Avery, Vegan Reading, Eye Pokes and Pizza

Filmmaker Roger Avery liked my tweet about his 2002 film The Rules of Attraction.

Went to a vegan alcohol-free bar to read a book. Hinterland in Manchester’s Northern Quarter hosted the Sober Silent Reading Club, a chance to sit in silence and read yet still be part of a community. Their principle for the event was to build a community without alcohol and companionship without communication. A relaxing evening. May be monthly. Check back. 

 

 

Ran a meetup with Manchester Nightlife to watch UFC 321 in Joshua Brooks. Good group of lads showed up. Tables were booked, but one of them was empty as the group hadn’t showed, so we had it. Small screen at the end of the table, nice tidy venue upstairs. Shame the main fight ended in a no contest due to accidental eye poke. House music DJ downstairs. Seemingly no charge to get in. good music. Went to Yes bar after this, which has 3 floors of music. Mostly house I think. Here’s the flyer:
