Fun Times

Have you ever wanted to try stand up? Learn some comedy techniques? Do you want to have a life changing experience which will dramatically change your confidence, make you funnier and more attractive? Or want to laugh a lot and have fun? This course is Ideal for wellbeing, confidence building and looking at life in a lighter way. Do not worry that you are not creative. Many comedy techniques require NO creativity at all. Also do not worry if you are not the loud expressive one in the group. Comedy is about your own personal view of the world not necessarily performance based expression. Discover your funny bone at our hugely popular comedy writing course with BBC-featured coach, TV actor and comedian **Fun, lively 5-week sit-down comedy course at the charming Chez Nous Café in Belsize Park.** Led by Bentley Browning: TV actor, comedian and professional David Cameron lookalike, seen on ITV’s *The Hack*. Other credits include *The Last Leg*, *The Alan Titchmarsh Show* and *Take Me Out*. This course is designed to help you discover your authentic comic voice - even if you’ve never written a joke or performed before. A relaxed venue, great coffee and cakes and plenty of laughs - the perfect setting to gently ease into comedy. **This is a writing-only course:** there’s no performing during the sessions, so you can focus on learning without pressure. All stage time is saved for the (optional) grand finale showcase at the legendary Washington Pub. **Over five weeks you’ll:** • Learn the basics of stand-up in a fun, supportive environment • Try simple, guided comedy writing exercises (no experience needed) • Discover your own style and what makes you funny • Get friendly, gentle, constructive feedback • Build confidence step by step, at your own pace • Work towards a relaxed, friendly showcase at the Washington Pub This isn’t just another class — it’s a unique experience with an accomplished comedy coach and quite possibly the most fun you’ll have on a Monday night. You’ll finish with your own material, a clearer sense of your comedic voice, and — if you choose to perform — the thrill of trying it out in front of a live audience. **Perfect for absolute beginners, curious first-timers and comedy fans.** More experienced comedians wanting a refresher are welcome too. **COURSE DETAILS** Dates: Mondays – 13 April, 20 April , 27 April, 4 May, 11 May Time: 7.00 – 8.45pm Venue: Chez Nous Café, 157 Haverstock Hill, London NW3 4QT Showcase: Sunday 24 May at The Washington Pub, Belsize Park **ONLY 10 PLACES AVAILABLE - ADVANCE BOOKING ESSENTIAL.** www.roxcomedy.com **Cost** The cost of this 5 week course with your own showcase gig is £165 ONLY!(Early Bird Price at moment will increase). We will need a £50 deposit to hold your place here: https://buy.stripe.com/7sIaF75ly91a4De7sB With remaining money to be paid on the day of the course. We only have so many slots for the course so RSVP and pay deposit to grab your spot I (Chris Murphy - organiser of the Meetp Group) have done a few times over the years (first did it 8 years ago), it really helped transform my life, confidence, start public speaking and is the most fun course i've ever done, so highly recommend :)! Hopefully see you there Chris

A second walk as the first filled up so quickly Join Tim on a walk through one of the most beautiful of London's parklands at the most beautiful time of year. Wanstead Park was once the grounds of one of the greatest houses in eighteenth century England, the home of the Tylney family who made their fortune from the East India Company. It was the second largest in England after Blenheim Palace and the grounds swept down to the River Roding. Its history was much older: a Roman villa was discovered here and a later manor house was once used as a prison for Mary, Queen of Scots. It was the scene of one of the great scandals of Regency England when Catherine Tylney-Long, the richest heiress in Britain, married a dissolute rake, a nephew of the Duke of Wellington. In ten years, he managed to spend her fortune and the house was demolished to pay off his debts. Today it remains a spectacularly beautiful park with one of the best displays of bluebells in London. There's a grade 1 listed Georgian church along the way along with Regency stables. The park is a haven for wildlife with kingfishers, owls, woodpeckers and teal all having been spotted. NB: The paths in the park may be a bit muddy and uneven. We meet at 10.45 in Joice Cafe, close to Wanstead tube station (Central Line), to start walking at 11 and we'll return to a pub close by a couple of hours later. My phone for emergencies is 07846899I56. Cost is £12,payable cash on the day, by card, by PayPal (timpotter53@gmail.com) or bank transfer (08-90-33, 07162019).

A Rabble session is 1 hour of fun and social team games. Each game disguises high-intensity intervals within the rules, giving you an effective, all-body workout without even realising it. We play a bunch of different games at each session (like British Bulldog, Capture the Flag, Dodgeball, Frisbee and many more), and every class is different. Sessions are open to all, no matter your sporting ability. Each game is explained before we start, so there's no need to have played any of the games before. Come solo or bring friends! And stay at the end for the social part! Who knew getting fit could be this fun? **HOW TO BOOK**: **It's essential that you book onto sessions via our website, using the link below**; due to restrictions on games and preparation times we cannot accept walk-ins, or late arrivals.

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/ **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.

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. 💛

**Karaoke Night**: Bring your glee club friends. Enjoy a flashback to your choir days. No chorus line. It's all you baby. Sing. Shout. Scream. Lip sync if you need to. But do show up and do have a good time. **On Freestyle night** \- just bring a bottle to share\. There is NO formal wine tasting like on other weeks\. Door charge is $10 \(cash or Venmo only please\)\. We may have some left over wines to clear out\! Glasses are provided\. Take Care\. See you there\. **Parking**: There are several public parking lots near the Alive614 hall. Please be careful to NOT park in private parking lots. They do tow. Check Google maps to scope out your space. Anyone who is early could easily find a parking space on the street nearby. I am told that the Chase parking lot is safe after hours. **Glasses**: …will be provided. Please note that after the wine tasting, the EMPTY glasses need to be returned to the boxes at the service table. Please do not make me hunt down your empty glass. Please be gentle, our glasses are fragile. Uh, they are made of glass! **Food**: You are welcome to bring a snack to share. It is not required. Most people do though. If no one brings anything, there will be nothing. **Code of Conduct**: Though mostly understood, it’s still worth mentioning. We don’t have rules per se, but we highly discourage the following topics of discussion because they are likely to incite anti-social responses - Sex, Politics, Religion. Please don’t mistake this as an attempt to limit your free speech rights but rather a guide to a place and time for appropriate discussions. **After the lights go out**: After the last sip of wine, when we clean up and turn the lights out, if you still haven’t had enough of us, it is typical for a group to get together and go to a local eatery for food and/or drinks or coffee. Again, We look forward to meeting new members and reuniting with old friends. Sincerely, ***Paul Uttermohlen***, **Red 1 Realty** *Your Hilliard Wine Club Host*
