Poetry Open Mic - 13th December 2006 at The QMU
Welcome, Join Us!
Lament!
It is the final QMU Travelling Circus de Poyets 2006 event! We have managed a total of 7 in as many weeks, the horse is well and truely whipped through the firm stiff eggwhite stage and into some collapsed sort of sour cream.

But do not fear!
We shall return in 2007, freash-baked, our first meet being on
the second Wednesday of term.
Reply to toad@toadinmud.co.uk requesting inclusion on the mailing list, if you have not already done so, and we shall remind you in good time of our return.
As a final gasp of extravaganza we have not one, but two special guests:
The lovely
Liz Lochead
our newest contributer, returns to read at the QM. A fantastic reader and Glasgow University’s very own resident writer she would be reason enough to attend.
However we also have
Alan Riach
a fine poet, and a major Edwin Morgan biographer.And of course we will be hearing new work from amoung the population of Glasgow University, including many seen before and hopefully, many who have never performed for us. We will be keeping the format that has run for the last few weeks, with a small interval and competition at the half-way point. The compere has promised us he will attempt to be more genial than previously.
If you wish to contribute this week, the system is as always. Contact toad@toadinmud.co.uk or Tom on 0792 635 0161 and request a spot. You may give as little or as much information concerning the number, length and flavour of performance. Of course you can still arrive on the night with something to give, and we will accommodate
you.
