21 November, Spanish gathering.



Next Get Together - Wednesday 21 November


For the first time we had a Get Together on a Thursday (1st Nov.) and it was a resounding success, with 29 people attending, including "hispanohablantes" from Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico and Spain.. We were very grateful for their active support, especially Tony, who gave an interesting talk on '"El Día de Los Muertos", celebrated every Nov.1st in Mexico. A photo, also thanks to Tony, is attached.
In addition, the on-the-house snacks provided by Lennon, the owner of CultureClub, were very tasty and we thank him for the continual support he gives to our linguistic venture.
Next time, we are reverting to the normal Wednesday, as this is more convenient for Lennon. This will start at CultureClub, 15 Elgin Street, Soho District at 7.15 on Nov. 21st. (Map attached) The more people who arrive near the starting time the better, since a number of us have long journeys home, but of course you are all welcome whatever time you turn up.
Please remember that anyone who has an interest in chatting in Spanish is extremely welcome to attend. There is no fee and drinks are available at Happy Hour prices after the first drink. It's a great opportunity to practise spoken Spanish in Hong Kong - a place where opportunities to do this are generally rather limited.


Saludos,

Member of the Society.
