PART 1: CAFE AT OF ALL THE PEOPLE IN ALL THE WORLD 6.30 PM – 8PM (AE HARRIS Northwood Street)

PART 2 8PM TILL WHENEVER – QUEENS ARMS PUB CHARLOTTE STREET.

This time we are meeting in two places, a show and then a pub. From 6.30 pm we are all more than welcome to meet in the cafe that has been set up to accompany Of All the People in All The World - also known as the rice show. Stan’s Cafe theatre company will be delighted to waive the £2.50 entrance fee to the show for any Birmingham Bloggers. (map) Also in the cafe at 7pm Joanna Geary will be around to talk to folk about the first daytime meeting of Birmingham’s Social Media Cafe – which is next Friday.  The location for the bloggers meet is a little awkward to find just off St Paul’s Square so I’ve popped a picture below of what you might expect to find.

The 2nd venue is a pub, the Queen’s Arms on the corner of Charlotte Street and Newhall Street (map). I’ve chosen this because a number of people have asked for venues a bit more convenient for railway stations and although this is 5 to 10 minutes walk from New Street it is nearer than other parts of the J Quarter. See pic below:

See you there.

    Sorry and thanks. I’m trying to fine a balance between those who likes things informal, those who like a bit of structure and those who travel to come to the bloggers meets. Sometimes I’ll fail, sometimes I’ll almost get there. This time we’ll see.

    Two excellent venues, nice one. The Queens Arms do (or did) a free night of acoustic music every Saturday called, appropriately enough, Saturday Night At The Queens. They gave out free sausages on sticks and everything. I like that place.

    I quite fancy turning up for one of these meeting. Not too sure if I can get to this one though. Depends where I am!
