Gabriel (Barnard Castle)

Never played any tabletop before so no preference for any system. Just want to start some kind of social hobby, moved up from London to the countryside now and don't get to see friends much. Just started driving so I'd like to make the most of that now. 26 y/o.

Bowes Book Club (Barnard Castle)

Book club

Readers and culture lovers are invited to a series of cosy Sunday afternoons at the Bowes Book Club, held in The Bowes Museum’s aptly named Conversation Space. The series continues this Autumn and Winter with a unique curator-led programme offering much more than a traditional book group. Each session includes an introduction to the chosen book, context-setting from an expert curator, dedicated time to discuss the book and its themes with refreshments in an atmospheric setting. Readers will also have access to the museum’s galleries with the opportunity to get close to objects from its world class collection, as curators draw connections between the worlds of art, design and fashion from across time and the selected book.

James (Darlington)

Seeking a gaming group

Hi, I’m looking to start playing DnD. I’ve only ever played a single one-shot so am a total novice. My kids (13 & 16) are also interested in playing. Neither has any experience either. Ideally we’d like to learn together somewhere local.

John (Bishop Auckland)

Seeking a gaming group

Hi, I'm John, and I've been playing tabletop RPGs for 10+ years, with around 8 of those spent behind the DM screen. While I love running games, I'm currently looking to join a group as a player in the Bishop Auckland, Barnard Castle, or wider County Durham area. I've played D&D 3.5, 5e, and the 2024 rules update, along with a variety of other systems including Paranoia, Vampire: The Masquerade, and Star Wars d20 (3.5). I've recently picked up Daggerheart and Candela Obscura and would love the chance to give both a try. I'm a big Critical Role fan and have been lucky enough to attend several live shows in both the UK and the US. For me, tabletop gaming is all about great stories, memorable characters, and having a laugh with good people. Over the years I've met some fantastic players and made lifelong friends through the hobby. I have a regular online game on Mondays, but I'm looking for an in-person group and am available most other days. I'm easy-going, get on with pretty much everyone, and I'm looking for a friendly group that enjoys good roleplay, teamwork, and plenty of laughs along the way. If that sounds like your table, I'd love to hear from you!
