09.Jul.2025, 6:30pm: Drinking Liberally - at The Studio Public House

We shall again gather this Wednesday, 6:30pm onward, at The Studio.

PLEASE NOTE :) ...The Studio will be in business at least through the summer. Mike & Ali are looking for a new location, given that the owner of the location is selling it for development -- but we have a home through the summer and we'll continue to support The Studio.

Please note that several "regulars" show up most weeks, and therefore do not RSVP. Don't worry if you are new and only see a few RSVPs if you look at Meetup :) Anyone is welcome (as long as they are civil), and we talk about pretty much ANYthing -- some of which is political and plenty that is just life in general :)

See ya'll Wednesday, 6:30pm onwards, at The Studio Public House.
