Where we meet

Thursdays, 20:00

The MBA Lounge

VBS Community Stadium, Gander Green Lane, Sutton, Surrey SM1 2EY

The room was called the Times Square Hall until recently and some signs still say so. Come through the main entrance and follow the signs, or ask at the bar — someone will point you the right way.
