Refreshments will be served. So get ye to Lucan Library at 6.30 pm, next Monday evening for that.

* no lucan writers have been consulted on this wild promise**, touching them in fact may lead to a "scene" and/or prosecution and/or death.


** wild promises on this blog in general should be ignored, ie not taken seriously, ie not really completely ignored - since that would defeat the purpose*** of me making them

*** that purpose being your joy and endless entertainment

Given the subject of some of the exhibits in our Red event I think we can presume that touching a member of Lucan Creative Writers' Group would almost certainly lead to death. But guests are welcome to try in any case.

Mr Oub is out of the country at the moment, so any touching done in my direction won't necessarily be rebuffed...*



*terms and conditions apply.

dublindave - or something almost as exciting!

and Oub - won't Mr Oub be back by then?

this exhibition is turning into a whole nuther thing...

Domestic Oub said...

Blast it! You're correct Niamh... hmmm.. but he'll be very jetlagged, so, y'know...
