Sharing experiences, building relationships, and having fun!

Come on, don’t be shy.... join us on the 21st of February at 6.15 pm for a unique chance to meet fellow translators and interpreters, relax and build new relationships. The event will be held at Westfield Shopping Centre, London W12 (Shepherd’s Bush), and it is organized as a get together, where participants pay for their own dinner and drinks.






Dear Colleagues,
I am very glad to inform you that I booked a nice but not expensive restaurant. It is the Gourmet Burger Kitchen and it is located at level 1 (Retail) of Westfield Shopping Centre, London W12 (Shepherd’s Bush).

Please find further information here http://uk.westfield.com/shop/stores/gourmetburgerkitchen/london?retailer=35564.
I do hope you like my choice.

We will meet at 6.15 pm just outside the restaurant.

For those of you who have not confirmed yet, please do so as soon as possible and no later than tomorrow 20th of February at 1pm.

For any problem or question, you can contact me anytime.

I am really looking forward to meeting you all.

See you on Friday!
Ciao,
Alessandra

Hi Alessandra, as soon as I saw that for a change the pow wow wouldn't be in that God-awful usual pub I signed up. Unfortunately I didn't see that it was a dinner. Any chance I can join you just for drinks, maybe later?
