Shrewsbury · Saturday 6th June 2026
A full day out. Five stops. Zero excuses.
"You have been formally summoned. Absence will be filed under Cowardice."
10:00 AM
We earn the day before we spend it. One hour of actual effort before five hours of eating, drinking and chess. Turn up looking like you've done this before. You haven't. That's fine.
Doors 12:20 · Starts ~12:50 · Out ~2:35
A24 at their most unhinged. Directed by the 21-year-old who made the viral short film that started it all. You will be genuinely unsettled. You will deny this at dinner.
Table at 3:30 PM
Shrewsbury's only specialist steak restaurant. Table is booked. The only decision you have to make is how you want it cooked. The answer is medium rare. It has always been medium rare.
Scenic Route · Between Ribeye and the Pub
The scenic route between steak and beer. Nature's palette cleanser. No agenda, no itinerary. Just fresh air and the strong possibility someone remembered rolling papers.
Drinks · Chess · Chaos
The Nag's Head for round one. House of Grain to close it out — cocktails, a chess board on every table, and the particular kind of ego that only survives on a birthday. Chess is at both. Bring your game.
The Formalities
Let us know you're in. Your seat at the steak house and your chess opponent both need to know.
Which bits are you doing?
See you there. Don't be late.
Don't be that person.
No RSVPs yet. Don't be last.
