Happy Hour

We want to hold more real world events on a regular basis, but don’t want to concentrate everything in one location, so we are going to hold an approximately monthly Ubuntu Hour at a pub in some part of the country. This way every couple of months everyone should be able to find a meetup that isn’t massively inconvenient to get to. If you think your part of the country is being neglected then join the #ubuntu-uk IRC channel and nominate a pub near you! Generally we will meet at 8PM unless otherwise noted (feel free to turn up earlier) and there should be someone making themselves fairly obvious and making an effort to look out for people arriving up to about 9PM, from then on proceedings are undefined, stay there, go for food, drift off home, try another pub, it’s up to you.

The list of venues proposed in approximate order is below, we will fill up with dates as we go along. All pubs will have wheelchair access to the bar and toilets or we will choose a different one. The next venue is highlighted in the list.
