• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

We’re planning a Halloween event on YouTube on Monday 30th October… and we want your stories!

We’re looking to create an atmosphere of telling chilling stories around a campfire. So these will be true(ish!) stories… things that have happened to you, or to your friends, or to folk in your locality.

Fairies playing rugby by moonlight.

Or that day you decided against buying a house because of the vibes you got when you walked in (and how right you were…).

Everyone’s got stories like this.

We want yours.

Record them here:


Right now, please.

Three minutes maximum. Don’t worry about being word-perfect… this is more of a conversation than a performance. Look into the attic of your memory.
And show us what’s there... :)
