Link for Pub Meet

At Online ARC we like to let out hair down regularly and due to distance and the pandemic we've setup our own Virtual Pub nights. You can choose to drink alcoholic (beer, wine, cocktails, spirits, etc) or non alcoholic drinks (tea, coffee, hot chocolate, fizzy drinks, etc) during the event.

You are invited to The Rubber Duck Pub (Virtual) on the 1st and 3rd Saturday each month from 8pm until late.

Links will be supplied in Discord #the-rubber-duck-pub channel for Zoom. Pub nights are not usually recorded.

Whilst we try to explain what the pub night is like, it's best to visit and see what Random we get up to.

• Hosted virtually on Zoom
• Chill out, talk radio, talk about anything
• A random amount of spamming in #the-rubber-duck-pub
• We use Sync Tube as a juke box. Feel free to add music to it. Attendees often find new music to listen to
• Random games including word bingo
• A pretty laid back group
• Bit like a club meet up but less cliquey. We love and welcome everyone
• Before 10pm SFW after well we can not promises it will not be.
• Hosted normally on Saturday 8pm but link can be posted before hand if you want to get technical with OBS.
