Tom
Seeking a gaming group
Hi, My name's Tom (he/him), married with kids (1primary, 1 secondary and 1 college). I've been playing 5E 2014 regularly for the past 4 years. I currently have a weekly game on a Sunday evening (running 3 years plus) and a bi-weekly game on a Saturday evening (session 100 around the corner), so commitment is not an issue. Ideally I'm looking for a regular midweek game either during the day (10am-2pm GMT) on a Tuesday or a Friday or on an evening Monday - Wednesday (9pm GMT onwards). I'm happy to play face to face but equally comfortable on Discord, Roll20, D&D Beyond, Foundry and I'm happy to look at and learn new editions/VTTs as required. I like a mix of exploration, RP and Combat and like to have some levity and humour in downtimes. If anyone is looking for a solid, reliable, mature, funny, LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent friendly player then shoot me a message. It would be great to hear from you.

Always wanted to get into D&D and I feel like now is the time! If there are any small groups in the Washington Tyne & Wear area, let me know. I'm a 40 year old wanting to learn to basics (quick learner!) and hopefully have regular meet ups in the area or online.

Louise
Seeking a book club
Iโm a 42 year old female who loves to read but nobody else in my life shares this hobby. I love many genres but thriller/dark romance are my favourites. The book that has stuck with me the most in 2024 is Saving Noah but Lucinda Berry and Credence by Penelope Douglas. I would love to have face to face book clubs ๐

judith dunville
Seeking a book club
retired, but love reading which I have done since i was a small girl, and still get a thrill being surrounded by books . I live with my husband who has never read a book in his life but accepts that its a big part of my life. We both live with our son, daughter in law and grandson, at the moment and will soon be building our own little annex in their garden.
