So it's more like a sit-down to listen other people talk or is there still a place for meeting others in the crowd?
I went to the pub after and it turns into a slightly more one-on-one setting as only 30 people or so will go. I've been going for a year and a bit and it's definitely worth it.
After the talks there was a gathering in the pub around the corner, which I'd of loved to of gone to, but unfortunately the last train home was calling me.
The previous meetup was down the pub.
