*Your Monthly Monday Social* **Dublin deserves more Quality Time—and a lot more play 🎲💜** Mondays are officially getting a makeover. We’ve teamed up with the stunning **Ruby Molly Hotel** to bring you **"Game On,"** a monthly residency dedicated to the joy of board games, card games, and genuine human connection. Forget the Monday blues and the boredom. We’re transforming this boutique space into a cosy, quality gaming lounge where the only "player" you need to be is yourself. *** ✨ The Quality Time Experience: Whether you’re a strategic mastermind or just looking for a laugh over a simple card game, we’ve curated an evening that takes the "awkward" out of meeting new people. * **🃏 Curated Play:** We provide a selection of classic board games, modern favourites, and card-based games. * **🤝 Built-in Community:** Our keepers (Maja & Lexie) are on hand to help facilitate games and introduce you to new friends. You never have to worry about "finding a seat"—we make sure everyone is part of the game. * **💜 Pure Presence:** Phones are tucked away so you can focus on the cards in your hand and the people across the table. * **🍸 Boutique Vibes:** Enjoy the stylish, relaxed atmosphere of the Ruby Molly with a cocktail or coffee in hand. *** 🕰️ The Schedule: * **18:30 – 19:00 \| The Warm\-Up:** Arrive, grab a drink, and settle in. We’ll help pair you up with a game and a group. * **19:00 – 21:00 \| Game On:** Two hours of uninterrupted play and social time. Switch tables, try a new game, or stick with your crew! * **21:00 – 21:30 \| The Cool Down:** Wrap up the final rounds and enjoy some relaxed conversation before heading home recharged. *** 📍 The Details: * **When:** Every 3rd Monday of the month. * **Where:** Ruby Molly Hotel. * **Tickets:** Free! * **Support the Venue:** The Ruby Molly is a no-cash hotel. Please support our hosts by enjoying their bar and snack menu! 💳 *** 🐥 Who is this for? * **Solo Adventurers:** Most people come alone! We are experts at making you feel welcome and getting you into a game immediately. * **Friends & Partners:** Bring a "plus one" for some quality time outside the house. * **Everyone:** From Jenga pros to Uno beginners—all levels (and ages) of "gamer" are welcome. *** **Dublin deserves more Quality Time.** Let’s play! **Love, Maja & Lexie** 🦄🦆🎲 *(The Quality Time Team)*

TOG Watch Night: The Secret Life of Components (Tim Hunkin) We’re kicking off a new bi-weekly Monday Watch Night at TOG. We’ll watch an episode of Tim Hunkin’s “The Secret Life of Components” together, then have a relaxed Q&A and discussion afterwards. This is a friendly, low-pressure way to learn the kind of practical tips you normally only pick up through years of making, fixing, and building. Perfect for beginners, makers, repair folks, and engineers who enjoy the practical side of components and mechanisms. How it works \- Watch together \(one episode per night\) \- Q&A and chat after: questions\, examples\, tangents\, and “how would we do this at TOG?” \- If you miss a week\, no stress\. Watch it at home and come along to the next one First session \- Monday 26 January \- Episode 1: Chain \- Free and open to all \- TOG Hackerspace \(Dublin 12\, D12 CF6V\) Full details: https://www.tog.ie/2026/01/tog-watch-night-the-secret-life-of-components-tim-hunkin/

Come along to get rid of the number one fear people have. Every week we have new members and people starting from scratch so you will not be alone. Everything is based around what you're comfortable with and you don't have to stand up, talk or do anything if you don't feel like it. But you will have the opportunity to speak at least 4/5 times a night. You can come along to see what we're doing and take part if you like. We will be running this for beginners every week and anyone is welcome to join us to learn and get better together. Hope to see you there :D We charge €5 to help towards the room rental.

We will mindfully walk by the Liffey and do some short sitting meditation in the rose gardens. Meet first in the car park and walk to the adjacent memorial park.

Almost mid-summers day, although you might be suspect of that actually being the case, and incredibly after this week's run the nights start to draw in - Only seems like yesterday that it was Xmas - But never fear, there is a rumour that summer weather may be around the corner, so this week we will run to **Peggy Kelly's in Harolds X,** and a great place to imbibe after a good run around the area. For newcomers, our Group Runs are great fun, safe for all, and once the run is complete, we can share a beer, have a good chat, make new friends, and look forward to the following week. The route map is here - https://www.mappedometer.com/?maproute=984254 Regards, Liam

**Work Together, Win Together.** The Future of Work isn’t just jobs or going solo; it’s groups of people building things together. Collabie is where you can join forces with other like-minded people to create ideas, projects, apps, income, and assets, etc. I aim to have experts in AI & Automation on hand to help guests, too. Everyone will get to participate in my new Collabie experience and introduce themselves to others there in an Open Mic section. Come along and collaborate with like-minded people who want to help each other succeed. **Extras** \- Portobello Bar\, Dublin 2 \- D02 CF40 \- Doors open at 6pm \- Some volunteers are invited to help out and get some event experience \- Food & drink are available to purchase at the venue **Previous Feedback -** Rishmita Aich "I loved how inclusive, informative, and open the community was. I've been to professional networking events before, and sometimes they tend to get a bit cliquey (when too many senior execs or startup founders are involved), but I was really glad this wasn't like that at all!" **The Organiser** I’m an innovator in digital business for 25 years, including starting and selling a personal brand side hustle called 'Connector'. Recently, I published a book about the Future of Work, introducing the idea of Career Assets, as the Career Ladder is broken. I will have some copies of 'Learn Earn Own' available at a special offer price of €10 if you want a signed copy.
