Wave ya arms, beat ya clubs and don your loin clothes as this month we go with the new movie the Croods comes the prehistoric furs.

Saturday 13th April

Before 12pm - meet up at Manchester Piccadilly Train station

Please meet up with the group at the train station before 12pm (we don’t like waiting for stragglers). The group is outside platform 1 & 2 and near the large departure/arrival signs.

When in doubt, have someone’s mobile number

The community liaison Stuart Otterson is there to help and welcome all new attendees or those needing a helping hand in socialising.

After 12pm - head to Crunch on Canal Street

The group will wander over to Crunch, our host venue, the upstairs as usual will be just a fursuit changing area and cool off point. You’ll be greeted by Lone. If you have a suit you can ask him about the day’s suiting orientated activities, where changing areas are and when they are available.

At that point the day is yours to spend as you see fit. Go out with a group of your friends to the city centre, stay inside the venue, sit in the nearby gardens, head to the cinema and so forth.

If you have an activity you want to organise (e.g. trip to bowling alley, or seeing a film), let us know and we can post about it here and help you.

At around 1pm people will be splitting off to head for food. Some go to the nearby pizza take away, some head to the sushi restaurant, some head to the Arndale food court, this is your own choice.

Activity sessions at the back of Crunch

We will be continuing on the activity sessions with improvements and tweaks. We have organised different activities to entertain attendees should they feel lost with what to do at the meet and don’t have their own plans. We politely ask that attendees not participating to be mindful of not taking up seating space that participants want to use.

We are currently tweaking the times of when the activities begin, we will post the times on Wednesday and there will be leaflets in the venue.

3pm - Fursuit walk
Lone

If the weather is good a fursuit walk shall happen at 3pm. Fursuiters are advised to use common sense, change early before 3pm so you don’t get left behind and queue patiently to use the limited space designated as the changing room area.

Sunday 14th April

Sunday will be relaxed day, usual crawl about with be held by our trusted Stuart.
We will have Sunday lunch at The Bank pub situated near China Town. It is a relaxed setting with a good selection of drinks and food. Avoid tracky bottoms or clothes overly outlandish.
Later after 3pm we'll head off to check out Kyoto Lounge which is situated opposite Manchester Met University down Oxford Road. It will be a bit of a trek but we can take the bus if needed and I want to explore it because it is a gaming bar
