On a wee deal for a few days - just 99p. This quiet little story deals with where the climate crisis might take our communities, the power of loyalty and finds that our beating heart isn’t always in those most powerful

Our opening night in-conversation is with Georgian author Leo Vardiashvili talking about his fantastic debut Hard By A Great Forest, a book that blew us away. We’re so excited - this is the author’s first visit to Northern Ireland and only event.

@chadbourn.bsky.social from Peter Donaghy on Twitter (x.com/peterdonaghy...) latest NI predictions

Big split unionist vote - Naomi predicted to take Belfast East. As ever, Sammy isn’t my doing …

Yeah it was to do with Paisley’s wish for an independent NI vote iirc. So long ago it needs buried - l

Anyway current Ni predictions (a chart just for you) from @peterdonaghy on Twitter - I think this is pretty accurate
