What's on in the City? - November 2013

Redhairedguy

Much like the previous What's on in the City? thread, the same principles apply.

Here you can notify others of things; events, happenings, concerts, good restaurants, table quizzes, fundraisers, classes, for the month and following months. Any events pertaining to later months will be carried over until the event is over.

A few rules, however;
You have to have 200 posts or more to post, or >1 years on boards.
Tell us a little about the event - posting a flyer will not do and will count as spam.
Once an event has been posted in this thread don't repost it - no bumping or reminding of events either.
Old events, too much chat, spam or topics that don't belong will be (re)moved.
