EXPAT BLOG party - 16/10

Last months meetup was good fun, so it's probably about time to do it again.

I'm proposing that we meet up in a pub somewhere on Saturday 16th October.

We should have a think about the venue, as it was a bit loud to converse last time, and some people couldn't find the group. Any suggestions.

Any questions, ideas, or just to say you are or aren't coming - post it in here.

UPDATE:

We will be meeting at Cafè del teatre o teatreneu, the address is torrijas 41, which is in Gracia on the corner of perla and torrijas, from 8pm onwards.

So I missed the last one 'cos I completely forgot all about it. And now this one coincides with my first trip back to London... Grrr!

One day I'll meet yous guys...

Count me in. Anywhere is fine by me!

I'm there :)

discussion sticked ;)

What about a place in Gràcia???
Cafè del teatre o teatreneu... i could go and ask to check if we could stay there...

Sounds like a good plan to me.

Ok ! This time I'll be there for sure !
Cafè del teatre is like 20m from my place, sounds good to me :)

Great, it's right down the street from my place :)

Hello

I get to Barcelona on the 15th of October so that's great. Looking forward to meeting you all. I shall be there :-)

Good man John.... definitely time to organise another one.  The 16th should suit me too.

I'll be there too. Like the sound of the venue.

El cafè del teatre is in carrer Torrijos, is the street that leads to Plaça de la Virreina, parallel to Verdi.
Ciao a tutti!

Laura, if you could go and check it would be great. It sounds like a good place to meet up, and a lot of people seem to live in Gracia.

Shame you can't make it though!

We will try and come along again. I need to speak English with a native again and soon......before I go mad!!!!

Hi Grace, you're a bit :offtopic: on this discussion. Would you mind starting your own discussion on the forums of these countries? It will enable accurate responses to your message :)
Cheers

hi all! can i be your new friend ?? lol

Hi!
Just arrived last week and would love to meet you all! see you there!

Hey everyone - I'm new to this website and you all seem like a friendly and normal enough bunch :)

I actually signed up because I am looking or an apartment to move into in November so if anyone knows of anything I'd be grateful!

I have been in Barca since June 09 but am always looking to meet new and interesting people!

I'll see you there!

hiya, was in gracia district this morning and came across the bar by chance.  so popped in and asked them to reserve a space for us for saturday which will be on the left as you walk in (the bar isnt big) from 8pm.  it is on the corner of monsenny street/torrijas.  i'll get there for 8pm as am singing in the choir next day in a church service so can't have a late night.  see you then

Hi Diddly6969, i went yesterday night but they were closing... I wanted to go tomorrow again, thanks a lot!
I'm sorry i won't be coming on saturday, i'll try to pass at least for 10min, but i'm pretty bussy right now...
Thanks again

Great! I'll update the original post with the time and location.

We should also be there at 8 or slightly after.

Hey all :) I'm new here and I really want to meet you guys so see you on saturday! ;)Hope I'll find the place :DD

Fontana station it is!!

fontana station has benches just outside as you come out.  to get to the bar turn left out of fontana station then left onto carrer asturies keep going straight up to plaza de la virriena then right into torrijos and its a little further down.  i was wrong and that it is not on the corner of monsenny as this goes into calle perla oops.

see you there folks

So, what is it on the corner of - if someone can let me know, I'll update the original post. Thanks.
