Here is an eclectic collection of poems by five women. Together, they have explored forms and themes and triggered ideas for each other. You will find poems following the unusual Golden Shovel form through to three on tomatoes ... and much else beside. The title, a nod to the home address where the group meets, also suggests the sense of a safe place in which they practice their art. The content is a reflection of a workshop in action, experimental and friendly. What shines out from this anthology is the huge enthusiasm for words - honouring, shaping and simply playing with words. The delight in experimenting with poetic forms indeed reflects the writers' fascination with life and what asks to be expressed, each writer reflecting her individuality in the process. The book offers encouragement to anyone interested in words and the possibilities of poetry to 'Have a go!' - Nicola Bowery
