I hereby declare next Sunday 22 April 2012 to be Craft & Chat at Ricky's afternoon.

It will be (loosely) between 12pm and 5pm, and people can show up for all or any part of that. The usual ground rules apply, bring anything you need and if you can manage to bring something nibbly to share that's good too (but absolutely not required).

If you are a art or craft type person and feel like bringing your art or craft to work on (or just to show people), that's cool. In the past the definition of "art or craft" has included electronics and people working on laptops, as well as more usual stuff like drawing, knitting, embroidery, etc - basically anything that won't interfere with other people is fine to bring. If you just want to bring yourself and sit around and chat that's fine. Turning up and sitting in the corner and not talking is also absolutely fine, as is taking yourself outside for a break from being with others - lots of us have social anxiety or related things and you won't be judged for it (you may have to let us know you don't want to be talked to, however).

If anybody has any access needs I haven't covered in the ground rules post, feel free to ask publicly or privately and I'll do my best to accommodate.

Feel free to contact me with any questions, or leave a comment on this post.

See you there!

Cheers,
Ricky

Whoops, sorry Ricky. That anon comment was mine (I can't see it, so I'm not sure if it even posted). Thought I was logged in!

Anyway, yes, I wish I could come and I'm sad I live so far away. :(

hey, your "craft" could be bartending. or brewing, or distilling. or making "cordials" by steeping interesting stuff (fruits, spices, herbs, etc.) in high-proof neutral grain spirits. offer samples until everyone's too sloshed to knit :-)

It's just after 7am and so far so good....planning to make it this afternoon, assuming that something doesn't happen.
No worries re fare - I'll do a bit'o'Nick-begging. He should be happy that I can get out to a social event. :-)
