  Send us a textThank you so much for joining me dear friends and new companions.  Welcome to this odd, wholly unprofessional and low-key podcast where we take each day as it comes.  Enjoying literature, art, history, architecture and the natural world about us.  It would be lovely if you would forward this episode to someone who you think might like some warm and gentle company.  I would be so grateful.  Also if you have the time to give this a nice rating, that too would be appreciated hugely.  Thank you. ☺️ Love Gretel Support the showGretel le Maître likes to look for the beauty and curiosities in life, one day at a time.
