A massive 'Thank You' to @Eloisejwilliams
for joining us today, if you missed her we have a few signed copies left of her new book 'The Library of Lost Stories' #haverfordwest #pembrokeshire #signedcopies #bookshopsigned
@FireflyPress

Coverage of the 60th anniversary of the Aberfan disaster has made me think of this beautiful story that sensitively deals with some of the aftermath in Wales. If you haven’t read it, it is a must.
