**Singles urban walking tour through the wilds of Royal park and the hipster heaven of Brunswick and Carlton** **Ages**: Open This is where singles and socialites slip into easy banter and deliciously aimless chatter. Meander, mingle, and flirt your way along Melbourne’s most charming inner‑city adventure walk—a playground for slow strides, quick chemistry, and whatever your heart feels like discovering 🥰 **### This event is waitlisted so the gender balance can be maintained. Before considering going on this event make sure you read the group rules including the creep code section at the end ###** **Couples** are welcome only if they’re very new (the kind where you’re still pretending you don’t stalk each other’s Instagram stories). **Married people**: this one isn’t for you. We’re keeping the energy light, open, and romantically unencumbered.This event will be waitlisted to help maintain a roughly balanced gender mix — not a perfect science, but enough to keep the social ecosystem feeling fair and fun. Join Eat Drink Dance Melbourne for a cheekyy social stroll that blends Melbourne’s best coffee, off-trail adventure, and optional refreshment into one glorious afternoon! My pick for apres "ski" entertainment and snacks is the Johnny Green rooftop bar atop the King and Godfrey building opposite Brunetti on Lygon St, but this will probably be busy so Brunetti is a safer bet. **🕜 Start Time: 11:00 AM Sharp**. 📍 Meeting Point: Brunetti Carlton, outdoor seating area. Get there early to grab a coffee. **Please arrive at 10.45 AM**, I won't wait for stragglers. **👟 Distance**: \~15km loop, relaxed pace, about 4km/hr. **🍺 Mid point**. Sydney Road. My favourite hipster cafe, Green Refectory, to recharge batteries with a great sponge cake, sit down or smoothie/coffee **🍕 End point**. Back at Lygon St. Brunetti, Options for Pizza/Gelati , vegan pub or Johnny Green rooftop bar. We’ll kick off with optional pre-walk coffees at Brunetti, get there early, Carlton's legendary upmarket coffee haunt with arguably the classiest brew in Melbourne. Then we’ll begin our long scenic ramble. Expect a playful, off-trail wander through the secret back lots of Royal Park Golf Course, past the Melbourne Zoo and the Netball centre and then through the lushest corners of Royal Park via the Royal Children's Hospital and their award winning kids (really a big adults) playground and some of the best views of the inner Melbourne skyline from the north. We’ll loop around Princes Hill running track, swing by the Carlton Football Ground, and return via leafy laneways to Lygon St for a well-earned refreshment—coffee, pint, or cocktail, your call. This is a social primer: meet new faces, stretch your legs, and share stories over drinks. Whether you're caffeinated, curious, or just craving connection, a single looking for a bit of company, this walk is your gateway to good vibes and spontaneous plans. 🎒 Bring water, comfy shoes preferably runners or hiking shoes, and your best banter. 🌦️ Weather permitting – check the forecast and dress accordingly. 💃 Optional: kick on with fellow walkers for beer, gelato, conversations, movies or dinner **Notes:** Look for a tall bloke, in the outdoor seating section of Brunetti, this is the host! Instructions on the day in the comments Bring your happy and friendly self, it'll be a relaxed walk Not a dawdle and not a run.Some of the route is along rough tracks and grass, other parts on well formed tracks or pavement . You'll be pleasantly surprised by this little adventure so close to the city. About a 4+ hour walk including civilised stopovers, we'll have short rests along the way. Feel free to enter and exit at any point, 💘 **Flirtation** **Guidelines** This is a social event, not a pressure cooker.Don’t be pushy about phone numbers — let the moment offer itself If the vibe is mutual, go for it Become a regular — I’ll be testing this format over 3–4 events You’ll likely see the same lovely humans again at future singles nights/events or Eat Drink Dance “open” events The goal is to build a small, recurring ecosystem where people feel comfortable, familiar, and relaxed enough to be themselves. **👥Waitlist** & **Gender** **Ratios** To keep things balanced and comfortable: Event capped at max 30 people to test interest, Generally guys admitted only after a woman registers (to maintain ratios) at my discretion until the format matures. If you become a regular I'm not so discriminating as long as you behave yourself. Women can be a little flaky (we love them anyway), so I may accept 1–2 extra **🧭The Creep Code** A refined social compass keeps the vibe safe, fun, and drama‑free. So: No married individuals or those already coupled up (generally) No Tinder Swindler‑style minglers **Guys: Please Take Special Note** Must have a clear face photo (no sunglasses, no blurry shadows, no “mysterious man in witness protection”) No wide shots taken from a distance where you can't be identified. No yacht/car/jet flexing — if your profile screams “crypto‑adjacent”, you will be gently declined. If you are declined, update your profile photo to something less creepy. **Girls**: No restrictions — privacy and safety first” **🌱Why This Event** **Exists** A few people have asked me to run something for singles, and Meetup is already full of solo attendees. Dating apps feel like a minefield, and IRL conversations tend to be and are rare and sometimes awkward. So this is an experiment — a soft‑launch into a more human, more organic way of meeting people for singles.. **Group Rules and Event Etiquette** **Fitness Requirements**: **Walking:** 3 to 4km/hr and 200m vertically in an hour. We usually go faster, but this is a minimum. Be mindful that if you don't have reasonable fitness, its not fair on the group to wait extended periods for you. I may ask you to exit the event if this is the case. **People who are very fast or very slow or prefer being by themselves** As a group activity I can't manage the group if it splits up, please consider going by yourself or joining a fast walkers/riders group or meeting minimum fitness requirements. **If people have time constraints** Best to give yourself some wiggle room, Things rarely go to time due to various factors especially in big groups. **+++VERY IMPORTANT+++** **People who do a No Show**. This is unfortunately too common for small group events, there may be people in a waitlist wanting to come on the event and is very inconsiderate. Remove yourself from the going list at least 24 hours before the event to give people on the waitlist an opportunity. **If you do a No Show you will be removed and blocked from the group**. If you remove yourself from the event an hour or two before the event (flaking) you may also be blocked and removed from the group, this is also unfair to people on the waitlist. Please communicate with me if you do not want to be blocked and removed from the group. **People who turn up without registering** This is a major security concern, **DO NOT DO THIS**.You will be asked to leave the event unless you have made arrangements with the organiser **PRIOR** to the event. **People who are late** You will be left behind and or removed and blocked from the group as a No Show. It is your responsibility to communicate with me if you think you will be late. It is up to you to catch up, usually this may not be possible.

🍕 **Topolino’s** **Singles Pizza Night** + **St** **Kilda** **After**‑**Dark** **Adventure** **Date**: Saturday 27 June **Time**: 6pm to 8pm (Pizza), optional nightlife voyage until late **Ages** 35–55 | Singles only | No married people | New couples maybe… if they’re very new **Cost**: $0 Lucky you. It's an experiment so I'm looking for beta testers 😀 Pizza and Drinks are on you. **Numbers**: 12 people, maybe more, depends on flaky people and no shows of course **Menu: [https://www.topolinos.com.au/](https://www.topolinos.com.au/)** 💫 **The** **Vibe** Think of this as a lightly flirty, gently mischievous IRL dating night — the kind where the pizza is hot, the banter is warm, and the chemistry is… well, that’s up to you. **Note**: This will be a light curated event, I won't pre organise anything so it will be a highly organic adventure, Expect some minor chaos. If Topolinos is busy we'll try another venue. Topolinos has a max of 12 people anyway without paying a ridiculous booking fee. But damn it's bloody good pizza. But if enough people are interested I'm sure we can sneakily get in a larger group if we split ourselves up and accidentally coalesce lol. I prefer doing things this way anyway and leaving some things to chance....serendipity is my middle name of course! **#####** **Just so you know** ================= Saying that I do have some basic rules to govern how this event operates, Curated chaos anyone???. **Note:** This event is waitlisted to allow an even mix of genders, there is a creep code and rules especially around no shows. Read on for how this works. Decisions are made at the discretion of the organiser. We’re taking over Topolino’s Pizza on Fitzroy Street, St Kilda’s iconic pre‑nightlife launchpad, for a cosy two‑hour dinner with 12 singles who know how to talk, laugh, and maybe flirt over a slice. Singles only. No married people. New couples allowed only if they still have that “are we… something?” energy. 🍕 6pm–8pm — Topolino’s Pizza Social A relaxed, social dinner with 12 self hand‑picked singles Flirty but friendly, cheeky but respectful Perfect for people who prefer IRL slow‑dating over app fatigue Expect conversation that flows easier than the house red Dress warm — it’s winter, but the vibe won’t be Waitlist is active to keep gender proportions balanced. Regulars get preference (you know who you are). Organiser discretion applies — always. **🙀🌙 8pm onwards —Choose** **Your** **Own** **St Kilda** **Adventure** For those who want to keep the night rolling, we’ll drift down Fitzroy Street like a charmingly disorganised flotilla of hopeful romantics. Possible ports of call: **The** **Espy** — iconic, loud, social, perfect for “accidental” shoulder brushes **The** **Vineyard** — mellow, intimate, ideal for deeper chats **Dogs** **Bar** — artsy, dimly lit, excellent for eye contact **Prince** **Bandroom** — for the brave, the nostalgic, and the 90s‑alt tragics (cover charge applies) Stay for one drink, stay for five, or stay until someone suggests karaoke — the night is yours. 💘 **Flirtation** **Guidelines** This is a social event, not a pressure cooker.Don’t be pushy about phone numbers — let the moment offer itself If the vibe is mutual, go for it Become a regular — I’ll be testing this format over 3–4 events You’ll likely see the same lovely humans again at future singles nights/events or Eat Drink Dance “open” events The goal is to build a small, recurring ecosystem where people feel comfortable, familiar, and relaxed enough to be themselves. **👥Waitlist & Gender Ratios** To keep things balanced and comfortable: Event capped at max 12 people to test interest unless I decide to be sneaky, Generally guys admitted only after a woman registers (to maintain ratios) at my discretion until the format matures. If you become a regular I'm not so discriminating as long as you behave yourself.

No yacht/car/jet flexing — if your profile screams “crypto‑adjacent”, you will be gently declined. If you are declined, update your profile photo to something less creepy and more classy. **Girls**: No restrictions — privacy and safety first” ⚠️ **SMALL EVENT EXPECTATIONS ⚠️** **👻** **No**‑**Shows** No‑shows block waitlisted people from attending and disrupt small-group events. Remove yourself at least 24 hours before the event. No‑shows will likely be removed and blocked from the group. Last‑minute cancellations (“flaking”) may also result in group removal, especially when there is a waitlist. 👀 **Attending** **Without** **Being** **on** **the** **Going** **List** This is a security issue. **Do** **NOT** **turn** **up** **unannounced**.

Our emphasis is on fun and enjoying each other’s company whilst supporting anyone who might need it. We each pay for our own food and drinks. This time, we’ll meet for dinner at Sons of Mary, a lovely place with a relaxed, elegant vibe. It’s a cosy spot with great service and a warm atmosphere — perfect for a friendly dinner and good conversations. We’d appreciate it if you could update your RSVP the day before so we can provide an exact headcount for the reservation. The table is booked under the name Elni. We hope to see you!
