Boats and Ropes

Summer's over for most of us, now is  time to get back  to our old routines,  including our monthly chat around a book and a beer.  The next date is listed below, and shortly I will be able to give you the dates for the whole year that will coincide (nearly) with the dates for our brand new film club.  What am I talking about?

The film club was initially Anne's idea ( or was it Jacques...), anyway, the idea is that five or six times during the year, an English language  film ( classic or modern, British, American et cetera...) would be shown here in the Mediathèque in Sanary, followed by a debate (in English) about the film.  

The films would always be shown on a Saturday afternoon and we already have a list of films which we're allowed to show. Further information will be posted here, watch this space!

Our Literature club would always be on a Friday and the following day the film club (a part from one exception), this keeps things nice and simple.

Now down to the nitty gritty, as we're so organized this year, wouldn't it be great to choose our five books for the season 2008/2009?  For our first meeting, I know we're all going to talk about our summer reads and that should be  that should be fun, but lets put our thinking caps with regards to the other books that we might all enjoy.   Maybe everyone could choose a couple of books, email to me and I'll print the titles out and we'll just do a lucky dip and the first five drawn would be the ones we'd read.
