Friday

Hugh dressed for a freeform

All welcome, even if you are not ticket holders to join us for the Social Friday night: come see what Grand Tribunal all about! Unlike previous years we are meeting from 4pm at the Board n Bites board games café at Royal Well, Cheltenham where we have both inside and garden seating and there will be a bar, soft drinks and a number of food options available for purchase as well as dozens of board games we can play. --The café is lovely but unfortunately situated down a flight of stairs, so I am making enquiries about alternative access as we want our venues to be accessible to all. If access is an issue please let me know!
