Season 12 of PlayOn English Pool Leagues at Hurricane Room in Kings Cross will be starting on Wednesday 27th May! Season 12 had 18 players across 3 Divisions (ranging from beginners / casual to top club players). This is an English Pool league (Blackball Rules)... and all abilities are welcome, as long as you know the basic rules. If you are interested in joining, just contact me so I can find out a little more about your playing standard, and we'll take it from there! Its pretty straight forward and chilled :) Matches are races to 9 racks. Points are awarded for Wins, Break & Dish, and Convincing Wins. There will be promotions and relegations for the top and bottom players in each Division, plus trophies for the Division winners. NOTE: By signing up to Season 12, you will need to commit to play once per week for the duration of the league (roughly 6 weeks). Of course if you can't make a week due to unforseen circumstances / holidays etc, then you must be willing to catch up your matches as soon as possible, or you may forfeit the points to your opponent. You can play your match on any day of the week that suits both you and your opponent (**there is no physical meet up on Wednesday 27th May**). The cost to enter is £25 (my fee for organising the leagues). This needs to be paid before you play your first match. Table fees need to be split between both players: **Discounted League Rate - £10 per hour** Sunday to Wednesday ALL DAY... Thursday to Saturday before 6pm (Otherwise... Students & Seniors - £12 per hour... Adults - £14 per hour) You must also be a member of Hurricane Room clubs to participate: (Students & Seniors - £17.50 per year... Adults - £35 per year) Please read the group description for more info, and message me if you have any questions! Thanks Pete 07968759281

Join us in discussing Gloria Don't Speak by Lucy Apps - Longlisted for the 2026 Women's Prize for Fiction. Gloria has a learning disability. She's nineteen, and there's nothing to do except wander the local parks, look for friendship and keep out of trouble - or go round Jack's. Jack needs Gloria's company, but he's unpredictable and angry at the world. After an act of violence, their friendship has to end. Now Gloria's on her own. But when she hears Jack's out of prison, her whole world is turned upside-down. Heart-breaking and beautiful, Gloria Don't Speak is an insightful portrait of a woman dealing with vulnerability, violence - and the desire for connection. Everyone is welcome, regardless of what they thought about the book; we love hearing all kinds of opinions! You can join even if it's fully booked. Hope to see you soon!

A Rabble session is 1 hour of fun and social team games. Each game disguises high-intensity intervals within the rules, giving you an effective, all-body workout without even realising it. We play a bunch of different games at each session (like British Bulldog, Capture the Flag, Dodgeball, Frisbee and many more), and every class is different. Sessions are open to all, no matter your sporting ability. Each game is explained before we start, so there's no need to have played any of the games before. Come solo or bring friends! And stay at the end for the social part! Who knew getting fit could be this fun? **TO BOOK**: It's essential that you book onto sessions via our website, using the link below; due to restrictions on games and preparation times we cannot accept walk-ins, or late arrivals.

Welcome, readers! Our May read is **_Kindred_ by Octavia E. Butler.** The story follows Dana, a Black woman living in 1976 California, who is suddenly pulled back to a Maryland plantation before the Civil War. She learns her survival is tied to a white slaveholder’s son. Forced to move between centuries, she must endure the brutal realities of slavery while fighting to hold on to her identity. Tense, intimate, and unforgettable, Kindred explores how the past refuses to stay buried. Looking forward to discussing with everyone! We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Happy reading! 📖
