The 'public' events anyone can just turn up at (though they would appreciate if you could let me know ahead of time if you're coming, so they can anticipate numbers). The 'salon' events I can take a guest to, but I'm only allowed one, so definitely don't just turn up - DM me if you want to attend one.
 
Shame Bristol is a little far for me at least until I can drive, so maybe next year
