Do you live in or near Bath, UK? The MathsJam there is currently on hiatus, looking for a new organiser - but if you can commit to coming to the pub once a month, and sending an email the week before, maybe you can get it going again? Email bath@mathsjam.com if you're interested!

Don't forget that in December, MathsJams often meet a week earlier to avoid meeting too close to Christmas - check your local Jam at mathsjam.com to make sure!
