This is a North London-based group organising social activities. We are based around the Muswell Hill / Crouch End area but all are welcome. The aim is generally to be local so it's easy to travel to places. There might be ocasional outings further afield into town or country.  Events are generally small scale. We are entirely non commercial, no attendance fees are requested and no profits are made. Sometimes tickets to events are sold by the Organiser or it is necessary for you to buy your own ticket. We usually operate in the evenings and weekends. Events could be films, live music, theatre, nightlife, dancing, exhibitions, guided walks, pubs, or meals out.  Really anything that we the organisers and you guys want to do!

In addition to that please bother to read and then follow any specific instructions set out in individual events and respond to contacts and requests from the Event Host. **Profiles**: Please please post a **REAL** picture of yourself.  This helps with trust and recognition. New join requests will not be accepted from anonymous people without real photos particularly with no other personal supporting information. We understand that ocasionally there are circumstances where you prefer not to have a real photo, please contact the Organiser if this is the case. **Removing members**: From time to time members who have not visited the Group in a long time will be removed. This is to keep the membership fresh, relevant and active. Of course any members removed for this reason are welcome to rejoin. Members may also be removed (or not admitted in the first place) at the Organiser's absolute discretion for not having a real picture, having an inappropriate picture or behaving inappropriately. **Advertising:** We are not a platform for members to advertise other groups, activities or services, whether professional or private, their own or for others.  Any members found to be engaging in this will be removed and may be blocked from re-joining. **Messaging other members:** Our Meetup group is NOT an online dating site.

Friendly social Badminton Club for experienced sports lovers and intermediate level (or above) doubles badminton players.

If you enjoy stationery, journalling or any manner of analogue hobbies, then this group could be for you! Since March 2024, I have been organising a regular stationery meet-up with like-minded fellow enthusiasts. I have been particularly inspired by the proliferation of stationery / journal clubs that occur in Asia and the USA, and believe that there is no reason why we could not attempt to re-create our own as well. I am hopeful that a few of us can get together on a regular basis to explore the rabbit hole of analogue tools, and indulge in our simple doodling and dabbling as hobbyists. Another bonus from these meet-ups would also be to make new memories and share screen-free moments away from our busy and full-on daily lives. These meet-ups would also be an incredibly fun way to unwind, share our ideas and and even our stash (we stickers-and-washi-tape hoarders would know all about that). WHERE AND WHEN TO MEET? If this sounds like something you would be keen to get involved in, please join any of the meetups! I am in the St Albans (Hertfordshire) area, and we have been using the local St Albans Museum and Gallery courtroom café because it is spacious and flexible enough: we usually get together for 2 hours every second Saturday morning and fourth Sunday morning of each month. This is a low-commitment and relaxed group, as I want people to be able to drop in and out whenever their schedule permits. You are absolutely not required to attend every single session (but of course, I would love it if you can!). You may notice that we are tracking the number of sessions but this is because I am merely curious to see how long we have been running for, so please don't be put off or think that you might have missed out on anything when you come to the next session. We have a different mix of regulars and non-regulars each time and it keeps things fresh and dynamic. Basically: each session is different and non-didactic, we have absolutely no structure, we are not professionals in any way shape or form, and essentially there is never any plan! It's never too late to join in so please do come along to the next meet-up! Thank you for reading, Jasmin :)

A monthly social night for board games at Britain’s most extraordinary home. Book a table. Bring a game. Order food & snacks. And experience a gaming venue unlike any other. This is a monthly board gaming group in a unique location. On or around the last Monday of the month. For all levels of talent and experience. Either to bring and host a game, or join a game looking for players. We are a group of gaming enthusiasts who enjoy exploring new and favourite board games. Join us for our monthly meetup where we gather to socialise, strategise, and have fun. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or new to the hobby, everyone is welcome to come play, meet new friends, and escape into exciting adventures. YOUR HOST John Tarrow is an author, award-winning games master and creator of Britain’s most extraordinary home; Talliston House & Gardens. THE VENUE The meetings are held in a unique and amazing house and gardens. Talliston was a 25-year project that took the UK’s most ordinary house and transformed it, room by room, by ordinary people on an ordinary budget, into Britain’s Most Extraordinary Home. Starting as a three-bedroomed, semi-detached, ex-council house in Essex, today not a single square centimetre of the original house remains. In its place is an extraordinary labyrinth of locations, each set in different times and places. Talliston is a once ordinary house and gardens in Essex where its thirteen rooms have been transformed into extraordinary locations each set in a different time and place. Magnolia living rooms have been recreated as Welsh watchtowers. Garages as log cabins in the woods. Box-rooms as 1920s investigator offices. A former pink bedroom is now a dark and haunted Scottish chamber. Talliston – a name that means ‘the hidden place in the wood’ – in the medieval market town of Great Dunmow, just minutes from Stansted airport, is another world hiding on a perfectly normal street, inviting you to step inside and discover its secrets.
