Charity “Books4Books” Book Fair @Tadg’s + Upcoming Craft Beer Events

Kevin Ramsden has organized a special event coming up on Sunday November 27th at Tadg’s Irish Bar & Restaurant. Kevin says,

There will be a “Books4Books” Book Fair during the afternoon on the 27th which will give you the opportunity to buy some great second-hand books (though many are recent titles and in good condition) at super low prices and directly support education and reading for children in third world countries at the same time. Please check the details below, and pass on this information to as many people as you can:Date: Sunday November 27thPlace: Tadg’s Irish Bar & Restaurant (see www.kyotoirish.com for directions)Time: 12.30 – 6.00

What to do: To make this book fair work we need two main things.

Basically, you bring, you buy, you doubly donate!!

1) We need you to come along and bring some of your books with you (in good condition) so that we can add them to the pile and get a good selection going

2) We then need you to buy some of the other books that will be on offer to keep the donation cycle working.

All books will be priced at 200 yen each, but more generous contributions are definitely encouraged.

All the proceeds from the sale of these books will go to buy books and educational materials for very needy children in schools in Cambodia and in the refugee camps on the Thai/Burma border.

This is Books4Books!!

To make the day even more appealing, Tadg has put together a special reasonably priced ‘All Day’ Sunday lunch menu which will be available from 1.00 pm onwards. Menu below:

Cream of Winter vegetable soup with organic whole wheat bread rolls.

Seasonal salad

Sunday roast Beef and pork, shallot and herb gravy, vegetables and roast potatoes.

1,200 yen

Kiddies menu:

Real chicken nuggets

or fish and chips

Jelly and custard

800 yen

There will also be a ‘kids corner’ set up where the wee ones can watch movies on the big screen and hang out, leaving parents to mellow out and enjoy a browse and a brew.

All in all, we hope this will be a really laid back affair for all the family to enjoy, and an opportunity to buy in some books to curl up with on those long winter nights ahead. Also, and most importantly, you can be happy knowing that your contributions will be helping a host of little readers somewhere else in the world.

Hope to see you all there on the 27th!
