UPDATE:
We are on Table 45. If you come in and follow the bar around to the left, we're in a slight alcove just next to the fruit machine.
Please come and join CK and NastyGunge for a splosh social on Saturday 19th March 2022 from around 3.30pm.
The location will be The Dragon Inn, Hurst Street, Birmingham, B5 4TD (that's UK West Midlands and not the USA).
We will provide an update on the day specifying exact location within the pub and we're hoping to have a can of MUSHY PEAS as our table mascot to identify us (although this is subject to change depending upon what we can find in Tesco that morning).
We're likely to go on into the evening and then head for food afterwards too. There are plenty of food options in the area so please do discuss this with us, especially if you have any dietary requirements.
You're all welcome to come along at any point and of course there is no pressure to drink alcohol at any point.
This is not a play event, there will be no actual sploshing of any kind. Please respect the venue and the organisers.
We expect the highest level of consent and respect from everyone attending.
Check people's pronouns, if you're not sure then ask. Don't be defensive when you're challenged or corrected, just learn from your error.
This is a social event and whilst it's great to meet other people, this is not explicitly a space to hook up. Do not put pressure on anyone to share their personal details like where they live, what their job is or their social media details.
It's ok to ask but be prepared to accept that other people may wish to protect their privacy.
If you have any problems during or after the event please can you let CK or NastyGunge know. We wish to create a safe and friendly environment. Consent violations and other abuses will be treated seriously.
We will not be requiring any Covid related proofs or checks but will probably put out some guidance later on how we can all keep each other safer.
I will also be heading to the Birmingham Bizarre Bazaar (BBB) the following day

Please feel free to message me here if you have any questions or need any more details. Also if you're turning up later just for food please get in touch as the timing of this is quite fluid.
For the benefit of yourself and the other guests, it would be appreciated if you would take a Lateral Flow Test before attending. If you have a positive result or are feeling unwell please consider giving this meet up a skip. There will be more gatherings in the future.
