Poetry and Folk - A folk biased session featuring a guest folk group from Coventry called Toadstool - whose members include John Brown who is no stranger tot he club. There will be other singers, musicians and poets present at what should be a very enjoyable evening of poetry and folk. Look out next month for an event featuring a well-known poet. (Could it be Roger McGough?)."
