hey there, I hope you're enjoying your Sunday. Mine was very sunny and family-oriented (a rarity these days).
Anyway, I'd said I'd come back to post about the English conversation group I wanted to try out as a way to make myself accountable. Well, I went last week and it was pleasant. No overwhelming awkwardness.
There were fewer people than I'd expected, and more guys, too. And my age group (I often end up with 40 somethings, I guess my tastes skew old-er). Not a bad thing in itself. It's very organic in that there is no set topic and things kind of flow -or don't- from one topic to the next. They have a great tea selection and a different patron buy biscuits for everyone each night.
I'll make sure I exit earlier next time (just because it makes for a slightly late evening if not), though. It's a skill I want to hone, anyway.
Oh, and I learnt that other places are offering the same activity, so I'll definitely investigate.
So, success!
