This forum covers a wide range of subjects - but our discussions are, apart from drink nights, virtual. Out there somewhere real groups of people discussing "things" - there must be a few book clubs discussing the latest Martin Amis, Robert Harris offerings. Tried that but couldn't match my taste in books to the group.


Are there any other discussion groups - politics (without being part of a political party), sport, military history, wargaming, trainspotting, cooking, flower arranging, beer, - I don't know and am not sure where I might find out.

Hi MM,

I know there was a book group being held at the library on LL on the last thursday of the month, you can generally get the book being read in the library. That said, I went there with a view to getting the book (this was back in the summer) and they didn't have any copies left so I didn't bother going to the meeting two weeks later. After that, summer sort of got in the way and I haven't thought about it until now! If you go, would you post a comment about it, please?


C :)


ps you might think 'why doesn't she just go herself?' I'm studying at the moment and reading for pleasure has to be postponed until the new year :)

    • The top front tooth has popped out.  Attempted to fix myself with repair kit bought from Boots, unfortunately it didn’t last long.  Tooth has popped out again.  Unable to get to dentist as housebound but family member can drop off.  I tried dental practice I found online, which is near Goose Green, but the number is disconnected.   The new dental practice in FH (where Barclays used to be) said it’s not something they do.  Seen a mobile dental practice where a technician comes to your home and does the repair but I’m worried about the cost. Any suggestions please? Thank you 
    • So its OK for Starmer to earn £74K/annum by renting out a property, cat calling the kettle black....... Their gravy train trundles on. When the Southport story that involves Starmer finally comes out, he's going to be gone, plus that and the local elections in May 2025 when Liebour will get a drumming. Even his own MP's have had enough of the mess they've made of things in the first three months of being in power. They had fourteen years to plan for this, what a mess they've created so quickly, couldn't plan there way out of a paper bag.   Suggest you do the sums, the minimum wage won't  be so minimum when it is introduced, that and the increase in employers national insurance contributions is why so many employers are talking about reducing their cohort of employees and closing shops and businesses.  Businesses don't run at a loss and when they do they close, its the only option for them, you can only absorb a loss for so long before brining the shutters down and closing the doors. Some people are so blinkered they think the sun shines out of the three stooges, you need to wake up soon. Because wait till there are food shortages, no bread or fresh vegetables, nor meat in the shops, bare shelves in the supermarkets because the farmers will make it happen, plus prices spiralling out of control as a result of a supply and demand market. Every ones going to get on the gravy train and put their prices up, It happened before during lockdown, nothing to stop it happening again. You don't shoot the hand that feeds you. Then you'll see people getting angry and an uprising start to happen.  Hungry people become angry people very quickly. 
    • Eh? Straight ahead of what?  If you turn left at Goose Green, as you also posted above, you end up at the library. Then the Grove. Then, unless you turn right at the South Circular, you end up at Forest Hill!
    • yes I’ve spotted this too — it’s near me and I’m very intrigued to see what it’ll be 👀👀👀👀
