Lovely to meet you Owen, and thank you everyone for making my first Oxford Sgwrs a good one. I understood more than I expected, though I probably looked slightly confused for a lot of it! Looking forward to seeing you all next week. And Iā€™ll try not to speak French in a moment of panic next time :rofl:

Did you? I didnā€™t hear that. You did really well. I hardly understood anything when I started coming. I failed to understand when someone asked what my name was. Lovely to meet you, and see you next time.

Yes, seven is particularly good. See you again soon.

Helo pawb - for next weekā€™s meetups donā€™t forget on Friday thereā€™s a another change of venue, this time to the Royal Blenheim:

  • Wednesday morning, 9 Oct from 10:30am in CafĆ© Bap, Abingdon Rd
  • Friday morning, 11 Oct from 12:00 in the The Royal Blenheim, corner St Ebbes/Pembroke St (easier to find than The Turf so you probably donā€™t need a map but thereā€™s one anyway below :slightly_smiling_face:)

ā€¦ and donā€™t forget to make a note of this :slightly_smiling_face:

Hwyl, John

PS See also Oxford Walks thread for suggested dates for October & November walks

A quick reminder about tomorrowā€™s 1030am meetup in Cafe Bap - hope you can make it! :slightly_smiling_face:

Iā€™m recording it (and itā€™s too stressful to watch live! :anguished:).
We can check the score though via the Cafe Bap wifi :slightly_smiling_face:

:santa: - yes, Nadolig/Christmas is peeping over the horizon and, remembering how successful was our Christmas lunch in Cafe Bap last year, maybe we should start thinking about organising another one this year? :grinning:
Soā€¦ assuming we can find a convenient date, would you be up for an Oxford SSiW/(DRyG Rhydychen??) Xmas lunch?
We can focus on when and where once we know how many, but Cafe Bap could be a good choice if we could fit everyone in - I think there were eleven of us last year!
Hwyl, John

Bethan, Sue and Chris gave the thumbs up on this at Cafe Bap today, but I guess I should tag the rest of you, @RichardBuck @cat-1 @rebecca @rachaelseculer-faber @jane-18 @mouselovinlady @thomasd @claireesau @ruth-connor @owen-mcknight just to make sure youā€™ve seen it :slightly_smiling_face: - and of course anyone else who might be interested
Hwyl, John
PS Re the Jesus College carol service, I should have mentioned that partners and children are also welcome :slightly_smiling_face:

Helo eto

So far nine of us have said theyā€™d like to come to CInio Nadolig :santa::grinning: Iā€™ve set up this Doodle poll covering all December up to Nadolig for you to indicate suitable/maybe dates: https://doodle.com/poll/xwabzprxdqgd9mus (click on ā€˜+ā€™ symbol to the right of ā€˜1 participantā€™ to add your name).

Itā€™s fairly straightforward to complete and you can make changes later, but do let me know if you have any problems or questions :slightly_smiling_face:

Hwyl, John

Donā€™t forget pawb that weā€™re trying The Royal Blenheim for this weekā€™s Friday 12:00 meetup :slightly_smiling_face:

Also, diolch Ruth, Sue and Bethan for completing the Cinio Nadolig Doodle poll - Iā€™d meant to tag everyone about this (see above for link) but forgot :roll_eyes: - so Iā€™d better do it now for the rest of you :slightly_smiling_face: @RichardBuck @cat-1 @rebecca @rachaelseculer-faber @jane-18 @mouselovinlady @thomasd @claireesau @owen-mcknight @chris-roberts

Hwyl, John
