Good morning!
Welcome to the third and final day of #LookNorth25 - what we in these parts like to call LookNorth SuperSunday!
We're easing in with a few cheeky workshops & wrapping up with the big Look North Pub Quiz at Ben Madigan's! We'll see you there or somewhere in between.
Have a good 'un! x

I’m sorry that my well-worn copy of Richard Hayward’s In Praise of Ulster inherited from my grandmother is too heavy for me to bring over from Wales to Belfast with me, but I’m so looking forward to hearing more about him at this event.
