London Society TALK - Deep conversations
Have you ever wanted to gather together and talk about insightful topics which broadens your thinking and knowledge? If so, this may be the right event for you.
Welcome to the āDeep conversationsā event where you get the opportunity to share your views based on the topics that we may cover.
The last time this was executed, it not only went well but we managed to learn from one another which broadened our thinking.
With this particular event, the topics weāll discuss are:
* What do you think about literature and why is it so fascinating?
* The power of imagination
* Why are books sometimes better than the movies?
* Are there any genres you like?
* Name me a book that you read and enjoyed
* Would you recommend any authors and if so, who would you recommend and why?
We get so preoccupied with daily life that we hardly have a chance to sit back and think as well as discuss many topics in such depth. When was the last time you sat back and thought about anything in depth which opened your eyes to so many possibilities and broadened your thinking?
Now is your chance to share your views and learn from one another. By participating in this, you could broaden your ways of thinking, learn new lessons or even heal if you have your hidden struggles.
My fellow explorers, if you enjoyed the event, Iām more than happy to accept any donations which of course are optional but will go a long way to help me unlock and deliver even more exciting and engaging events and resources: https://www.paypal.me/calvinjoy

Shut Up & Write!Ā® LONDON / PECKHAM
**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! Weāve discovered that itās strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if itās 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 cafeās 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 \(The pizzas are fantastic\, and we write during happy hour \- two for one on cocktails\!\)
Sunday Clapham Common
***Please read the whole description before signing up.***
TF Clapham is a friendly environment of people looking to play casual, free football. We welcome all genders, ages(over 18), skill levels etc.. It doesn't matter if you are semi-pro or have never played a day in your life, everyone is welcome.
**PLEASE READ:**
Terrible football always has a wait list for Clapham. We have a lot of regulars who have been enjoying our group for years.
If you sign up and can not make it, you must drop out by 8pm Saturday. If you drop out later you will be taken off any games you sign up to play the next weekend.
We are strict on this rule as we like the games as even as possible plus someone else could have made it off the wait list.
You have to join the whatsapp group for the exact location. We play between the skate park and band stand.
**Set up:** Clapham is set us as one 11 aside game. We make 2 teams of 11(as evenly as possible skills wise) and play two 45 minute halves with a break in the middle.
**GAME RULES:**
1\. Rotate keeper every 10 minutes\. Everyone must go in
2\. No slide tackles\. 1 warning only\. This is due to it being casual and varied in skill level\.
3\. Be inclusive\. Pass to everyone and be positive\. Anyone who says anything rude to another player will be warned once and then asked to leave\.
We recommend you wear plastic studs(metal are not allowed) or AstroTurf boots. Shin pads are optional but most people don't wear them. We have colour bibs so please wear what you want in those regards.
Whatās app group where we share location, please add yourself:
