Meetup in Leeds!

Meetup now confirmed - any time after 5 pm at Veritas. We'll be in the raised dias section of the pub. ------ Two years ago, I posted this AskMefi question Tell me about living in Leeds and Cardiff and you were all so incredibly helpful and detailed in your responses. Well, we moved here in September and we absolutely love it here. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a meetup?

Board Games on Veteran's Day

Start time is 11 AM, but people come and leave as they please, and since we tend to play shorter games it's easy to work in if you come after the start time. [more inside]
