LordKalvanOfOtherwhen

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.

KT

Seeking a book club

I'm a teacher who took early retirement to look after family and live life more fully. I love all things 'bookish' ... the feel & smell of a book will always be a joy to me. I will read absolutely anything but I am drawn to books which leave their mark long after I've read the last page. Looking to join ( or even start up) a book club in Sunderland.
