🍂Bradford, you were absolutely ripe🍎

Thank you to everyone who joined us and our musty robes to harvest the dark, at Eggs Collective’s Dark Nights Part Deux.

You guessed tins, you weighed apples, you penned odes to Autumn that have had Keats spinning in his grave. And all hail our autumn monarch, crowned in a storm of leaves and B&Ms finest pumpkin spice haze.

Unholy gratitude to our ritual accomplices & Johnny The Biblical Rapper for their offerings to the compost heap. Big thanks to team and volunteers for all their support.

Up next, the finale - winter solstice. The darkest night yet. 12th December, at Loading Bay. Until then, stay cursed children, and don’t eat the yellow conkers.

Devastated to hear that our friend Andy Martin of The Star and Garter has passed away. A champion amongst humans, Andy was kind, generous and hilarious. A rare and irreplaceable gem, loved deeply by many, including us. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and the S&G community. Manchester won’t be the same.
