Why is it that all #books hops don't have a shelf of local books by local #writers (living & dead)? And in cities I mean hyper-local (for Edinburgh, Leith; for Dublin, say Dublin 1, or Dublin 8, NYC - Brooklyn etc.)

Why don't they build community this way?

#SixNations Italy critics please take note, they were 1 point from taking 4th, 3 points from 3rd, 4 from 2nd--can we nix forever the 'they don't belong here' rhetoric? Quite clear that they do. Thank you, all the teams, staffs, venues, and fans. No better tourney in the world! ❤️

Well that certainly took it to the 9th hour! Well done, France! And, well done, England. Allez les bleus! #FRAvENG #SixNations

🏆 2024 CHAMPIONS ☘️

Congratulations Irish Rugby 👏👏👏

#GuinnessM6N

Thrilled for Italy, gutted for Wales. Perhaps the WRU might sort out its issues with properly funding & supporting the sport, to avoid continuing the mass exodus of experienced players & improve the development of junior players at the international level? #WALvITA #SixNations

Grateful to be able to share that my poem 'Dream Visions' is longlisted for the long poem category.

Fingers crossed for everyone nominated!

Think Gatland has a good idea playing this young team in the first 40, even 50-60. But he should fill the bench with the most experienced players he's got access to, to keep Wales competitive in the second half. The lack of experience showed in those final 20 minutes. #WALvFRA

Let's go Wales! With not much to lose for either team at this point, hoping for a full-out, flowing game of rugby today. #SixNations 2024 #GuinnessSixNations #WALvFRA #SixNations

England earned that win, Ireland off this week. They'll want to shore things up going into next weekend if they want to finish heads held high. #ENGvIRE #SixNations #SixNations 2024 #GuinnessSixNations

For me, absolutely match of the tournament thus far. Hard fought, hard-won, what a moment for the Azzuri, what a heartbreaker for Scotland, fantastic contest. #SixNations #GuinnessSixNations2024 #SixNations 2024 #ITAvSCO

Italy YOU BEAUTIES! YOU BEAUTIES! FINALLY, scoreboard reflects play for you. Could not be more delighted! Well played, Scotland, and no shade--but HUZZAH FOR THE AZZURI! #ITAvSCO #SixNations #SixNations 2024 #GuinnessSixNations

With all respect and love to Scotland--oh come on, Italy, come on, Italy, come on, Italy! 31-22 at 73'. WE ALL WANT THIS FOR YOU, ITALY! #SixNations #GuinnessSixNations #ITAvSCO
