As the BILBO bookclub is kind of my baby (I founded it), I do think it's a bit sad that I can't go to every meeting any more. Physically at least. We plan to have me on skype in the future and whenever I visit The Netherlands, there will be a spontaneous book club as well.
Now, to finish this era of the book club (we exist about 2.5 years, we read classic British literature. Anyone interested?) we decided to do a High Tea at Pilkington's in Den Bosch (it's a tradition to go there. They have divine apple crumble!).
In a secret garden in the restaurant with our first course of the high tea: the sweet stuff!
We had to read The Secret Garden (lovely!) and Tom Jones (only one of us finished it in time.. *oops*), but after the high tea we watched the movie of The Monk (which we read in December 2014). To us, at least, it all made perfect sense. It was a lovely book club and I will see them soon on skype when we have read Peter Pan (*yay*) and Oliver Twist (*sigh*.. I am dreading this book).
