Liars' League Events are Fun

This is the venue - downstairs at The Phoenix, Cavendish Square and here the audience members are beginning to to filter in and take their seats There was a delicious aroma of food as people arrived and ordered their supper - maybe they had come straight from work. I had. But I ordered a pint of Peroni.

The audience was remarkably literary and well-read. I didn't get a look-in at the book quiz, while I ransacked my brain for the answer, hands were shooting up and I didn't even know the answer to most of the questions. Must do Better.

The Liars' League website promised
                                                                            '..... swingers and assassins, curry in New York and sexy pants in suburbia, not to mention a burning building or two ... plus our infamous literary quiz, the chance to win some steamy FREE books, and bargain wine all night - all for a measly fiver...'


and that was all true. It was great. Last night the theme was 'Hot and Bothered' and the steamy stories sweltered to their sticky ends in a most satisfactory manner provoking laughter and appreciation, concentration and applause. The actors were superb, the stories came to life and if that isn't fun what is?
