Belfast Stitch 'n' Bitch ...
Ok so far I'm thinking Monday nights look the best for everyone involved. So I'm thinking we meet up every fortnight on a Monday night, maybe change the venue every time to give it a bit of interest. And I'm thinking of starting it this Monday the 25th of Septemeber at around 5.30/6.00 depending on where it is. Now here is where I haven't thought. ( Read more... ) -
