The Rose and Crown, Photographed by Ewan Munro

The next Rose and Crown meetup on 7th February is a “social” meaning no formality and maximum time for chat. If you want to get to know other libertarians, share a grand scheme, or ask a random sample of them the questions you are interested in, then this is the time.

The pub is open all day, but I know it helps put some parameters on things. The official start time is 7pm. Sometimes, regulars are sighted as early as 6pm. There is a room upstairs available between 8 and 9pm and we will have that until just before closing. So if crowded pubs are not your thing, turn up a little later: this event will get better as it goes on. Upon arriving, look out for a small huddle of people who are, well, just like you really. There might even be a sign with the logo on it, if I can find where I put that ream of card that feeds nicely through the printer.

The pub closes just after 11pm and there are usually people debating some issue or another until long after the landlord starts to drop hints, so basically you will have to decide when to leave. There is no formality that your exit will interupt, so just sneak off when you are ready. Very libertarian.
