• 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…

There are various ways of declaring one's writing allegiances, including messages on T-shirts, but what about having an illustrious playwright on your underwear?

The Bard appears, along with Henry VIII, Ann Boleyn, Queen Anne and Elizabeth I on underwear sold by Not On The High Street:

I had the puerile thought, that a man could make Henry's nose twitch, if he thought hard about it....:rolleyes:

It led me to wonder which writers would be ideal candidates for appearing on undergarments. Being confronted with some authors' faces could be off-putting. How about Charles Bukowksi howling at you?!

Perhaps, I'd be better off sticking to (no pun intended :oops:) someone spiritually astute, like the Dalai Lama?

Who would you have on your knickers or underpants?
