Drink, nibble, chat - Croydon Social Networking @ The Oval Tavern
For those of you who want a nice relaxed drink and not necessarily a meal to accompany it, Croydon Eats Out brings you a regular opportunity to meet, drink and have a nibble - well, it has to involve some sort of eating!
When you arrive, please look out for the Meet Up sign or ask at the bar as we have booked an area.
Whether you'd prefer to dive straight in to conversation with other CEO members or would like an introduction is entirely up to you, so look out for Fran who is your host.
Travel:
Please check the TFL website (http://journeyplanner.tfl.gov.uk/) to plan your route.
Ground rules:
• This is a social networking event - This is the place to have a nice chat over a drink, meet new people and exchange ideas. If you're coming to sell or pitch your business, dish out flyers or business cards, this isn't the event for you. Likewise, this isn't a dating event either.
Learn to Unicycle and play Unicycle Hockey
Discover your ability to unicycle in a no-pressure friendly environment where you will (literally) have someone to lean on. Learn all the secret tips and hints and get up and rolling in no time!
Anyone can learn to ride the unicycle and to play unicycle hockey. We have unicycles for you to use and play with, but please let us know in advance so we can ensure we have these available. Just be willing to have a go with a friendly bunch of varying abilities.
Costs:
£0 until you can unicycle a length of the hall, unassisted
£15 for adults
£5 for concessions (students, retired, between jobs etc)
Summer Drinks
Fellow Systematic Traders, we hope your trading fares well! Let us meet for summer drinks.
Please join us anytime from 7pm onwards on Thursday 18th June at our 'classic' venue: The Banker, no preparation required, just turn up and talk trading ... directions for those who don't know our usual "Arch" area are at the bottom of this message. All levels of experience are welcome. As always please keep your RSVPs up to date so that we can plan things accordingly.
I'd really like to forge a larger organisational team and draw more on members' talents in running this meetup. Then we can have bigger events with more networking, and possibly include pitch sessions and online talks. So do let me know if you can contribute, even in small ways such as taking photos during events.
Best wishes from the LST
***
PS - Directions to the Arch area within The Banker:
Walk into the pub and towards the bar, which will have bartenders in front and to the left. To the right you should see some steps to more private areas. Go up the first set of these and slightly to the left, to reach the "Arch" area. If in doubt, ask a bartender for the area called "Arch 1" / reserved for Nikhil Shenai.

**❗ Please only RSVP if you're 100% sure you can attend. As this is a restaurant booking, we'd like to avoid holding seats that may remain empty.**
Hi lovely people! 👋
No walking this time 🤭
We'll have a table booked at this cosy little Uzbek restaurant and enjoy an evening of good food and conversation.
For a while now we've been thinking about introducing an International Food Tasting series. Once a month (alongside our regular bakery crawls and walking meetups), we'll be exploring a different cuisine and discovering flavours from around the world — no plane ticket required ✈️
This time we're starting with Uzbek cuisine 🇺🇿
Often described as one of Central Asia's best-kept culinary secrets, Uzbek food combines influences from East and West to create rich, aromatic and incredibly comforting dishes. Expect *freshly* baked bread, flavourful rice dishes, grilled meats, warming soups and a culture where food is at the heart of bringing people together 🍵✨
🍽 **Group size:** 12 people maximum
📖 **Menu**: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/RUcnjYYaTth1GRmw7](https://maps.app.goo.gl/RUcnjYYaTth1GRmw7)
🟢 A great chance to meet new people, enjoy something different, and share a meal together.
See you there!
Any questions? Feel free to DM me 😊

No ID is required for the restaurant. If anyone decides to continue to another venue afterwards, some places serving alcohol may ask for ID.
Please mind your personal belongings and social behaviour — the organiser accepts no liability. Thank you 😊

London Society WALK - Greenpark
Have you ever wanted to be immersed within either the city or nature in the form of a walk and socialise at the same time? If so, this may be the right walk for you.
Welcome to another one of the WALK events where you have the opportunity to explore all the scenic routes I’ll execute whether there’s nature within, whether we get immersed within the city and feel great about yourself.
With this particular walk, we will be walking through Green park. During this walk, you get immersed within nature and familiar with the park itself but most importantly, you have the opportunity to feel healthy and stress free after this walk and possibly the opportunity to form friendships.
After this walk, we will be heading to ‘Venchi’ for
Ice cream and chocolates if you wish. ‘Venchi’ began over 145 years ago through the experimentation of chocolate and over the years, they’ve not expanded on their creativity with gelato too but also share their creations in over 70 countries. It feels like an elegant version of ‘Charlie and the chocolate factory’. To learn more, check them out at https://uk.venchi.com
My fellow explorers, if you enjoyed the event, I’m more than happy to accept any donations which of course are optional but will go a long way to help me unlock and deliver even more exciting and engaging events and resources: https://www.paypal.me/calvinjoy
