So, we haven't had an expat meetup from this forum for a while (that actually happens and people come to), so let's have one!

We'll be meeting on the 11th November:

London Bar,  C/ Nou de la Rambla, 34

at about 8pm.

Anyone who fancies coming post in here, and if you have any questions post it here, or send me a message.

Hi JPOPE,

That sounds like a good plan, I have been here two weeks now and it would be really nice to meet some new people.

Count me in, see you there.

The bar has a second 'room' at the back, if there are going to be about ten of us or more I will go and ask them to keep that bit free for us.

Hi Everybody,

I was talking to a guy in my company and they are organizing with Sotavento an event at 10 pm on friday. There will be a buffet pica pica. I can get us for free to the event. I would need to know the number of people who want to go so I can put us on the list. is anybody interested?
Maybe go and have a drink and after that go to dancing? please send me a message if you want to go.

Hi Ed,

Not sure I understand, are you saying to meet up as planned at the London Bar, and then head over to Sotavento later?

If so, would we need to be there at 10, or could we turn up later, and how many people could you guestlist, as there are about 24 coming to the meetup so far (including a few who sent me private messages)?

Hi Jpope,

sorry can't make it this week; will be abroad, but I think we should definitly do this more often.

Adrian

Hi JPope,

Yes, the company Full size is part of the companies I work with. They are organizing a party this Friday at Sotavento. The party starts at 10 pm and there will be Pica pica to start with. After that is the dancing time. I can get entrance for those who want to go and friends, I just need to know how many will go. I have already on my list 23 people!

Concerning if it is possible to arrive later. It is possible, the only thing that would happen is that they wouldn't participate in the pica/pica. They told me that I can bring 70 people but I just need to advise them with time. So if people can confirm before tomorrow 3 pm, that would be perfect.

saludos,
Ed

hi!


I've been told it is really expensive!! does anyone know how much is a beer? I don't want to be cheated;


ta

Eva

JPope

Its not expensive.

They change prices at 9pm. Before 9 it is on the cheap side of average. After 9 it is just average. Best thing to do is buy a bottleof wine just before 9 :-)

Hi all!

As I am mediterranean and very kind of expressing yourself person, I HAVE TO SAY I felt really cosy, comfy and had great fun last night. All the people in the group was very nice and polite... I just missed so much my golden ages in beautiful England...

I hope to see you soon,

cheers,

Eva

Not bad, i remember we started in the London Bar drinking something, later we were eating in a resto, and... I remember something about smoking mariwana, a couple of girls dancing naked over the table... but just flashes. Really I cant remember so good, when I woke up I was in the beach alone.... :lol:
