Betty's making mince pies (and plenty of them!) for our meeting at Cross Street Chapel, Manchester on Tuesday (5 Dec, from 1pm). Come along for a festive welcome, as Carolyn Lambert tells us about Gaskell and the Fairy Tale. What could be nicer? https://gaskellsociety.co.uk/.../manchester-meeting.../
