If you're of a skeptical or scientific mindset and enjoy good company and good beers, come and join us for our monthly Manchester Skeptics in the Pub Social. We'll be meeting in Sandbar, which is located very near to Oxford Road train station and only a 12-minute walk from Piccadilly.

It's a brilliant bar with plenty of great beers at a reasonable price. There will be no speaker at this event, just good company and interesting conversation.

If you’ve never been to a social before, then don’t worry. We’re a friendly bunch, and there's no skeptical test you need to pass or anything :)

Look for GMSS signs, probably A4 sized with GMSS and the jigsaw piece on it, and if you’ve never been before, then ask for Janis, Allan, Geoff, Rick, Alex or Gavin to get yourself introduced to a few friendly faces and settled in.

See? Lovely.

See you on Thursday, folks!

Given the unfortunate act of bus that has robbed us of a night in the promising new social home we explored before Christmas, The Bulls Head, we’ll be having our regular monthly social at The Waldorf on Thursday 26th January from 7-to-7.30pm onwards. The Waldorf is just a wee walk up and across from Piccadilly Station, around the corner from Piccadilly Gardens and very well serviced by public transport for buses, trams and trains. If you want to come by car, then parking isn’t a problem either!

Go to www.gmskeptics.org to find links to parking maps, journey planning and such!

If you’ve never been to a social before, then don’t worry. We’re a pretty friendly bunch unless you start talking about homoeopathy. Even then, there’ll probably be a few barbed comments, then someone wondering if you’re after a pint.

Please note- NEW VENUE!

If you're of a skeptical or scientific mindset and enjoy good company and good beers, come and join us for our monthly Manchester Skeptics in the Pub Social. We'll be meeting in The Bulls Head, which is located very near to Piccadilly train station (round the back where the taxis come out!) and a short walk from Piccadilly Gardens Bus station and tram.

It's a brilliant bar with plenty of great beers at a reasonable price. There will be no speaker at this event, just good company and interesting conversation.

Entry is free, and we'll be there from about 19:00 onwards, in the area which is slightly raised on the left of the door when you arrive at the pub. The pub also serves food etc.

It is also a good opportunity to offer any suggestions for speakers, or other Greater Manchester Skeptics ideas you may have. We hope to see you there!

Goodbye! if you haven't had the pleasure. All are welcome.
