6th January. Spanish gathering at Culture Club

NOTE FOR YOUR DIARY - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 6.

Dear Friend of the Society,

On Dec. 9, 46 of us helped Lennon, the owner of CultureClub (map attached), celebrate the 5th anniversary of that establishment. It was a very enjoyable occasion, made more so by a delightful talk from Jessica about her back-packing adventures in various Central American countries. Thank you, Jessica, for the work you put in to prepare for the talk and for "speaking from the heart". We all enjoyed it.

Our next Get Together will, because of Christmas time commitments, be in a month's time, on the 6th of January. I will be returning from Colombia only a few days before and could be suffering serious jet-lag, which will result in the usual reminder e-mail being later than usual (or even non-existent), so please make a note in your 2010 calendar or diary NOW.

Veronica has kindly offered to give a talk about her trip to Bhutan. Her previous talk was most enjoyable - please support her.

Thank you for all the support and good friendship given in 2009. Let's hope that during 2010 we can continue practising our Spanish in CultureClub - a warm and welcoming environment!

Special thanks go to the hispano-hablantes who always give us so much support as well as make the gatherings truly international.

Feliz navidad

Chris Stubbs.

9th December. Spanish gathering at Culture Club

Dear Friend of the Society,
This is to remind you that our next Get Together will take place in CultureClub (www.cultureclub.com.hk), 15 Elgin Street, Soho District, Central (map attached), this coming Wednesday, the 9th of December, from 7.00 p.m. onwards (early attendance appreciated).
Everyone with an interest in communicating in Spanish is welcome to come along. Jessica, who has recently been back-packing in Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Guatemala and Mexico, has kindly volunteered to share the story of some her adventures with us. Please give her your support.
As usual, drinks will be available at Happy Hour prices (after the first), and our supportive host, Lennon, will provide some tasty snacks "on the house".
Hope to see you there. I think you will find it to be an enjoyable social occasion, as well as a wonderful opportunity to practise your Spanish with a very friendly group of people.
Saludos,
Chris Stubbs
Member of the Society.
