Flying Solo

**No pressure. No plans. Just new friends ✨** Whether you’re visiting London for the first time, just arrived, or simply love meeting curious, open-minded people, this bi-weekly **Just Gutsy** meetup is an easy way to share stories, make friends, and explore the city together. **Who it’s for?** • Solo travelers • Expats & digital nomads • Locals who love meeting travelers **What to expect?** ✨ Relaxed, **self-led** gathering 🤝 Small group energy 🌍 Travel stories, tips & shared adventures 🍹 Grab a drink or snack if you like **How it works?** This is a self-led meetup, meaning I set it up for you but the magic happens between you. To make sure everyone finds each other smoothly, please follow these simple coordination steps: 1️⃣ **RSVP** Thoughtfully If you’re planning to come, tap “Going.” It helps others feel confident joining and builds momentum before the meetup. Even if you’re 80% sure, RSVP. If your plans change, please update your RSVP so others aren’t expecting your attendance. 2️⃣ **Confirm 2 Hours Before** (Essential) To ensure the meetup runs, please comment on this event page at least 2 hours before the start time: “Confirmed for today 😊” This allows everyone to see, ahead of time, who is actually coming. The meetup moves forward when at least 2 people confirm 2 hours before the event. If fewer than 2 confirmations are posted by then, attendance may be low that day. This avoids anyone showing up uncertain. 3️⃣ **Signal Your Arrival** When you arrive, comment on this event page: “Arrived” + where you’re sitting + what you’re wearing Example: “Arrived. Sitting outside near the entrance. Wearing a black t-shirt.” This ensures everyone can easily find each other. Recognition Tip Having a clear profile photo on Meetup is highly encouraged — it makes recognition effortless and helps the group form faster. **When & Where?** 📅 Day: Every Tuesday & Saturday 🕓 Time: 4:00 PM local time 📍 Meeting point: In front of Starbucks **Marble Arch.** **Arrive on time,** smaller groups make it easier to connect. **Why join Just Gutsy?** • Meet open-minded people who genuinely want to connect • Feel at home anywhere in the world • Be part of a growing global solo travel community • Early members get lifetime premium access to the future Just Gutsy app 🚀 Join here 👉 https://justgutsy.com/ WhatsApp: After attending, you’re welcome to join the London Just Gutsy WhatsApp group to stay connected and suggest spontaneous meetups: 👉 https://chat.whatsapp.com/KQbwperKYc7F0QvbWp1w9w **About Just Gutsy** **Just Gutsy** is a global community for solo travelers who are free spirited, love exploring the world believe that real connections make the best memories. Hi, I am Syrine, I started solo traveling in 2018 and it changed my life, from introvert to extrovert. Along the way, I loved meeting people, but also felt how hard it can be to find connection when traveling alone. I’m building Just Gutsy so no one has to feel alone on the road — and so anyone who’s still shy to take that first step has a welcoming place to start. 💛

Meet from 6pm, to start writing at 6.30, for 1 hour. We will be sitting on the side facing the river (turn right when you enter), by the big windows overlooking the bridge. The venue has free wifi and serves drinks (but not food). There are a few plug sockets but they're limited so come fully charged. There are a number of station within 10 minutes walk: Mansion House, Blackfriars, St. Pauls, Bank, Cannon St. *** Join us for some focused writing time. All writers and all experience levels are welcome and don’t worry, no one will see what you've written. This session is about getting your writing done and meeting other writers in your area. When you show up, say hello to everyone, grab a drink, and get your writing tools ready. Once you’re all settled, take some time to chat with your fellow writers. Once everyone’s arrived, I will lead quick introductions and then set the timer for our quiet and focused writing session. Afterward, we’ll have time to chat and get to know each other. We often talk about our successes and challenges as writers. If you don’t have time to stick around, no worries! **A note about the format** We don’t host critiques or readings. These events are a safe space for writers of all skill levels and genres to work on their craft, so no one will read or critique your writing.

High tech discussions at the edge of Bitcoin innovation **[TICKETS HERE](https://btcpay.btc.aw/apps/rvvVwGSSSiJ7UgtzjmBdxy1Uq6a/pos "https://btcpay.btc.aw/apps/rvvVwGSSSiJ7UgtzjmBdxy1Uq6a/pos")** Antoine Riard discusses Ark.

**UPDATE FOR FEB-APRIL 2026:** For February - end of April 2026 the host of this event will be away. It will still be happening every week, but will be a self-running group. If you are a regular - please welcome any newcomers and be prepared to set the 1 hour timer. If you are a newcomer, the group is usually easy to find (the table/s with notebooks and laptops), and the bar staff know where we are if you can't spot us first time. Happy writing! **\~** Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 18:00 on Wednesday afternoons/evenings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 18:00 - Quick introductions 18:15 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour 19:15 - The End: chat, take off, or keep writing OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 19:30. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled. If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you at the Peckham Pelican! What Should I Bring? Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons. **Other Important Details:** \- If you arrive and can't figure out who we are \(usually the table with a lot of laptops and notebooks\)\, feel free to ask the bar staff who will point you in the right direction\. \- Many of our participants found the event through other means\, so please don't be put off by a low attendance number on MeetUp\! \- The Pelican has some\, but not many\, charging points\, so make sure laptops are charged and perhaps bring a notebook just in case\. \- The WiFi is also very poor \(non\-existent\)\, but most have found that to be a good thing\. Make sure to download or turn on 'offline mode' if working on a computer\. \- Please thank our hosts by purchasing something \(The pizzas are fantastic\, and we write during happy hour \- two for one on cocktails\!\)

Antoine Riard is, among other things, a contributor to both Bitcoin Core and the Lightning Network. In this event, he will share his expertise and knowledge about Ark: a technology that aims to help address some of Bitcoin's known limitations at scale. He will share its benefits, tradeoffs and his opinions. Don't miss this event, hosted at Cyphermunk House!

✨ Представьте себе день, где история не просто оживает — она расцветает буквально на глазах, превращаясь в одно из самых ярких зрелищ Европы. Это путешествие переносет вас в иное измерение — в королевство цветов и вековых легенд. Вашим главным сокровищем станет замок 🏰 Arundel Castle — один из древнейших и прекраснейших замков Англии, находящийся в Западном Сассексе. По официальным данным, замок существует вот уже 10 веков! Однако есть свидетельства, что его история началась еще раньше. Поскольку в этих местах были найдены развалины римского периода, предполагается, что в самом начале X века Альфредом Великим здесь была построена крепость для защиты против викингов. В апреле здесь происходит магия: его величественные башни и строгие рвы становятся фоном для события мирового уровня — Фестиваля тюльпанов 💐, входящего в число самых впечатляющих садовых шоу Европы. Это не просто клумбы — это грандиозное искусство. Сотни тысяч тюльпанов, включая редчайшие исторические сорта, превращают территорию замка в живой калейдоскоп. Представьте себе: геометрические композиции, взрывающиеся фейерверками алых и фиолетовых оттенков, нежные пастельные реки, бегущие вдоль крепостных валов, и уникальные «чёрные» тюльпаны, контрастирующие с зелёным бархатом газонов. Садовники-художники создают здесь настоящие картины, где архитектура и природа ведут изысканный диалог. Погрузившись в эту феерию, вы затем откроете для себя интерьеры 🛋️ замка — мир рыцарских ⚔️ залов с гобеленами, великолепной библиотеки и личных покоев герцогов, где витает дух английской аристократии. После этого спектакля цвета и истории вы спуститесь в одноимённую деревню 🏡 Arundel — очаровательный уголок с пабами, антикварными лавками и видом на готический собор. Это идеальное место, чтобы насладиться традиционным обедом, ощущая неторопливый ритм жизни. А кульминацией дня станет встреча с шедевром индустриальной эпохи — виадуком 🌉 долины Уз (Ouse Valley Viaduct). Это сооружение поражает не меньше, чем замок: его элегантные кирпичные арки, тянущиеся на полкилометра, подобны римскому акведуку, вознесённому над зелёными лугами. Прогулка рядом с этим гигантом дарит ощущение, будто вы попали в картину эпохи романтизма, где мощь человеческого гения вписана в вечный пейзаж. Возвращение в Лондон будет наполнено яркими образами: вы увезёте с собой воспоминания о рыцарской крепости, утопающей в море лучших тюльпанов Европы, и о монументальном виадуке, парящем в весеннем небе.

Wine Not? is a women-only gathering before the Balancers Saturday social. Most attendees come solo, so it’s an easy and welcoming place to meet people and settle in before the night gets busier. London can make meeting new people feel awkward, especially if you're coming alone. This early social creates a comfortable environment where you can chat, laugh, and get to know a few friendly faces first. Expect a relaxed atmosphere, a few light games, and plenty of time to connect naturally. Around **8.30 pm the main Balancers social begins**, and the room fills as over **150 people usually join the night**. Wine Not? naturally flows into the rest of the evening, so you’re welcome to stay and enjoy the full experience. Coming solo is completely normal. Our hosts will be there to help everyone feel comfortable, included, and connected from the start. **Check out our past events here:** **[https://www.instagram.com/_balancers/](https://www.instagram.com/_balancers/)** **Want to stay in the loop?

...and speaking of breakthrough roles: who can forget the first time we saw Tom Cruise singing Bob Seeger in his underwear? Often considered an updated 1983 version of The Graduate, the movie sparkles with memorable lines and original music.

This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD
