What a load of tripe!

Sorry for the long silence - however the flu is now past and things are kicking off again. Like Conversation classes. We have started two in our community room so people who are neighbours can all meet downstairs and practice speaking English together. So far we have 12 people over two evenings with more to come. However... as the classes are free they want to treat us to give something back for a free lesson. They took us out for a beer after class and the complimentary "tapas" turned out to be the only thing I don't like - tripe. (Ah OK, I don't like spoots either.) I managed to avoid it but Les had already made a stab... keep swallowing Les! However it is great that so many people are coming and we are humbled that for most of our neighbours they have never even spoken before despite living in the same block for 22 years!
