A great big gin-soaked thank you to Bridget, Jenna and Emily whose research, humour and total irreverence helped us blow the socks of those delicate romantics in a truly cotswoldian fashion. Cheltenham - you were great, have us back!
Thank you also to our excellent crowd and to whoever provided all that gin! It's certainly not quite a Coleridge-level come down but I'm for sure getting an early night tonight. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

Attention Feminism Poetry and Gin fans - our next event is going to be 🥁🥁🥁 at Cheltenham Literary Festival!!
We're part of the Lit Crawl on Saturday 7th October - and we're taking on those fucboi romantics!
