45+ Fun, Friends and Social

Coffee Time is a long held tradition ! We r a group of fun , kind , inclusive, and interesting coffee & tea enthusiasts. We meet once a week in a different coffee shop throughout the downtown core . Sign up to attend ,and enjoy the experience 👍 See You soon 😊

Beginners golf is a good way to stay connected to nature , socialize, and work on Your hand eye coordination ⛳️. We have alot of laughs while desperately trying to get that little white ball in the hole 🕳️! Join us for a good time with some really VV nice golfers 🏌️. Happy hour is alot of fun too 👍

Hydra is a popular favourite and this will be our 5th time here in 18 months. The meatballs slathered in special sauce are allegedly the best in town according to Sharon who admits she has had her fair share of meatballs all over the world. We may also quietly celebrate an anniversary!

Unfortunately, the more upmarket venues that we sometimes frequent for HH have recently become more strict about deposit and minimum spend and as such please only attend if you expect to spend at least more than $25. The limit is presently set for 12 attendees but I will almost certainly increase this if there is demand so please do join the waitlist. Don't let any of this put you off as it won't have any impact on the usual fun we have at Happy Hour events! FYI, Hydra is actually upstairs in the Exchange Hotel

Anyone recently new to the group, this is a pretty popular and very friendly event, please read the lengthy but hopefully helpful verbiage at the end of this to get an idea of what this Happy Hour group is all about. The below is always added to this events text and is intended for anyone new to this event and unsure whether to come and join us. Please read and feel comfortable and confident to come along!

We are a very friendly and welcoming bunch so no need to be nervous about coming along for the first time. A few pointers for potential newbies

If this is the first time you’ve seen this event or you’ve always wanted to come but were a little hesitant to join us, we are very genuinely a group of easy going people who will ensure any newcomers are more than welcome and made to feel comfortable and at home as soon as you sit down. Talk as much or as little as you want. This isn’t about drinking solidly for 3 hours of happy hour bargain prices, just a gathering of lovely people who love good company and $6 glasses of wine and/or beer. Attending an event for the first time can be like your first day at a new school, standing on the edge of the playground waiting for eye contact. We will welcome you with open arms to come and join us on the swings or in the sandbox as soon as we meet you.

There are hardly any rules tor the Happy Hour event. Join coffee or drinks only. Join both. Turn up whenever you want. Wear whatever you want. Turn up with whomever you want. Latecomers are always welcomed, never judged. No 7 strikes and you’re out. It’s a weekday late afternoon event and life happens, just let me know if you can’t make it so we don’t have to save a seat for you. Bring a guest. Be a guest only and message me directly if you are not yet a member of the group but would like to try first before you buy. I remember the tentative terror of attending my first event!!

The only rule is please steer clear of any and all strong political views.

I, and all in the group, very much look forward to meeting and welcoming new people into what is really a lovely, comfortable and fun way to spend a Thursday afternoon.
