• 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

    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.

This coming Sunday’s Pop-Ups will be the last before we close down for the Summer hols. We’ll be back on Sunday 23rd September with a very special publishing guest!

Meanwhile, I’d like to make this week’s show totally legendary, so I’m planning on a number of games (word!) for the chat (room!) to play… in additional to the usual clerihews, mordant wit, etc etc.

So in short – make sure you join us for this one, you’ll have a ball!
 
you’ll have a ball

That sounds like a promise for a prize already. Virtual tennis balls, maybe? Or are authors the golfer types? Who knows ...

Oh, I know: ball pens. '... join us for this one, you'll have a ball pen.'

Ok, I need to stay away from coffee. I'll also have to sit this one out, un4tnly. Got something on this Sunday, but I shall be there .. in virtual spirit.
 
Pop-Ups schedule has been amended for the next few weeks, pls see separate post.

Unfortunately I’m working, bearing in mind I get over a bout of food poisoning :(
 
I'll only be free for a few minutes of tonight's show (have to be somewhere else, weep). But **enjoy the party**!!
