Disappointment for the Albert Poets
We reported last month that the Albert poets were to return to the Albert pub in February. Unfortunately, after opening briefly in January, the pub closed and the Albert poets were forced to look for somewhere else. The event is still at 8pm on the 12th of February, but at the Dogma in Huddersfield. The Write Out Loud gig guide gives complete details.

FAQs
The Frequently Asked Questions (F.A.Q.) file is at the top of every website page.
