    H all. I managed to get in touch with someone. It looks like, for the moment, this group is no longer meeting up.

    Hi there. My friend and I are interested in coming along, I just have a few questions, what time do you meet at? If we come along to the June one will we have to have read May's book?

    Thank you

    What's the book for March?

    Just found you guys and would LOVE to join! If ok?? How many are you on each meeting, roughly? And is Beanscene that coffee shop in the corner near river Kelvin, the one with all pillows in the window? (Am trying to remember Woodlands Rd from memory, having moved across town myself...)

    Hope to see you soon!

    hey Gillian! (And other book groupers!!)

    Happy New Year! Sorry I missed the last meeting - I had an interview that week and had far too much studying to do for it to squeeze in reading the book!

    Do you have any plans yet for the next book on the list? And will the next meeting be the 5th of Feb?

    Hope you all had a good Christmas

    Hi Steve,

    Can't reply to your profile as it is private. Feel free to come along. The meeting is always on the first Thursday of every month in Beanscene on Woodlands Road at 5.30pm. A copy of the book will be on the table so you can spot us. (The Jan meeting might not go ahead but it should be back to normal by Feb)

    I've been looking to join a book group and this seems like a good bet. Especially as I see you've just read Invisible Monsters. I'm disappointed to see I've just missed the last meeting but please let me know when the next one is!

    Hello! Ok....my friend and I are officially muppets! We came along to the Feb meeting but were sitting in the other room in Beanscene the whole time....at half 7 we gave up as didn't see anyone resembling a book group...then when we were outside I looked in and there you all were! It was getting late and we were both starved so thought it best to wait til another meeting and not interupt! Duh! Anyway, hope to see yous in April as next week off to Oslo so cant make the meeting.

    Claire :)
