We'll be doing another Folks Kitchen on Tuesday at Rosehurst. This will accompany a Stories from Copenhagen, Two. This will be followed by a smaller group chats on projects that we can collaborate on, ideas for the future and will compliment Wednesdays Cafe Politique quite well...

Food served at 7. Meals will be £1-2. Stories from Christmas and Copenhagen from 7.30.

Oli myself and a few others were reflecting on the goods and the nots so goods from last thursday when we had the first folk kitchen and 'stories from copenhagen'.

The bugle has sounded. The city in daytime drowns in the drone of bankers and shoppers... as dusk descends the streets will come alive, laughing as the flags wave high.

For 90 minutes we'll tear through the city centre, flag on our minds.

The lines have been drawn. Recruit, cajole and press-gang everyone you can. Rules and a map of the playing field coming soon.

DON'T VOTE, PLAY!
