  • LUNCH - 1pm to 2pm People bring healthy finger-food to add to the table. Lunch starts each meeting.
    • It's valued time, with opportunities to get to know each other. It's casual, fun, help yourself, wash up your own dishes & share the tasks.
  • STORY-TELLING starts at 2pm, finishes about 4'ish (includes refreshments break)
    • When you arrive, let the MC know if you have a prepared story to tell - (no-one ever needs to tell a story unless they chose to and are prepared)
  • STORIES - If new to this delightful expressive art form, research "what is a story?", as lots of 'TALKS' are not stories.
    • Some listen for a while and then have a go. We are a very supportive group.
  • THEMES for stories are a catalyst ... open to imaginative interpretation or witty misinterpretation & intended for adults, not children.
  • VENUES – assorted public places and private homes.
