To Luis and other North County members:
This is fine with me. Unfortunately I can't attend. My only requests are: (1) the interested people agree on a time and place, and make all the arrangements, and (2) please don't schedule it at the same time as our North Park meeting, which is Monday night.

I wish I was able to join, but unfortunately for me, the location is not convenient. If you decide to move them to north county I would love to begin attending again!

If we can get 8 people to RSVP positively for this Monday, April 20, I will drive the 40 minutes round trip to be with you. Otherwise, should we change to only ONE meeting per month? This group is for you to improve your Portuguese; if you've lost interest, please let me know. Muito obrigado. Abraços, Tom
