Paul G (Chippenham)

Hi, I’m Paul. I’m 58 and taking a career break. Looking for activities for which I didn’t have time or energy when I was working. I did attend a couple of book clubs over a decade ago but after a busy day’s work, found I’d be nodding off! I want it to be social but for it to be mainly to talk about the book.
