Tales at the Tap 21.10.22

Back by popular demand we will be telling some tales at the tap this Thursday evening. There are fine ales from around the world, and other drinks to try including those that are non alcoholic. The Riverside tap doesn’t serve food, but they are OK with you bringing some in with you.

So gather round, find a slice of pizza and 2/3rd of something dark, and listen to stories of Cú Chulainn, Jötunn who fling huge rocks like they are pebbles, or perhaps Assispattle facing the Giant Stoorworm.

Live music from Kate accompanies the stories, and if we are really fortunate she will sing too.

Can’t wait? Here are some stories from “The Floating Monastery”

Anyone want to try and had craft while they listen? Leave a comment.

Kate and Simon are back with some more music and stories this Thursday evening.

There are excellent ales on offer so you can sit back and enjoy.

The evening starts at 6pm when you can gather for a blether about tales and their telling. The first story will start at about 18.30.

This evening is free thanks to our hosts – The riverside tap – and performers from Wordsmith Crafts CIC (the Cluaran project).

Thursday the 17th of August

Turn up at 6 for some chat and we get going by 6.30.

You will be able to sit back in the comfy sofa and simply listen, or get involved in some chat about the tales.

Thanks to Kate we have music at the evening.

There are excellent ales from around the world on tap too.

The Stories we use are the ancient legends and myths that share names with hills and geography of the landscape we live in. Some of the stories are local, and some have travelled from the other side of the globe.

Do you have a favourite story? Get in touch.

(… and if you want to eat a wee snack you can bring it in. You can also enjoy a wide variety of alcohol free drinks that are available as well as beer)
