M,
It's really easy going. Just a group of people getting together on a Friday, either just sitting around chatting, watching others, or having a go yourself. They've got a kitchen/bar where they sell booze, tea, cakes etc. Just a relaxing Friday night really. So yeah bring your fella along! I think it costs £3 or something??
And people are really good at teaching stuff if you ask them!
"Would we get in the way".....don't be silly!! The more the merrier!
Might see you down there one week.

I hope we will make it one day - we're v. busy over the festive period, so it won't be until some time in the new year at the earliest, but I'll see what I can do.

I'm a woman. We don't say what we want, but we reserve the right to be pissed off if we don't get it. That's what makes us so fascinating and not just a LITTLE bit scary.

Not me either, it's our work's christmas party thingy soon. And it's not at The Bunker either, so I can't spin fire at it.
I will, however, be there tomorrow. Luv 'n' Lemons

Hmmph, don't know whether this is running or not. They said they weren't then they were then they said they were and they weren't and now i've sort of given up on it a bit.
