It is with great regret that I missed the last one of these (and forgot to post it here), but No Point in Not Being Friends… the Manchester reading night organised by Chris Killen and Sally Cook is this Tuesday, 23rd September. Chris and Sally have worked hard to create a great night, which is now so popular the venue has moved it to a bigger room. It begins at 8pm at The Deaf Institute on Grosvenor Street (off Oxford Road). It’s shaping up to be an excellent night with readings from Joe Stretch (interviewed in the forthcoming issue of Transmission), John McAuliffe, David Gaffney and many more (including an open mic slot or two). See you there!
