Money

On our visit, we will explore the history of the Bank of England and what it does today. We will learn about why people started using paper money, and discover the secrets of why banknotes are so difficult to copy. We can test our strength by picking up a gold bar, and discover why the building is on top of one the world's largest stores of gold! As well as learning what the Bank of England does and how this affects us we can visit the Stock Office where we can see what the inside of the Bank of England would have looked like 200 hundred years ago. In their Modern Economy room, we can find out why there are 400,000 gold bars in the Bank of England’s underground vaults and travel through 300 years of history in our Early Years and Rotunda rooms.

**Back by popular demand - on 15th May, we’ll be kicking off your weekend with our latest Friday Night Bowling Social 🎳** Yep that's right... we'll be heading back to one of the best value activities in the whole of London, Duckpin Bowling at Brewdog in Waterloo for another evening of bowling and social drinks. If you've never heard of Duckpin Bowling, it is a variant of traditional bowling that's seen incredible growth of popularity over the last few years. The rules of the game are very similar to standard bowling, with bowlers trying to knock down pins in the fewest rolls over 10 frames. However, with lighter balls, shorter lanes and smaller pins, with Duckpin Bowling you'll need even more precision and skill to get a strike. **Best of all, it is one of the cheapest Bowling experiences in the whole of London at just £8.35pp ❤️** Places are limited though and will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis and so if you would like to join us for this, do RSVP as soon as possible! **\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-** **WHERE/WHEN** To start the night, we will be meeting nearby at the Thirsty Bear pub in Waterloo at 7:30pm to give you a chance to meet and with your fellow bowlers. However, we'd kindly ask that you arrive **no later than 8:10pm,** so that we can head over together in time for the experience. **Meet Point** \- Thirsty Bear\, 62 Stamford St\, London SE1 9LX \([https://goo.gl/maps/35TPL864JuAS1ev39)](https://goo.gl/maps/35TPL864JuAS1ev39) **Closest Tube stations**: Southwark (5 min walk), Waterloo (10 mins walk) **Start Time:** 7:30 PM **End Time:** 10:30 PM **\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-** **JOIN THE COMMUNITY** Set up in November 2021, the project was set up to help Londoners in their 20s and 30s meet, connect and hopefully build life-long friendships. To help make this happen, we also host all kinds of events from free social walks, games evenings, day trips, social events, activity nights to picnics.

NFT's are here to stay folks! This is a group for like minded people interested in understanding, leveraging, using, creating for, profiting from, trading too i suppose, NFT's.. everything around them, complexity, fear and exploits, best practices and more. **PLUS** This group will talk AI ART tools, techniques, artists, video, audio, prototypes and more in the AI assisted production space- ART specifically, but we can get into any aspect of some of the cooler things happening in AI in general.

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
