S'NO POETRY: TONIGHT - check with venues before travelling!

Snow Chaos for Poetry Gigs

Snow seems to be affecting many poetry gigs across the most snowed-up regions of England and Wales, so do PLEASE check with each venue or organiser before heading out to poetry gigs, especially tonight but also across the weekend in case the snow continues.

Basically, the further north you are this weekend, the more likely it is that Sno will stop Po. So stay warm and keep informed.



Tonight's LOVE SLAM at the MAC Cancelled

In the Midlands, for instance, I've just heard from Sean Kelly that tonight's big LOVE SLAM at the Birmingham MAC has apparently been cancelled, but do please check that yourself at the MAC website or by phoning the venue itself if you were planning to go. Sean Kelly is offering some impromptu live poetry at the White Horse in Leamington Spa tonight instead, for anyone in the immediate vicinity.

During this snowy period, POETS ON FIRE is advising poets and poetry-lovers to please check all details of live poetry events before setting out, in case of cancellations. And only travel if you're fairly certain of a safe journey both THERE and BACK.

On a lighter note, I hope you like my daughter's snowman, above. Knew I'd find a use for that old toothbrush ...
