April's first Science Fiction meetup.
April's first Science Fiction meetup.
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 11th 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.
Royal Institution "Animal Dissection Live"
Royal Institution "Animal Dissection Live"
This is a **theatre** and **livestream** talk from the **Royal Institution of Great Britain.** Get a fascinating look at animal biology with a live dissection of an animal as part of a full afternoon of wonder for all ages. **ADVANCE BOOKING AND PAYMENT IS REQUIRED FOR THIS TALK.** **More details and booking instructions on the RI web site:** **[https://www.rigb.org/whats-on/animal-dissection-live](https://www.rigb.org/whats-on/animal-dissection-live)** **SUMMARY** Join **Ben Garrod,** from the **University of East Anglia,** and veterinary surgeon **Jess French** for a very special afternoon at the Ri, with a unique opportunity to find out about the workings of the body at a lion dissection. Across the course of the event, Ben, Jess and their team will dissect the animal in our Theatre, explaining the anatomy as they go, and revealing the fascinating facts it can tell us about our own bodies. During an extended interval, you'll have the opportunity to explore hands-on demonstrations and activities to learn even more about how animal biology works. This event is open to all ages. Ben and Jess are very experienced in presenting this to a younger audience, as well as adults, and we encourage everyone to attend. Attendees will be able to come and go as they please if they require a break during the long sessions. Those who are particularly squeamish may choose to sit further back in the Theatre. **Event timings:** **1:00pm – 2:30pm – Dissection Session 1** **2:30pm – 3:45pm – Interval with pop-up activities** **3:45pm – 5:00pm – Dissection Session 2** **Disclaimer: The animal died of old age and has been donated for the purpose of education. The specific animal is subject to change.** With thanks to University of East Anglia for making this event possible. This is a theatre and livestream event for an adult audience, where the speakers and audience in our Theatre are joined by our audience online. **The livestream will go live around 6.50pm, and the talk will begin at 7.00pm. If you register but miss the livestream, the video will be available to you via the same link for two weeks after the event date.** For more information on livestreams, see the information below, or [visit our FAQs page](https://www.rigb.org/whats/faqs-ri-livestreams).

Show up when you can, and stay as long as you like. If you’re having a good time, there’s usually a group that stays late for a few extra pints and chat. **Some house rules:** * We aim to ensure these events are friendly, welcoming and safe, and so we ask you abide by our [Code of Conduct](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YEl0gv61SkBFN-YF6fyVvuQYicWbWhRL/view?usp=drive_link) * We have a community box of games we keep in the pub, but please feel welcome to bring your own games along. Just be prepared to teach us how to play! * We don't charge a cover fee, so please help support the pub by ordering food and drink throughout the afternoon. * Please keep your RSVPs updated so we can manage numbers and ensure we can reserve enough tables.

An expert in mental fitness and high-performance, Sadiq has transformed from a shy soul into a charismatic servant leader. His mission is to touch 33 million hearts, inspiring others to find their purpose through the philosophy of **Conscious Human Ascensions.** **Hey Legends! :)** Are you tired of fitness and exercise being just about burning calories, diets, boring workout or tough weight training sessions? Are you looking for a movement practice that feels as good for your brain as it does for your body..? Our Founder, Sadiq knows exactly how that feels, as he's been on a creative, fun and explorational movement journey for over 9 yrs now. He started with bodyweight training, then moving into calisthentics and animal flow primal moves over the years of his practice. In a world of static gym machines and digital distraction, the ultimate competitive advantage is **Mobility + Mindful Presence.** Join ***MYNDtopia*** for a primal immersion designed for founders, high-performers and conscious souls who want to bridge the gap between physical peak performance and spiritual evolution. This isn’t just a "workout" session. It’s a **Conscious Infrastructure** for your body. We are gathering a curated tribe to explore the intersection of ground-based movement and the science of human optimisation and peak, high performance. #### **The Experience** **Primal flow state \~** We begin with a mindful warmup, followed by an **Animal Flow** session \~ a bodyweight movement system designed to improve mobility, strength and neuromuscular communication.

Build relationships based on shared values, not just job titles #### #### **Who Is This For?** **Founders & Leaders \~** who need to de-stress their nervous systems and regain mobility lost to "desk culture" **Longevity Lovers** \~ those looking to upgrade their physical "hardware" through mindful movement **Conscious Movers \~** people who believe that physical mastery is a non-negotiable priority for spiritual ascension **The Ambitious & Aware \~** anyone seeking a tribe that values deep work and authentic health over surface-level aesthetics ### #### **Why Attend?** In a city of 4 million, finding a "tribe" that prioritises both high performance and deep mindfulness can be rare. MYNDtopia filters for **quality, integrity and consciousness** so you don't have to :) **You'll leave with:** **1) A New Movement Language \~** Foundations of Animal Flow to use in your daily routine **2) Biological Clarity \~** Practical tools for physical ascension + human optimisation **3) Genuine Connections \~** 3–5 high-level collaborators who align with your health vision **Dress Code:** Move-ready / Athletic-wear (Consciously comfortable & respectful) ***FEEL FREE TO BRING YOUR OWN WATER BOTTLES + YOGA MATS :)*** ***HOT DRINKS, WATER + LIGHT HEALTHY REFRESHMENTS WILL BE PROVIDED...*** **Note:** Spaces are strictly limited to ensure intimacy and high-quality facilitation.

❤️🎬 THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD
❤️🎬 THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD
*✨**The Worst Person in the World is a wistful and subversive romantic drama about the quest for love and meaning in contemporary Oslo.*** 👋 **Hey everyone**, we’re watching a film that revolves around Julie (a dazzling star-making central performance from **Renate Reinsve**), a vibrant and impulsive young woman who, on the verge of turning thirty, is faced with **a series of drastic choices** that force her to **continually reinvent** and pursue new perspectives on her life… Over the course of several years, Julie navigates **multiple love affairs,** **existential uncertainty** and career dissatisfaction as she slowly starts deciding what she wants to do, who she wants to be with, and ultimately who she wants to become. [Trailer](https://youtu.be/w_cV1q02cyE) Co-starring Trier regular **Anders Danielsen** Lie and **Herbert Nordrum** as the men pivoting around Julie’s magnetic presence. **This is as much a formally playful character study as it is a poignant and perceptive observation of quarter-life angst. It’s a wry, life-affirming coming of age story.** **See you guys at the meet up** **Ray** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 👉 **HEADS UP** * If you **sign up** but later can’t make it, **please** 🙏 **drop us a quick message** (or change your RSVP).

Saturday Tabletop Games at Premiere Cinemas
Saturday Tabletop Games at Premiere Cinemas
It's **Saturday** & our main night of the week & the fun & games are just getting started here at DWL! We're located here in the Cinema (which can be found on the 3rd floor of the Mercury Mall Shopping Centre) on: * **Tuesdays & Thursdays**: From 17:30 to 22:00. * **Saturdays**: From 12:00 to 22:00 🦁 And we're still running every Monday 6pm to 11pm at the Golden Lion Pub too. 🌭☕ There are hot & cold food & drink options available from the cinema at low prices! Supporting Premiere Cinema by buying their food & drink IS supporting Dicing With Life! The cinema has been very generous to us by bringing us into their space & our way of showing our gratitude is by sending some business their way. And their menu is surprisingly cheap! Especially compared to any other cinema. Here's some cool examples of some great **offers**: Buy a large **Popcorn** (it's a huge bucket!) or a large **fizzy drink** & it'll initially cost you £4, BUT, take your bucket or cup back to the bar for a **refill** & the cinema will refill it back up to the top for just £2! 🍿🥤 That's half price Popcorn & Pop! This also applies to **Ice Blasts** too (£5 initially but to refill it's just £3). There's also Hot Dogs, Nachos, Pick n Mix & many other treats in store too! Check out their menu 😋 If you have any questions, please ask & let the fun commence! 🎲

Humanist Program
Humanist Program
The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee.
