Thanks to our Fine Diner Melanie for highlighting this three-week-only menu at renowned pasta spot Tipo 00 for truffle season. Here’s what you need to know about the food: Price - $165pp (optional wine pairing $105) ***Menu*** Focaccia, ricotta, basil oil Bomboloni 'cacio & pepe', black garlic & truffle Beef carpaccio, tomato, Parmigiano Reggiano & truffle Stracciatella, pear agrodolce, marjoram, almond Risotto al tartufo Rabbit pappardelle, hazelnut, marjoram & truffle Braised greens, almond puree Tartufomisu, chocolate, coffee, truffle cream & truffle Rice pudding, rhubarb & pistachio Yum! I have booked for 5 Fine Diners to enjoy Tipo 00’s Truffle Menu at $165 per person for dinner from 6pm on Saturday 4 July. 

Join the waitlist to express interest. After the first day or so of posting, once I have names in the waitlist, I’ll send you a ‘Meetup Message’ to confirm you have a spot and how to pay. You’ll need to send me $50 to secure your place (equivalent to the cancellation fee - this will be deducted from your bill when we settle up). Once paid I’ll move you from the waitlist to ‘Attending’. As these are small group events, there are often more Fine Diners interested than there are seats available. My approach to hosting an event is to share seats around amongst members of the group in as fair a manner as I can, including mixing Fine Diners regulars with newcomers. Please be respectful if there are events when you miss out on a spot. I will always message you so you know if you have secured a seat or are still waitlisted in case a seat opens up. Please check that you don’t have your settings blocking messages; if I can’t contact you, I’ll have to move on to the next person. Also if you don’t respond to my message offering you a spot within 3 days, I’ll let you know that I’m offering the seat to another person on the waitlist. 

Bring on the truffle fun(gi)!

Ease into your Sunday with a calm walk, meaningful conversation, and brunch with new people.

It’s perfect if you want to meet new friends without the pressure of a big social event. You can come by yourself, bring an open mind, and let the conversation unfold. We’ll include a few simple BeSocial prompts to help break the ice and make it easier to get to know each other. Whether you’ve had a busy week, recently moved, or just want to build more real-life connection, this is a gentle way to reset and start the week feeling more connected. **Perfect for:** brunch lovers, Sunday walkers, people who prefer small groups, and anyone looking for genuine conversation.

🌿✨ **The** **Singles** **Only** **Middle‑Suburbs** **Meander** Fairfield → East Malvern via the Anniversary Trail Saturday 4th July, 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM **Ages: 30–55** | Singles only | No married or seperated people | New couples maybe… if they’re very new **Meet**: Outside the Fairfield railway station at 11 a.m for a 11.15 am start. On the side where the trains are moving away from the city. **Cost**: $0... yes nothing **💘The** **Vibe** A flirty, whimsical winter wander for singles only — the kind of gentle, slow‑burn social chemistry that happens when you mix crisp air, shared adventure, and a trail that practically invites conversation. **Please** ***note***: **This*** **event*** ***is*** **waitlisted**. I want a balanced gender mix, i.e even numbers of girls and guys. I have a creep code operating and event expectations around no shows, read on for how that works. **Couples** are welcome only if they’re very new (the kind where you’re still pretending you don’t stalk each other’s Instagram stories). **Married** **people**: this one isn’t for you. We’re keeping the energy light, open, and romantically unencumbered.This event will be waitlisted to help maintain a roughly balanced gender mix — not a perfect science, but enough to keep the social ecosystem feeling fair and fun. 🚶‍♀️👁️ **The** **Route** A deliciously meandering 15 km journey from Fairfield Railway Station to East Malvern Railway Station, following the Anniversary Trail — a path built for bicycles but secretly perfect for flirty winter walking. **Detail here**: [https://www.railtrails.org.au/trails/outer-circle-rail-trail/](https://www.railtrails.org.au/trails/outer-circle-rail-trail/) **Expect**: Leafy suburban pockets with “I could live here” energy Sweeping shared paths ideal for side‑by‑side banter Hidden corners of the middle suburbs that feel like your own private discovery A mid‑walk lunch stop at East Camberwell — warm food, warm hands, warmer conversations. This is also the half way point at around 8km, you can exit the walk at this point and catch. train etc back into the city We finish at a café/pub in East Malvern, where the group can thaw out, mingle, and see which conversations want to keep going. **🧣Winter** **Wisdom &** **What** **to** **Bring** - Comfortable walking shoes (your feet will thank you) - Snacks + water - Warm layers — it’s winter, and Melbourne weather loves drama - A playful, open attitude - A willingness to chat with strangers who ight not stay strangers **🚶‍♀️Fitness** **and** **etiquette** I like walking at a relaxed pace around 4+km/hr It's a long walk, so make sure you can keep up and can make the distance People who speed ahead aren't really welcome, find a speed walking group instead. If you are too slow and dawdle you might be asked to leave, same goes with inappropriate behaviour. Do not turn up un announced and not on the guest list, you will be asked to leave., Check ins will be performed. No shows will likely be removed from the group. If you can't make it take yourself off the going list 💘 **Flirtation** **Guidelines** This is a social event, not a pressure cooker.Don’t be pushy about phone numbers — let the moment offer itself If the vibe is mutual, go for it Become a regular — I’ll be testing this format over 3–4 events You’ll likely see the same lovely humans again at future singles nights/events or Eat Drink Dance “open” events The goal is to build a small, recurring ecosystem where people feel comfortable, familiar, and relaxed enough to be themselves. **👥Waitlist & Gender Ratios** To keep things balanced and comfortable: Event capped at max 30 people to test interest, Generally guys admitted only after a woman registers (to maintain ratios) at my discretion until the format matures. If you become a regular I'm not so discriminating as long as you behave yourself. Women can be a little flaky (we love them anyway), so I may accept 1–2 extra **🧭The Creep** **Code** A refined social compass keeps the vibe safe, fun, and drama‑free. So: No married/seperated individuals or those already coupled up (generally) No Tinder Swindler‑style minglers **Guys**: **Please Take Special Note** - Must have a clear face photo (no sunglasses, no blurry shadows, no “mysterious man in witness protection”) - No wide shots taken from a distance where you can't be identified. - No yacht/car/jet flexing — if your profile screams “crypto‑adjacent”, you will be gently declined. - If you are declined, update your profile photo to something less creepy. **Girls**: No restrictions — privacy and safety first” ⚠️ **SMAL EVENT EXPECTATIONS ⚠️** **⏰Late Arrivals** **The event starts on time.** - More than 15 minutes late without communication = No‑show - More than 30 minutes late (even with communication) = Not admitted = No Show - We do not endlessly wait at meeting points. If you’re late, you must find the group yourself. - Messages are not monitored after 30 minutes. - This protects the experience for people who arrive on time **👻 No‑Shows** No‑shows block waitlisted people from attending and disrupt small-group events. - Remove yourself at least 24 hours before the event. - No‑shows will likely be removed and blocked from the group. - Last‑minute cancellations (“flaking”) may also result in group removal, especially when there is a waitlist. 👀 **Attending** **Without** **Being** **on** **the** **Going** **List** - This is a security issue. - **Do** **NOT** **turn** **up** **unannounced**. - If you’re not on the Going list and haven’t arranged it with the organiser beforehand, you will be asked to leave. - Event check‑ins are performed. **🌱Why** **This** **Event** **Exists** A few people have asked me to run something for singles, and Meetup is already full of solo attendees. Dating apps feel like a minefield, and IRL conversations tend to be and are rare and sometimes awkward. So this is an experiment — a soft‑launch into a more human, more organic way of meeting people for singles..

Communication is everything in life You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024
