It’s kind of hard to think up any Valentines Day special offers for an Honesty Box Cafe… every cuppa is a special offer in a way!  (Suggestions on a postcard.)

But we do have loads happening in Dock Cafe over Valentines weekend, whatever your passion might be…

Love reading?  Dock Book Group meets on Saturday at 3pm to chat about A Possible Life by Sebastian Faulks.  The only thing I can remember about the only Sebastian Faulks book I’ve read (Birdsong) is the steamy bit near the start – Susan assures me that A Possible Life is much more respectable.

Love knitting?  Sip/Sit/Knit meets every Friday from 11:30 to err… sip, sit and knit.  Whether you’re a novice or a knitting natural, you’re very welcome.

Love games?  The Dock board game cupboard keeps expanding – to the extent that a typical Saturday in The Dock now involves half-a-dozen tables happily ensconced in a (friendly) battle to the death over the Scrabble tiles, Monopoly properties, Chess men (why are they all men?) and Cluedo clues.

One new addition – a build-your-own-Titanic model – caused great joy and concentration around one table-full of contented students today.  Their finished handiwork is now displayed in a very cunning location – see if you can find it…

If you need a last-minute Valentines gift, Dock Cafe can help there too… Noel’s hand-made jewellery stall is in the Dock pop-up market right through the weekend.

You can watch the piece being made right in front of you – or go for one he made earlier.

And for people who just love a good cuppa and a friendly natter?  Well that’s what we all love in Dock Cafe – and not just on Valentines Day…
