45+ Fun, Friends and Social

Tuesday is the new Thursday once a year when it’s Saint Patrick’s day.

Come and join us earlier in the week than usual at an old favourite Coast on Alberni. No packed out Irish pub venue serving warm beer with too much green chemical dye here, just Happy Hour prices food and drink at a tried and tested venue.

No forcing you to wear an ill fitting green glitter shedding hat from Dollerama but wearing anything green is always encouraged. Chanel your inner Leprechaun as much as you wish

Our first Happy Hour in this lovely new group was a success with 16 of you at Levant and many staying there a good hour after HH had finished. 6 of us finished the evening with a cocktail or two at the Bachaus lounge.

For those new to this event and/or this group let me copy and paste from previous event text to give you all the comfort you need if you are not too sure if you want to come along.

We are a very friendly and welcoming bunch so no need to be nervous about coming along for the first time. A few pointers for potential newbies

If this is the first time you’ve seen this event or you’ve always wanted to come but were a little hesitant to join us, we are very genuinely a group of easy going people who will ensure any newcomers are more than welcome and made to feel comfortable and at home as soon as you sit down. Talk as much or as little as you want. This isn’t about drinking solidly for 3 hours of happy hour bargain prices, just a gathering of lovely people who love good company and $6 glasses of wine and/or beer. Attending an event for the first time can be like your first day at a new school, standing on the edge of the playground waiting for eye contact. We will welcome you with open arms to come and join us on the swings or in the sandbox as soon as we meet you.

There are hardly any rules tor the Happy Hour event. Join coffee or drinks only. Join both. Turn up whenever you want. Wear whatever you want. Turn up with whomever you want. Latecomers are always welcomed, never judged. No 7 strikes and you’re out. It’s a weekday late afternoon event and life happens, just let me know if you can’t make it so we don’t have to save a seat for you. Bring a guest. Be a guest only and message me directly if you are not yet a member of the group but would like to try first before you buy. I remember the tentative terror of attending my first event!!

The only rule is please steer clear of any and all strong political views.

I, and all in the group, very much look forward to meeting and welcoming new people into what is really a lovely, comfortable and fun way to spend a Thursday afternoon.
