Naturalmente, considerando il tempo metereologico inglese, c'e' sempre la possibilita' che sia debba spostare il picinic a venerdi', ma speriamo di no! ;-) Si prega di controllare il sabato mattina... Summer Italian Picnic meet -up near Gloucester Gate Parkway entrance. The closest tube station is Camden Town. Time to polish up your Italian vocabulary (including the Italians) and join us for one of our wonderful picnics. A reminder we are **not a beginners meet-up**, people come to speak in Italian not English, and are a members group https://www.meetup.com/italian-35/discussions/6755397671428696/chat/. After two meet-ups people need to pay or may find themselves removed from the group. The Picnic Bring food, drink and games to our summer picnic meet-up. The only rule- all drink must be Italian! Wine, beer, water ... whatever, as long as it's Italian. :-) If you want to eat bring food, if you want to drink bring something to drink but please bring something, it is a picnic. Obviously, given the British weather, it may be that we'll have to change the date on the Saturday morning but here is hoping! :-) Go to the Parkway (Gloucester Gate) entrance, turn left, walk around the wildlife area with the pond. We will be on the other side. Follow us on: Instagram London Italian Language Facebook at London Italian Language Meet-up Grazie, Simon

John Burns, the trade unionist once famously said of London’s river "Every drop is liquid history". In 1798 a newly formed body of police officers brought much needed law and order to that most historic of rivers. The Thames River Police was the first policing body ever to be set up. Its sole objective was the prevention and detection of crime on the Thames and it was to become the forerunner of many other police forces throughout the world. **Join us for a rare entrance into this museum as part of the ‘Wapping Shindig’ community event run by the Turks Head Charity. (Website under construction).** This small museum located at Wapping police station, which for more than two centuries has been the headquarters of the River Police. The museum is housed in the old carpenters workshop and is administered by the Thames Police Association. It gives an insight into the history of the policing of the River Thames. **Read more here: Review from Wharf Life - [here](https://wharf-life.com/interviews/thames-river-police-museum-is-a-hidden-gem-in-wapping/)** **MEET DETAILS:** **FROM 1.15.pm : MEET AT Captain Kidd pub -** 108 Wapping High Street E1W 2NE **(optional) for a cuppa/ drink before we go in** **2pm: ENTER THE MUSEUM together.** Address: **Thames Police Museum,** Wapping Police Station, Wapping High Street, Wapping, E1W 2NE London Self guided look around. This is a small ish museum, and is a rare opening to the public, but I’m hoping we’ll be ok and not too packed here. **3.30 /3.45 ish pm-Late: SOCIAL (optional)** We'll head back to the pub for a social chit chat over drinks. Address: Captain Kidd pub - 108 Wapping High Street E1W 2NE **TICKETS:** **The Museum is free, but we are limiting our group size. Often with free events like this (even with a rare entrance), we find the churn of people through the waitlist can be large, so please go keep your meetup alerts on in a way that works for you, and keep it free in your diary even if you’re on the waitlist.** **GETTING THERE:** Their simple website even has a map!

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
