Date for Your Diary - Wed. June 4 (7.15 onwards)


Dear Friend of the La Sociedad Hispanica,

Thanks first must go to Cristina who, despite technical difficulties, at yesterday's gathering gave a splendid talk about her impressions of Cuba. We had loads of questions and comments to make and it was wonderful, once again, to have someone whose first language isn't Spanish give such an impressive presentation. Well done and thank you.

Thanks should also go to Lennon, who provided the comfortable and relaxed location, as well as free snacks, in which 28 of us were able to practise our Spanish.

Our next Get Together will be on June 4 and anybody with an interest in conversing in Spanish, at whatever level, is invited to join us. If you are a student of Spanish it's a brilliant opportunity to try out what you have been learning in class. If you are a native speaker please come and support us in our efforts to master your wonderful language. As usual it will be held in CultureClub, 15 Elgin street, Soho District.

As yet, I have no speaker lined up, so if anybody would like to give a talk on a topic of their choice please get in touch.
