Shameless Plug: Dublin Twook Club

Gav — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 18:59:37 +0000

A quick plug for EDiED’s new social venture!

Dublin Twook Club is, well, on the face of it, mostly self-explanatory. It’s based in Dublin – well, actually, specifically in @119leesonstreet – and it’s a book club, organised over Twitter! Thus, Twook Club! (I had suggested ‘Page 119′ but someone had taken the Twitter username.)

It’s a fun, social, and informal monthly get-together to gather round with a drink or two and chat about, well, books, plus inevitably whatever else is tickling your fancy now. Monthly meet-ups will be in our gaff, the aforementioned 119, and co-ordinated through the @DublinTwookClub Twitter account and through the blog Ciara’s set up for the purpose, at http://dublintwookclub.wordpress.com/ (where hopefully I’ll have some sort of sign-up mechanism later on).

Importantly, though, we’re not restricting this to Twitter users, so we’d appreciate if you’d spread the word – just click http://short.ie/TwookClubRT to retweet the message. There’s honestly no limit to the membership so tell anyone who might be interested.

So… go get started. Tweet your suggestions on what the first book we cover should be to the @DublinTwookClub Twitter account, and keep an eye on the DublinTwookClub blog – and of course the Twitter – for more details.

…comes a favourite in honour of our recently-departed Scally, who’s off peddling his riddled body for skag in foreign climes for the summer.

We particularly like how he shouts “Warrrrrrrrrrrruld rekkkaaaaaaaddddu!”.

For the weekend that’s in it…

I am getting stupidly excited. RTE are set up and the pitch looks great… It just ain’t a summer until Meath play the Dubs.

Incidentally, tickets are still on sale, and are honestly brilliant value for the two matches’ interest you’ll get out of it. Heartily recommended.
