Events

We run around twenty events a year in the back room, which seats twenty-eight people and has decent acoustics. Events are free or £5 with a drink, depending on the evening. We keep them small because small is better — you can actually ask a question, and the author can actually answer it. The atmosphere is candid and warm, and we usually run over time.
