Jay (Sunderland)
Seeking a book club
My name is Jonathan. I have not been reading as I used to or as I would love to, my aim is to rekindle that passion, have people recommend books they feel are great books and read them and finally make new friends that share my passion

Seeking a gaming group
Hi! Me (25 female) and my partner (25 male) have been playing D&D for roughly 3 years now, we had a few groups we saw fairly often in Sheffield but have now moved back up to Newcastle, we’re looking for a friendly group to play with, preferably D&D, I’m sure one of us would be happy to DM, but we’re also eager to be players. We can do most days except Thursday and would probably prefer to be in person.

IKC (Whitley Bay)
Seeking a book club
Am 76 and just moved back to Tynemouth. An avid reader, mostly serious fiction (Pullitzer, Booker etc), but biographies and poetry too. Have enjoyed book clubs in the past. Last book club format was 1 book per week with no serious lit crit, seriously flawed for those very reasons imo.

Seeking a gaming group
Hi I've played TTRPGS since Uni, mostly playing DND5e but have experience in other systems like WHFRP, Alien, Star Trek (Mophideus), Challenger and many others. When I was younger I liked to hack and create my own systems and have even play tested and supported in the development of a friends game which was successfully kickstarted. I Have DM'ed but I prefer being a player, and I'm just looking for a group to have semi regular sessions and maybe make some new friends Will try any system and pick up rules quickly :)

Seeking a gaming group
I like RPGs such as Mutants and Masterminds the best, but I'm also amenable to playing D&D (don't care which version). Also, I enjoy geeky tabletop games such as Hnefatafl, Carcassonne, Mille Bornes, Pandemic, Ticket To Ride, and Genotype.

Seeking a gaming group
53 year old who loves roleplaying games. Mainly Warhammer FRP first edition but have recently purchased 4th edition. Looking for 3-4-5 others who want to invest in 1-2 sessions per week. You will be invited to play once an initial pub test has been passed, where we meet up, have a couple of beers, discuss what we want and see it's all compatible then we get down to some intense gaming! Once I sort the spare room (carpet.. lick of paint), we can all jam at my place! I live in Wallsend! Thanks!!
