Liverpool Lions

Gaming group

We get together every Monday from 6.00pm to 11.30pm to play Euro multi-player games such as Puerto and Battlestar Galactica, which are brought by different members each week. Typically there are more than a dozen people participating, so there are lots of game options and enough time for a couple of large-scale games or a lot of short fillers. Besides becoming a member, there is no cost involved other than what you pay for drinks. We always welcome new members and those with more experience can help in explaining the rules.

The Midwives

Book club

Meets at woolton Run by jean mcevoy Library service We are a group of midwives in Liverpool, and we get together to discuss our chosen book about once a month. We get our books from Woolton Library which is part of Liverpool city council Library services. We have an eclectic taste and read anything form Dickens to Joanna Trollope. We are an opinionated lot which sometimes provokes heated debate. At the moment we are reading Master Georgie by Beryl Banebridge and we are due to meet very soon. We have a democratic way of choosing the books, we each propose a book and say why we would like to read it and then we vote, and this seems to work quite well. We meet at: woolton, Liverpool, Merseyside, L25 8ST Tags women only
