Would you enjoy a relaxed evening with fellow Science Fiction and Fantasy fans? If so, we’d love to meet you. Our next gathering takes place on **Saturday 25th April from 6pm** at **The Mad Hatter**, just by Blackfriars Bridge. Drop in, say hello, and join us for a drink. We’re a long‑running group that’s been meeting since **1998**—long before meetup sites existed. Over the years we’ve hosted celebrity meet‑and‑greets, attended conventions together, run role‑playing games, organised cinema trips, LARPs, and plenty more. These pub meetups are all about socialising and connecting with other Sci‑Fi and Fantasy enthusiasts. To help break the ice, we’ll be running a fun **team quiz at 8.30pm**. There’s no fee to attend—just pay for whatever food or drink you order at the venue.

At 400ft (122m) deep and three miles (4.8km) long, Cheddar Gorge is England's largest gorge, boasting subterranean caverns with impressive displays of stalactites and stalagmites. Britain's oldest complete human skeleton, known as Cheddar Man, was found here, as was some extremely rare Ice Age art. Cheddar is also the birthplace of the world-famous Cheddar cheese. We're going to visit the Cheddar Gorge Cheese Company – a family-owned, independent small artisan cheesemaker, that makes the only authentic Cheddar cheese in the world! Cheese is produced by hand, using traditional methods, such as using raw milk, traditional animal rennet, and a cloth wrapping. Of course, no visit would be complete without tasting the renowned authentic Cheddar cheese and purchasing some gifts for your friends and loved ones! **TRIP HIGHLIGHTS** * Enjoy a cliff-top walk around the famous Cheddar Gorge, with its weathered crags and pinnacles. There will be some rocky paths and stiff climbs, but all of your efforts will be well rewarded by the jaw-dropping beauty around you! * Explore mysterious chambers of Gough's and Cox's Caves, that are over 500,000 years old! Marvel at the incredible rock formations and the outstandingly beautiful chambers of St Paul’s Cathedral, Solomon’s Temple and Aladdin’s Cave. * See picturesque stalagmites and stalactites inside the caves. * Visit the Cheddar Gorge Cheese Company, and see how the only authentic Cheddar cheese is made! **DISTANCE & DIFFICULTY** Distance: 3 miles (5km).

A relaxed Saturday afternoon in Notting Hill — just a light wander through some of the nicer, quieter streets, with a stop for coffee after. We’ll meet at 2 pm and keep an easy pace — nothing structured, just a simple way to spend a couple of hours and meet a few people without it feeling like a big group event. We’ll stay away from the busier parts and keep it more relaxed, then stop somewhere for coffee towards the end. People can stay on or head off whenever they like. Small, friendly group — easy to join, nothing intense or formal. Meeting point: outside Farm Girl (Notting Hill)

**📈 Grade: 🥾🥾🥾 Level 3 of 5 (a few short steep inclines)** \-\-\- **🧠 How it will feel** Regular hikers → very easy Casual walkers → easy to moderate Newcomers → moderate \-\-\- Walk among wild deer, ancient woodland, and a hidden moated manor on one of Kent’s most beautiful routes. This stunning circular hike begins in the vast grounds of Knole Park, just a short walk from Sevenoaks town centre. Spanning over 1,000 acres, this historic medieval deer park dates back to the 15th century and remains one of the best-preserved landscapes of its kind in England. As you wander through, keep an eye out for herds of fallow and sika deer roaming freely, often passing surprisingly close. From here, the route opens out into a rich mix of rolling parkland, ancient woodland, and open countryside. In summer, nearby lavender fields burst into colour and fragrance, adding a distinctly Kentish charm to the experience. Along the way, you’ll enjoy sweeping views across the North Downs, with plenty of scenic spots to pause, take photos, or simply soak it all in. A true highlight of the day is a visit to Ightham Mote, a beautifully preserved 14th-century moated manor house cared for by the National Trust. It feels like stepping into a storybook. The route follows a mix of woodland trails and open field paths, with some uneven and stony sections. There are also short stretches along quiet country roads without pavements. After rain, expect some muddy patches, but nothing that detracts from the overall experience. You’ll encounter gentle inclines, a few short steeper climbs, as well as stiles and gates along the way. At the heart of the park sits Knole House, an impressive stately home surrounded by expansive grounds that are free to explore. This is one of the most varied and rewarding walks in Kent for its distance, combining nature, history, and great company in a relaxed and social setting. To finish, we’ll stroll back through Sevenoaks town, with an optional pub stop for those who fancy a well-earned drink before heading home. \-\-\- **⚠️ DANGER:** Please keep a safe distance from the deer. They have large antlers and can be unpredictable if startled. Getting too close may put you at risk of injury. \-\-\- **OVERVIEW** 📏 Distance: 18 km (11 miles) 💪 Difficulty: Easy to Moderate ⛰️ Ascent: 232 m \| Descent: 230 m ⏱️ Walking time: \~4.5 to 5 hours 🕒 Total duration: \~6 hours (including breaks) 🚶 Pace: Steady and moderate (4.5 to 5 km/h).

**Come join us for some fun in the park** This is a weekly social park gathering with optional sports and board / social games. 2pm Rounders 3:30pm Social/Board games in the park- please sign up separately [HERE](https://www.meetup.com/games-friends/)[.](https://meetu.ps/e/PfHPb/z45zT/i) **How to play rounders** Not played rounders before? It's a traditional English sport for everyone, even the unsporty. Here's a video of us playing: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6Bya3T5W3k](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6Bya3T5W3k) Rounders is a bat and ball game similar to baseball played by two teams. Your team will be either fielding or batting before swapping after the innings. When batting, the aim is to hit the ball, then try and run around the four posts. Your team gets a rounder if you make it round the four posts without stopping or getting out. You are out if when you hit the ball someone catches the ball before it reaches the ground or someone stumps a post before you get there. The rules will be explained at the beginning of each meetup with a practice round at the beginning. We play a slightly modified version of the official rules where if you are out, it's not game over for you. Your team will lose a life instead. This will give everyone multiple opportunities to bat. **It's very simple to pick up and the ball we use is very soft. We are very beginner friendly and the focus is on having fun rather than being competitive**. We attract attendees of all ages and sporting level. You are welcome to come and watch only too. We usually have a few people who do so while having a picnic and enjoying the park. **Come and meet us** Meet at 2pm in Regents Park. Here is the map of where we will be playing in the park (Cumberland Green): [https://www.notion.so/hyau/Rounders-at-Regents-Park-8bc419b72dde4aacaec3870d291636be](https://www.notion.so/hyau/Rounders-at-Regents-Park-8bc419b72dde4aacaec3870d291636be) You can also find us around here: [https://what3words.com/swim.jolly.youth](https://what3words.com/swim.jolly.youth) (just look out for our white rounders bases (long, white sticks) and you can usually spot us.

There may be limited spaces for men for football as we are always oversubscribed. **Free or play for charity** Our Sunday social and rounders events are free for everyone. The organisers volunteer their time and fund for the equipment, public liability insurance, marketing and meetup costs to make this happen. We would like our events to raise awareness and money for worthwhile charities. If you appreciate our events, please consider making a donation on our fundraising page to our supported charity, War Child. To donate and for more info, please visit: [https://www.justgiving.com/page/social-sports-mix-warchild](https://www.justgiving.com/page/social-sports-mix-warchild) We will also promote fundraising pages suggested or owned by our attendees. Get in touch if you are attending and also charity fundraising.

We’re bringing back Adult Field Day. Last year was a good mix of competition and just hanging out, so we’re doing it again with some new games mixed in. Think team-based challenges, simple races, and a few things inspired by game shows. You don’t need to be athletic. Most of the fun is just being part of a team and getting to know people you wouldn’t normally talk to. The goal isn’t really winning. It’s meeting people, laughing a bit, and leaving knowing a few more names than when you showed up. If you stick around after, we’ll have a potluck, a bonfire, and a couple comedians in the evening. Bring: * Something to share for the potluck * Clothes you can move around in A small contribution helps keep events sustainable and ensures those who RSVP actually show up. Include your Meetup name + event name in the note. Please send $2 per person to guarantee your spot. Venmo (preferred) or PayPal @WiseUnlimitedLLC Actual links in comments below! Include your Meetup name + event name in the note.
