Your Mum is absolutely amazing (...Oh, it was great! Your Mum is absolutely amazing (I haven’t actually met you Dad but I’m sure he is amazing too). I wanted to visit Honey Pot since I started to follow your blog and I’ve learnt about it. Unfortunately I never had time off on Saturday or it was something else to do and the distance between Suffolk and Somerset didn’t help. So when I finally quit my job, Honey Pot was the first place on my list to visit. And what an extraordinary place it is! It’s soooo much more than just books (which are lovely as well). It’s hard to explain but I don’t remember having such a great time with people I’ve just met. I love the idea of meeting for a coffee and chatting. Within a second your Mum and all the other people (sorry, I don’t remember their names) made me feel so welcome. It was lovely, absolutely lovely to be there and I know that I will come back one day.
