You are welcome to visit when ever you want. That being said we can't guarantee that anyone will be there other than during our [[Weekly_meetings| weekly Tuesday meeting]]. These meetings are social in nature (although hacking does occur) and open to all. If you want it there will be someone giving tours and introductions to the space. These meetings kick off around 6pm and finish late. | You are welcome to visit when ever you want.

The space is run by its members, and it's possible that no one will be there to let you in. There's also a chance anyone present will be too busy to give a tour or show you the ropes. In the past this has lead to people feeling lost and unwelcome, for this reason we highly encourage you come along to our Tuesday social night where there are proper introductions. | The space is run by its members, and it's possible that no one will be there to let you in.

Yes, once your standing order is received your name will be added to the list of paying subscribers and we'll add you to doorbot so you have access. You will only be added once your name is on the paid list and this can take a few days as standing orders can take a while to process. Once you've paid come along when someone else is in the space and hopefully they'll be able to show you how to add your card, obviously the best time to do this is on a Tuesday but if this is not possible check on IRC or the list. | Yes, once your standing order is received your name will be added to the list of paying subscribers and we'll add you to doorbot so you have access.
