After Lock and Key Party ends everyone is welcome to stay and mingle freely with others. For those who like a bit of dance floor action, the venue has a DJ keeping the energy high in the basement bar until late. (You must arrive no later than 19.30 to register) Lock and key parties are all about matching the lock with the right key and meeting people of the opposite gender. Fantastic venue with plenty of space and you can party all night and meet your match and win prizes later on in the evening. Essentially the lock & key provides you with the perfect icebreaker and forms the catalyst for a very sociable and fun night out. On entry, ladies are given a lock and gents are given a key. Guest then circulates to find a match to their lock or key. The aim is to meet as many as people as possible in one night, and have fun along the way. These events allow for you to be as forward as you like work the room like the social and you are or stand back and let people come to you! It works great both ways. When and if you find your match you then return to one of our friendly and helpful hosts who will arrange for you to be given another lock or key. We call this a match, through a relationship isn’t compulsory! You’ve met someone new and now this is your chance to win one of our great prizes that are drawn throughout the evening. Return to the organizer’s desk (with your match) and present us with your open lock and key. Our host will give you both a new lock and key and you’ll both pick up free raffle ticket to win some great prizes later on in the evening but also the chance to find your ideal match! You’re free to continue meeting new people or chatting to your latest match. If the key doesn’t open the lock, not to worry move onto the next person, you will meet plenty of people in one night, remember it is a party. The lock and key icebreaker part of the evening lasts around two hours. After the event you will have met loads of new people so most people stay on and continue mingling. But don’t go rushing off – most people have met lots of people by then so it’s time to get down to the business of flirting and swapping numbers! You can stay in the venue until it closes and from experience most people do. You are welcome to stay on in the venue as they often stay open late. Alternatively some people will move on and dance the night away with their new friends. The choice is yours. Venue: Drake and Morgan Bar is eclectic, eccentric escape from the daily grind. Drake and Morgan Bar the perfect place to relax and recharge by day, then party through the night. **Please Note: when the Lock & Key Party end at 10.00pm or if you decide to leave before, then please hand over all your Locks & Keys to your organiser.** Dress Code: Smart Elegant or Smart Casual.

Spanish Spring Weekend Fermín, an abstract painter facing a personal and financial crisis, lives in his friend’s studio in Madrid. He hides a tremor in his hand and initially refuses to enter a competition. However, he changes his mind after receiving a foreclosure notice and with the unexpected arrival of his son. Together, they will try to overcome their differences to create a modern version of Bosch’s The Garden of Earthly Delights. Considered one of the masters of contemporary Spanish comedy, Fernando Colomo wrote the script with his son Pablo, taking as a starting point their own father-son relationship, in a film they describe as a sort of “autofiction”. We will go for a drink to discuss the film.

This isn’t your run-of-the-mill bookstore; it’s a 32-room literary wonderland that would make even the most seasoned bibliophile’s head spin (one of the largest in the country)! **MEET**: We'll gather outside the storefront and then start browsing... **DESSERT**: We'll grab some famous macaroons to start our foodie tour. [Pistacia Vera](https://www.pistaciavera.com/) is a delicious bakery and cafe in the German Village. This charming shop is especially known for its classic macarons. **HAPPY HOUR**: Italian drinks and bites at [Cento's happy hour](https://centogermanvillage.com/menus/). **PARKING**: Street parking all around here. Check the parking time limit. The bookstore and the foodie stops are all on 3rd Street within 4 blocks on the same side of the street.
