The Cellar- Septembers Delectable Menu!

Hello All,

Hope you’ve all had a great summer, but now the evenings are growing shorter it’s time to get that poetical glow back in yer life. I’ve made an application for funding and should be finding out in a few weeks how it’s all gone. If I get a yes then things will start happening from about mid November. Until then, my lips are sealed, but here are some great poets to get the Autumn season off with a bang!

Hope to see you all soon,

Niall
