Poetry and "poetry" related things, including places, pubbing, gigs and blog posts about poetry. If you have something to offer concerning poetry that is not mentioned here, please chip in. Particularly if you have anything to offer concerning local pubbing or other places, home brew, ale, or appley goodness. Cheers.

As it turns out there are no pubs / venues concerning poetry anyway. Is there something I have missed? Please let me know!
