He he he. I’m going to make a cup of tea then come back and hit play. Thanks you.

Well happily for me, I bought the Simmonds last week and already have a collected Rumens, so not such an expensive post *grin*. Seriously, they were all great, and I was glad to hear the Seatter.

Hope its OK that I import Carol Rumens and Paul Hentry reading their stuff onto my blog? Makes for such a shift actually hearing and seeing the poets saying their words.

Hi Sarah, I think the more people that hear these readings (and buy the collections, of course), the better.
