Our coming events and a commercial space for rent

OK, I am getting excited about this one, we're hosting a wine tasting on Friday, October 16, at 7 PM at the common party room of Brava 28, where we had our pot-luck brunch a couple of months ago.

The wines will be from the Pizzorno, Marichal and Castillo Viejo wineries, which are excellent wines and not the most commonly available at the supermarkets. Usually our event's hosts, Tim and Amelie Plaehn, also bring along some reasonably priced bottles for those interested in purchasing any of the wines tasted.

In addition to the wines, there will be cheeses, crackers and empanadas so we don't all stumble out knackered.

The ticket will be 200 pesos per person. Because of the nature of the event, I will need positive confirmation from those planning on attending, at least three days before the 16th. The sooner the better. Please be nice and confirm as soon as possible and thus contribute to making my life easier.

Following this evening event, we're holding our regular third Monday meeting for October, which happens to be on the 19th, at 11 AM as usual, at Kitty's, a restaurant and cafe right inside the harbor. Should the weather be nice, their tables on the esplanade overlooking the boats are a delight, otherwise, we'll have enough room indoors.

These two events are close together but a) people are still arriving back from their warm winter destinations, and b) not everyone can manage either the AM or the PM times, so we offer a couple of diffferent options.

For November we're planning a pot-luck barbeque lunch at our place on Sunday, November 22nd, and we still haven't decided on the location of the third Monday meeting. One suggestion that sounded great was L'Auberge, which is both roomy, good for good or bad weather, and beautiful.

Lastly, we may be having a year-end pot-luck party at one of our member's homes, still to be confirmed, on the 19th of December.

On with the space for rent. It's a very conveniently located 40 m2 (400 square feet more or less) space overlooking Plaza Mexico, complete with bathroom and small kitchen, renting for US$700 per month, with no condo expenses. Please contact dorisher at gmail dot com if you're interested.
