Vegan London, Part Three

[Gwydion]

Vegan drinks coming to London! (http://www.quarrygirl.com/2011/09/24/vegan-drinks-coming-to-london-this-week/)

This week, Thursday 29th @ Tibits

There are links all over the interwebz for this, but Quarrygirls blog is pretty. And nommy.

So are you coming?

[rainbow]

Oh, I so would have been there! But I have a family commitment I really can't get out of. :( Next time! Do it again soon so I can come! :)

[Gwydion]

I shal try my best to infiltrate and ensure.

Hope you have a good time @ the family do :)

[rainbow]

Thank you :) but I shall be with you in spirit!
On the plus side, my Mum will be making me the most awesome honeycake* ever, so fun will still be had!

* Yes, a vegan "honey" cake (without honey obviously) - sooooooo yummy

[Gwydion]

:eek: Yowza, sounds intense! Will she part with the recipe that you in turn can part with us? ;)

[rainbow]

PM me if you want the recipe! :p

[Gwydion]

Well, I am totally hopeless when it comes to most things - especially balking. But perhaps I can use it as some sort of vegan trading card. :tongue_ani:

[harpy]

Damn, can't make it either. Hope they do it again. Please let us know how it goes, Gwydion. Thanks for the heads-up.

[rainbow]

Right, we definitely need to organise something else then. Harpy, would love to meet you one of these days!

[harpy]

Yes, that would be great, Rainbow. Am not very good at getting to things on the spur of the moment but if we fix it up a week or two ahead I could.

[Gwydion]

^ Hope you both had fun at your respective do's :)

Vegan drinks was excellent! Great turnout, really inspiring to see that amount of happy, smiling, sociable vegans all in one place together - chewing the (veggie) fat. Congrats to the organiser/s.

Now one for the singletons:

At last, the Vegetarian and Vegan Speed-dating Session is here! Tibits playing host once again, which should work perfectly as the setting.

Tuesday 1st November @ 6PM - all further details and where to RSVP can be found here:

Manly Males: http://www.meetup.com/vegetarian-419/events/36157222/

Lovely Ladies: http://www.meetup.com/vegetarian-419/events/36156732/

Should be another good turnout :)

London Vegan Drinks happening again - Oct 20th

http://fatgayvegan.com/london-vegan-drinks/

Looks like it is going to be a monthly occurrence. Hope so, last one was a blast!

[rainbow]

Ooh, splendid. I am not (at all) single so will have to give the speed dating a miss, fun as it sounds (where were these things 13 years ago, hmm?). But vegan drinks sounds great! Only proviso is that a family member with a health scare will (hopefully) get their test results that day - if it's bad news then I am needed elsewhere. So now an extra reason to hope for good news!

[Gwydion]

Tsk tsk Rainbow - don't seem to recall bumping into you tonight? ;)

Jokes aside, hope it wasn't bad news family wise!

[rainbow]

Oh god! I'm so sorry! I completely forgot! :o Too many other things on my mind (though thankfully news wasn't too bad) and was working late in the office. Oops. Tell you what though. I'm thinking of going to the pot luck on 2 November and bringing some of my cakes! :D Any takers? (Any requests?)

[harpy]

I didn't forget but I've been in a nose-to-grindstone situation, sigh. ETA was it good, Gwydion?

[Gwydion]

Any takers? (Any requests?)

Sure. If you can make a cake for us, I'll see you there ;-p

Glad to hear the skip wasn't due to family issues!

Harpsickle, would have been great to see you! Perhaps the next one or sometime soon? You still need to teach me how to be all proper like at the Opera.

Yes, was another good'n :)

[harpy]

All you need to do to enjoy the opera is turn up to one, Gwydikins!

Seriously, anything goes these days. There was even a couple eating their dinner next to me in the concluding minutes of The Passenger (a tragedy about people in a concentration camp). Mind you I thought they might get attacked by other members of the audience.

[Gwydion]

:surprised_ani:

Cool, I may bring along a big box of cinema type popcorn then. Flick it at people when I can't eat anymore :p

[harpy]

It's not encouraged, but you might get away with it as long as you don't take any photographs in the auditorium, which seems to be the last taboo.

[Gwydion]

^ Haha, yes - experienced just that! No go, even when the orchestra are just setting up.

Anyway....

Not to be forgetting Animal Aid's annual X-Mas fayre.

December 4th, usual venue.

Slinky Linky (http://www.animalaid.org.uk/h/n/NEWS/news_living//2521//)

See you there?

[rainbow]

^ I'll be there - never miss it. A few of my favourites couldn't come last year due to snow, so all the more reason to be there this time! As usual, I'll be in and out relatively early (have to work in the afternoon, booooooo). Anyone planning to be around before noon, let me know!

[Cat Stripes]

Hope this isn't out of place as I'm the organiser, cook and bottle washer of this meal.

There will be a one-off Underground Supper Club event in Ealing on the 3rd December. The Stripey Cat Supper Club (http://stripedcatty.co.uk/?p=57) still has 7 places available at a contribution per head of £22.50 (or you can book with credit card via Wegottickets (http://www.wegottickets.com/event/139228), booking charge applies).

Hope some of you will be tempted to come along.

"candid photography" eh? does that mean nudes?

"candid photography" eh? does that mean nudes?

Would you like it to?

No, not nudes, but street photography, catching people when they're not posing.
