This week we'll discuss chapter 9 of [How Language Began](https://www.amazon.co.uk/How-Language-Began-Humanitys-Invention/dp/1781253935/ref=sr_1_1?crid=27SNUKXPY1BWO&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.pTtn5alJgGZxLimiVijnr1oxTj0AiKpPdpaaVkIUio1hwzPu48_laQFrsnpFEGZMkWvnwbcALfmeyhyeuVQbcNCtoB6oD_Bg6K-GRhzBWrI.g5fzcdJdVKVgxgrTe1s6wn3c6dilMbYkHbhe_yGuzbQ&dib_tag=se&keywords=how+language+began&qid=1768693702&s=books&sprefix=how+language+began%2Cstripbooks%2C90&sr=1-1), by Daniel Everett. In this work Everett presents his views about the origin of language -- that it is a culturally evolved tool for communication, not the product of innate biological instinct or pre-wired universal grammar. If this is your first time attending we meet in The William Morris pub in Hammersmith -- look for for people with copies of How Language Began. Please read the chapter before attending.

We are based at the Bridge Tap at London Bridge. Come and join us for our monthly social. It is important to note that the group will have an area reserved. We will reserve a corner sofa area so should be easy to locate on the night. We will also have meetup signs as well. The staff will also be aware of our group so by all means ask on arrival. You will be able to spot us as you walk into the pub. As a result of the group having increased in size and the large number of divers attending the social evenings we have changed venue so we have more space and so that we can have an outside area during the warmer summer months. Come and join us!!! As the pub is a Stonegate pub they have a great variety of ales and all drinks. They have the fantastic ale library which has over 20+ ales and a whisky showcase. They also have a great variety of good quality wines and food as well. POSTCODE FOR GOOGLEMAPS = The Bridge Tap - 32–34 Borough High Street, London - London Bridge, SE1 1XU This venue is right in the heart of London Bridge. It is well known for a large selection of craft beers. We will be located in one of the corner sofas which has enough room for 20+ and provides the group with a much better location. This is a monthly meetup to enable all members to have an input on future meetups and enable everyone to meet new members and encourage introductions. We now have at least 20 divers at every monthly social. Why not come down and join us for a drink and meet the group. It will also be a chance to provide an outline of future trips and diving destinations and provide further information on existing scheduled diving trips if anyone has any questions. This meet up might be an opportunity to meet members who have booked on the same trip as you in advance of your departure. We look forward to seeing you all. DIRECTIONS The easiest way to get to the bar is from London Bridge Station. You will need to exit onto any Borough High Street Exit from London Bridge Underground Station. You will then need to walk further down Borough High Street for a few metres. You can see the Bridge Tap Pub marked on the map below for easy location.

Join us at **Craft Beer Co. Brixton** for an honest, practical panel discussion on **self-publishing**, featuring authors who’ve successfully done it and an industry expert who helps make it happen. Self-publishing can offer creative control, speed, and direct access to readers, but it also comes with big questions. In this panel Q&A, we’ll explore the self-publishing journey from multiple perspectives. Our panellists will discuss how they’ve brought their books into the world and what they’ve learnt along the way, with plenty of time for audience questions. We’ll also be joined by **Rachael Jones**, Key Account Manager at **IngramSpark**, an award-winning independent publishing platform that enables authors and publishers to produce and distribute professional print books and ebooks worldwide. Rachael will offer insight into the indie publishing landscape and explain how platforms like IngramSpark fit into the wider publishing ecosystem. **Our Panelist Authors** **Alpha M. C. Cauwenbergh** Alpha is an anomaly of the literary world. His latest novel, *The Rain: Death & All His Friends*, is the talk of book conventions up and down the country. Its diverse characters & seldom-seen narratives are surpassed in uniqueness only by the book’s design. A hybrid novel of prose and manga that could reshape the Sci-Fi Fantasy Landscape. Alpha hasn’t come to authorship from traditional literary academia but from boundless optimism and a tireless work ethic. Years of writing short fiction, poems and Haikus have cultivated an acclaimed craftsmanship in storytelling he now wants to share with the world. His book is available online, at indie bookshops across the UK & select stores in the Netherlands. **Camilla Andrew** Camilla is the award-winning indie author behind *The Essence of the Equinox*—a darkly romantic fantasy trilogy about gods, monsters, and the intoxicating power dynamics between them. Known for her poetic prose and morally complex characters, Andrew has cultivated a dedicated readership worldwide. Her work has also featured in the Cloaked Press Fall into Fantasy anthology and midnight & indigo. **Sage Abiola** Sage Abiola is a British-Nigerian technologist, artist, author and creator of *The Falliblle*. His identity has always been marked by duality: African and British. Scientific and artistic. Analytical but intuitive. That duality lies at the heart of *The Falliblle*: a high-stakes, philosophical sci-fi novel about a world that tries to eliminate failure, only to discover that without it, nothing real can grow. This story is not just fiction. It is a mirror. A way of asking: What do we lose when we chase perfection? What do we become when we forget how to fall? Whether you’re considering self-publishing, already on the indie path, or simply curious about alternative routes to publication, this panel offers a rare opportunity to learn directly from creators and industry professionals working at the heart of indie publishing today.

Exploring the musical archives with captivation at both a very young age and later as music radio presentator, club DJ & musicologist - I discovered only snippets of an estimated 97 million songs even though I went all the way back to the 17th century! If you love music, then you'll know it's not just entertainment but a spritual soulful experiene ("I hear my compositions as a single point of light, all I do is hold that point of light in my mind whilst I write it down" Wolfgang Mozart) So let's immense ourselves in our passion by enjoying music, singing, dancing with drinks in hand whilst broadening our music knowledge and exposure by discovering new material, artists and even genres at fun musically themed night out for passionate music lovers in the UK home of rock n roll - Camden of course! Contemporary or old - you must be passionate about music which means you will be prepared to talk about your favourite song(s) and or artist(s), influences and underlying reasons at ease. What is it that makes them stand out and unique? Does the song have personal relevance to you? Are the lyrics poetic or a philosophical masterpiece like in some old hip-hop or is it about the sound of the vocals or hypnotic melodies? Did the song (or artist) play a pivotal role in shaping political change & influence in society (yes some musicians have even died for their artform) or the evolution of new music genres, sub cultures and underground music movements today? Was Lennon & McCartney the greatest ever singer song writer combo or have you heard better? Who are the best all time music producers & song writers - Max Martin, Billy Joel, George Martin, Quincy Jones, Bernie Taupin, Dr Dre, Carole King? Did PWL records destroy the British music scene or contribute to it? We can also touch on influential music producers, labels, DJs and radio stations as well. Discussion on all elements of musicology and enablers is up for grabs. If you can - come prepared with links to samples (feel free to post youtube and other links in the comments section below) to demonstrate or be willing to sing/rap some lyrics so we can get an idea. Funky dance moves optional. =========RENDEZVOUS POINT ================= We will meet inside Amy Winehouse's local - the Hawley Arms. I'll be wearing Starwars lanyard and will share my number an hour before the event in the comments in case of issues finding us. We will spend about an average of 90 mins per bar. Lucas

**Caller: Kim Thompson** **Band: Full Moon Country Dance Orchestra** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle.

Bring your Raspberry Pi, Arduino, microcontroller, or any other electronic project and join fellow electronics makers for a night of creativity and collaboration! This session is open forum to share your current projects—whether complete or in progress, it’s all interesting! Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building. While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
