William Ewart Gladstone: Faith and Politics in Victorian Britain | David William Bebbington

Last plug for the #litsyreadingretreat2020 - I don‘t want anyone to miss out if they didn‘t see an earlier post.....
I‘m organising 3 days staying in the historic Gladstone Library (yes!!!! A residential library 🥰)this spring. So far we have 13 Littens coming from across the globe. Space for more if you fancy it!

Bookish_B This sounds amazing! If I‘d seen this sooner and didn‘t already have too many trips planned for the year I would totally do it! Have fun ❤️ 5y

Mitch @Bookish_B we did it last year too and loved it. I‘m sure we‘ll do it again in 2021 - save the date! 5y

BennettBookworm I WISH I COULD!!! Wow, so beautiful! 5y

Mitch @Ruthiella next year maybe?🤞🏼 5y

HardcoverHearts I would absolutely love to do this if you do it another year. 5y

Mitch @HardcoverHearts I‘m sure we will - we had a great time in 2019. I think it‘ll be an annual event! 5y

rockpools I can‘t wait! 5y

Eyelit I‘m in for 2021 if you do it again! 🙂 5y

LeeRHarry Not this year but maybe next year? I‘ll see if it fits into my annual trip back to the UK 😊 sounds fun! 5y

kamoorephoto This sounds amazing. I so wish this was near me. 5y

Hooked_on_books Sounds incredible. @Soubhiville are you going?!? 5y

TiredLibrarian What a delightful idea! 5y

scripturient I can‘t wait to be back. 😍 5y

julesG Have been looking forward to this for months. 5y

julesG @squirrelbrain please join us. 5y

julesG @Leniverse We spoke on WhatsApp, are you able to make it? 5y

squirrelbrain I‘m looking into it, even if just for the day on Saturday! 😁 @julesG 5y

Leniverse @julesG Yes! Looking forward to be roomies again. Arrive on the Friday, leave Monday this time, right? 5y

julesG @Leniverse That's what the German delegation does, maybe @Mitch and @RachelO too? It'd be great if you stayed until Monday. 5y

Leniverse @julesG Can do! Friday to Sunday just wasn't long enough last year. 5y

julesG @Leniverse 🥳🥳🥳 5y

veritysalter I so wish I could, but I‘ll just be post-op then. Please let me know if you plan to do this again at another time. I hope you all have the most wonderful experience 📚♥️📚 5y

Mitch @veritysalter Probably same time next year - pencil it in! 😂 5y

Oryx @trishb hope you can come for a day 😀 5y

TrishB @Oryx it‘s looking unlikely at the moment 😕 hubby has stock take in work and son in Barcelona, so trying to find someone who can spare a couple of hours with the Doggo 🐶 5y

Oryx @TrishB fingers crossed. If only Sansa and Daisy could come too ♥️ (probably chaos would ensue...) 5y

TrishB @Oryx we definitely wouldn‘t get much peace and quiet! 5y

Mitch Cool. Got your email. I‘m compiling lists! 👏🏻 5y

Soubhiville @mitch and I got your letter! I‘ll reply soon 💜 5y

Eyelit Ooh, so exciting!! 5y

Eyelit Have you checked out Quiet London yet? I used that as a sort of resource for ideas when I planned a trip to London years ago (gotta love the library for having so many lovely idea travel books)

Quiet London

Soubhiville @Eyelit I haven‘t seen Quiet London yet. I found all of these at the branch on Steck. I‘ll request that one after I get through these, thanks for the recommendation! 5y

It feels like a dream! I‘m going all the way to Wales to spend a weekend reading with friends in a library B&B?!? My husband is the absolute best for encouraging me to step outside my comfort zone and travel abroad alone for the best vacation I can imagine.

Thank you @Mitch for setting this up and being such an inspiration! (Check our her original post for more info or if you‘re interested in joining!)

#LitsyReadingRetreat2020

Birdsong28 What are the dates? 📚📖 6y

Mitch @Birdsong28 in the picture - sorry was trying to get all the information in 451 characters! 6y

Mitch A few people were disappointed not to have seen the post about this last year - if you can please copy and spread the word xxx 6y

Birdsong28 @mitch Sorry completely missed that lol!!! I will do! 6y

Oryx @trishb 6y

TrishB Thanks Emma @Oryx will be doing my best! 6y

cleoh This sounds excellent! Wish I lived closer to the UK 😭 6y

Soubhiville This feels so surreal! I can‘t believe I‘m going! 💕📚💕 6y

erzascarletbookgasm So envy you all, UK peeps! 💗 6y

wanderinglynn This is on my calendar. Plus, if I‘m coming all that way, I think I‘ll make a whole well-long trip & do some U.K. exploring! 6y

CouronneDhiver Exciting! I‘d love to, but not sure I‘ll have enough spare $$$ to make it work 🤔 Maybe... 6y

jenniferw88 I'm coming! Woohoo! Just emailed! 6y

scripturient @Sarah83 @Heideschrampf Now is your chance! Hurry up, spots are limited! :) 6y

Mitch @erzascarletbookgasm it‘s an truly international affair - so far we‘ve got U.K., Germany and USA represented! 🤣 6y

Mitch @wanderinglynn yes! Come 🥳 6y

Mitch @jenniferw88 haven‘t got anything ....? 6y

jenniferw88 @Mitch it was struggling to send, but it just has! 6y

Samplergal Oh I would love to do this. 6y

Mitch @Samplergal 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 6y

Samplergal @Mitch another UK flight and while I‘m there I might as well do some touring,,,, let me try to figure if my finances can do this. 6y

LeahBergen Ohhhhh!! 💕💕💕💕 6y

Emilymdxn I‘ve just booked! I wrote a whole comment somewhere else about budgeting for it and booking later in the year... then I just booked it! Excited to join you guys 6y

Mitch @Emilymdxn yeah! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 6y

Kalalalatja I would love to, but with still being unemployed and saving for a trip to Vietnam later this year, I just can‘t afford it right now. Is there an “order before date” or is it possible to book later on? 6y

Mitch @Kalalalatja Oh, Vietnam - how exciting. You can join us any time, the library is small though with not many bedrooms. If you book now you only have to pay one nights accommodation, the balance you pay on check out. (edited) 6y

StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego This is tempting. I may have to wait for the 3rd Annual though. 6y

Kalalalatja Good to know! I hope I can scrape some money together, so I can join you! 🤞 6y

Mitch @Kalalalatja 🤞🏼😁🤞🏼😁 6y

Mitch @StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego 2021 it is! 👏🏼 6y

LeeRHarry I had no idea this was in North Wales! My brother lives there - unfortunately I won‘t be visiting next March 😔 but one year I might be over from Australia at the right time of year 😊🤞🏻 6y

Mitch @LeeRHarry 🤞🏼👏🏼🤞🏼 6y

Itchyfeetreader I‘m in - I‘ll send you a mail now 📚🛌 (excited) (edited) 6y

Mitch @Itchyfeetreader yeah... excited 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 6y

laurieluna Can't afford to book right now as we're still forking out for our wedding! Hopefully there'll be rooms left after June. 🤞 6y

rockpools @Itchyfeetreader 🎉🎉🎉 6y

Oryx @libby1 6y

Libby1 Thanks, @Oryx 💕 6y

Libby1 @Oryx and @Mitch - I‘ve sent an email asking for details. I hope I can join you next year! 6y

Mitch @Libby1 yeah! Xxxx 6y

Susanita Count me in! I just reserved a room! 6y
