This afternoon it was a such a pleasure to attend Gyles Brandreth and Leigh Lawson discussing Gyles' book 'The 7 Secrets of Happiness' and hearing Leigh perform his enthralling poems, the selection of which was tied in with Gyles' keys to happiness. The joy in the air was palpable! #happiness #poetry #BarnsBookFest
