Some things I learned quite early on:<br /><br />1) keep the group small<br />2) allow for the fact that at least half the first timers won't show (but will next month) and <br />3) make sure the venue doesn't serve alcohol, so first timers don'tMistress160 and solipsisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10784521863584363261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12499392.post-76025970212564063532011-03-27T18:53:54.935-04:002011-03-27T18:53:54.935-04:00I'm so glad the munches we attend are not like...I'm so glad the munches we attend are not like that. We are lucky to have a great local group. <br /><br />Not having a host that does intros seems to defeat the purpose entirely. <br />Hopefully your conversation and friendliness prevented the new guy from judging the lifestyle by the snobbery.viemoirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00524369095329944209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12499392.post-26606166026766151172011-03-27T14:18:51.851-04:002011-03-27T14:18:51.851-04:00That's very disappointing.That's very disappointing.annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10528972018222777551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12499392.post-418810795873415262011-03-26T22:22:59.004-04:002011-03-26T22:22:59.004-04:00personally, I haven't done a munch in years ju...personally, I haven't done a munch in years just because I am uncomfortable in a public venue with a bunch of tattooed, pierced, leather-clad BDSMers.
