The event for this month is still to be decided, pending a few enquiries with people who may be willing to give talks. Rest assured, there is a fun backup plan which will kick in shortly if no progress is made.
What is certain is that the general structure of the evening will be unchanged so here is a rough guide for the evening:
17:45 - 18:15: Informally, a number of us are likely to be at the StreetFoodChef on Arundel Street for burritos. While these are not provided as part of attending, anyone is welcome to join us.
18:30 - 18:45: Meeting starts with some time for announcements and usually some chatter.
18:45 - 20:30: The main event/events.
20:30 - late : Migrate to a local pub (in recent months we have chosen the Tap and Tankard on Cambridge Street, near John Lewis) for post event drinks. Note that this part of the evening is probably not suitable for any children to join in with, though this does depend on the rules set by the pub.
Attendance is free and the event is intended to be suitable for all levels of python experience.
If the talk plan falls through it may be a good idea to bring a laptop. Check back here closer to the date to see if this becomes a firm recommendation. Any under 18s who wish to attend must be accompanied by an adult, preferably also with an interest in Python but this is something that can be worked on over the course of the evening!

The event for this month will be another of our legendary coding events. This time we are going to attempt to collaboratively write a simple text adventure game. As all other coding events we generally expect to split into pairs or small groups but this time our fruit of our labour will be stitched together into a greater whole.
Here is a rough guide for timings for the evening:
17:45 - 18:15: Informally, a number of us are likely to be at the StreetFoodChef on Arundel Street for burritos. While these are not provided as part of attending, anyone is welcome to join us.
18:30 - 18:45: Meeting starts with some time for announcements and usually some chatter.
18:45 - 20:15: The main coding period.
20:15 - 20:30: We'll attempt to put everything together and play through the resulting program.
20:30 - late : Migrate to a local pub (in recent months we have chosen the Tap and Tankard on Cambridge Street, near John Lewis) for post event drinks. Note that this part of the evening is probably not suitable for any children to join in with, though this does depend on the rules set by the pub.
Attendance is free and the event is intended to be suitable for all levels of python experience. It is advisable to bring a laptop with Python 3 already installed on it.
Any under 18s who wish to attend must be accompanied by an adult, preferably also with an interest in Python but this is something that can be worked on over the course of the evening!
