Singles Social & Party in Shoreditch, Comp. Drink ! Happy Hour!
Host: Van
\*This event is a collaboration with other groups and social networks and it will be well attended
\*To attend this event you need to buy a ticket from
[https://www.fatsoma.com/e/p5ms0iml/singles-social-party-in-shoreditch-with-complimentary-drink-happy-hour-all-ages](https://www.fatsoma.com/e/p5ms0iml/singles-social-party-in-shoreditch-with-complimentary-drink-happy-hour-all-ages)
Single people mixing and mingling, partying and dancing in the heart of Shoreditch, while keeping their eyes open trying to spot that special one that will make their heart jump
Whether you are looking for a partner or just to meet and connect with other people who are at the same phase of life, this is the event for you!
You never know who you are going meet in this evening and that is the beauty of it! You may find a friend forever, a party buddy, a partner in crime or a partner in life!
Since this is a mix and mingle and not a speed dating there is no age
range- in a social pool everybody is welcome and you can choose to speak to whoever you fancy.
Connect with like minded people and open your social circle, enjoy
chatting about anything and everything, with those you like, for as long as you like
If you find somebody who you think you have a connection with, dare to
ask their contact details right then and there... like the old times ;)
Oh! and you don't need to ask the awkward question: 'so are you
single?' because they all will be!
You are very welcome to attend alone or with friends. We will be there
making introductions, helping break the ice,, and act as a glue in the group.
We have a reserved area/table where we can mix and mingle, so that
everybody can relax and feel comfortable and we get to know each other. and then we are going to move on the dance floor!
Simmons Shoreditch is a quirky cocktail bar bringing an off-
kilter addition to the streets of the East. Just off Shoreditch High Street, this gem is notorious for a late-night party or 5. Its eclectic playlist and beautifully bonkers interiors set it apart from its peers.
Famed for its rogue aesthetic, it really has it all. We're not joking. Bringing a new meaning to 'Everything but the kitchen sink,' this bar even has that. Its DJ plays from a built-in Kitchen Disco. Spinning disks that span decades with a playlist that's sure to keep you on the dancefloor until the early hours. Blaring neons, skull disco balls and
waltzer-style booths all add to the charm!
The program of the night is as follows :
7:00pm-9pm : Singles mixing and mingling
9pm: The music goes up and it is time for dancing.
Everyone arriving before 9pm receives a token for a complimentary
drink ( you can choose between beer, prosecco or non alcoholic)
Happy Hour till 9pm!
Dress code is smart/ elegant/ Smart Casual (smart dark jeans are fine but ripped jeans, sportswear, trainers/sportshoes and hats are not allowed).
For security reasons every guest must carry photographic ID with them (Driverโs License, European ID or Passport) independently of the age.

Making Gratitude a Habit
Counting your blessings, being thankful and appreciativeโฆ Sometimes, do you find it difficult to be grateful?
Even when things are tough, gratitude makes sense. Because gratitude is short for โgreat attitudeโ. It makes us happier and hopeful. It keeps you focused on what is there, instead of what isnโt, on whatโs right instead of whatโs wrong.
Join us to explore ways to cultivate an attitude of gratitude and practise more gratitude, especially in hard times.

F\*ck the Small Talk has travelled the world across Berlin, Mexico City, Melbourne, Lisbon, Medellin, Vienna, and now back to London for its 3rd year in a row! ๐
**๐ฆ WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?**
FTST is a **one-of-a-kind social experience** where strangers come together for an afternoon of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. Itโs also a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!
Join us for **games**, **talks**, and **connections** with **friends you havenโt met yet**. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you've been in London every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life, this is the place for you. ๐
**๐ HOW DOES IT WORK?**
We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. Youโll never have to speak in public if you donโt want to.
**๐ฃ NOTE**: We won't validate your payment unless you've been accepted! (which you most likely will โค๏ธ)

**๐ WHAT THEY SAY**
๐ฃ โThis is the kind of activity humanity needs every weekend. Thank you for all.โ - Sonya
๐ฃ โF\*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.โ - Monika
๐ฃ โI loved F\*ck the small talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!โ - Brenda
๐ฃ โLively, interesting, introspective, completely open, and no judgment. Everyone that joined was ready for great conversation and helped with different perspectives. So much fun! I can't wait for the next one! โ - Yaz

๐ค FAQ
**โข Can I come alone?**
Of course, in fact, we encourage it!
**โข Can I be late?**
Please don't! "Doors" open at 11:45am and we start at exactly 12:00pm! Late arrivals will disrupt the floooooooow.
**โข I signed up but never got an invite. Why?**
We usually get a high volume of sign-ups yet we like to keep it cozy & only invite around 25 people. We believe this is a good number to ensure an awesome experience, and weโve learned that itโs easier to build connections with smaller groups! Please try again next time if do not receive an invite - no hard feelings ๐
**โข Why do you charge?**
We value our time and put a lot of love, planning, and effort into creating & designing these experiences. ๐ This is our project/business and what we give to the world and we think everything should be a fair exchange! ๐ However, money should never be the reason for people not to attend. If you canโt afford it simply get in touch with us :)
**โข I'm digging this! Can I get involved somehow?**
Sure thing, send us a message!
**โข Can I bring my pet (llama)?**
100% yes (depends on the venue, ask us!)

From Web Forms to Web Components - Burton Smith
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
**Abstract**
Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively.
This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. Weโll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from serverโdriven controls, and why theyโre becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether youโre maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, youโll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standardsโbased way.
