Let's meet up and speak English!
Following the popularity of the Friday afternoon class at Le Pain Quotidien in Notting Hill, this is a NEW, MORNING mini-group class for a maximum of 4 students. The numbers are small so that everyone gets lots of opportunity to speak and be corrected by a native British English speaker (me!)
We switch topics as the conversation flows, so that you can get used to talking about a variety of subjects, as you have to in everyday conversations with native speakers.
I really look forward to welcoming you to this mini-group and helping you with your English!
Showbiz Spotlight: Music, Theatre, Radio, Film, Media & TV Walkin Tour + Drinks
If you’re artistic and creative — or were always that kid who dreamed of working in exciting sexi professions of entertainment, fashion, music or the performing arts — then this will be right up your street!
An insider showbiz and entertainment walk led by someone who’s lived inside the industry - a radio music founder, presentator and club DJ, a former Correspondent for a global News Agency bigger than the BBC, an advertising / media agency exe, a red-carpet luxury fashion brand strategist and a failed boy band muscian (I still got the spiked hair!). So you can expect stories to be told with real passion, authenticity, personality and first hand knowledge...
This 90 mins backstage wander will take you straight through London’s creative arts & entertainment industry showbiz bloodstream. We’re talking live broadcasting nerve centres, global pop stars, legendary stages, Hollywood hideouts, iconic comedy clubs, ad agencies that won general elections (think Nigella Lawson), recording studios, fashion designers, radio powerhouses, and the secret corners where reputations are negotiated over overpriced cocktails — all set against the music soundtrack of a city that’s launched everything from Britpop to boybands to global club culture.
You’ll hear where the UK’s biggest radio stations broke chart‑toppers annd turned unknowns into global popstars, where stars of the film and stage made their name, how certain streets shaped entire genres, how comedians went from dingy basements to national treasures, and why London’s music scene has always been the city’s loudest, messiest, most influential creative engine in the world
This free tour will unapologetically appeal to:
* **Pop‑culture lovers** who treat celebrity interviews and album drops like sacred texts
* **Creatives & media people** who love a bit of insider sparkle and know the difference between a PR stunt and a genuine cultural moment
* **Entertainment Culture lovers** who collect fun facts from music, film, art and can name their favourite live performance of all time
* **People working in or have a passion for films, theatre, radio, music, comedy, TV, dance, media, advertising** (**e,g M&C Saatchi)**, **performing arts** and everything in between
* Anyone craving something different and creative yet authentic, fun with just the right amount of chaos
Expect a crowd that gets excited about the things normal people pretend not to care about — iconic ad campaigns, legendary performances, scandalous headlines, radio gossip, film magic, music history, and the beautiful mess of how culture actually gets made.
You’ll walk, you’ll laugh, you’ll learn things you absolutely did not expect, and you’ll leave feeling like you’ve unlocked a secret level of London — the one where the stories, the scandals, and the soundtracks all collide

BETHNAL GREEN (East End) ...Another great guided walking tour with Barrie
Another of member Barrie's superb tours of our great city.
This time it's the east end and an area overshadowed by its more
illustrious neighbours Shoreditch and Whitechapel. but Bethnal Green
has its own surprises...join us and see
BETHNAL GREEN......
===
from slumland to hipster heartland
===
A famous flower market, the Kray twins and the greatest cafe in London
Sandwiched between the two of London's most trendy areas, Brick Lane and Shoreditch, it is easy to forget how much history there is around Bethnal Green. Naturally, most people are familiar with Bethnal Green as it features in all stories of the notorious Kray twins and our tour certainly includes the terrible duo in more than one story. But I doubt many people know that Bethnal Green was the home of the original social housing funded by the philanthropists of the day.
But that's not all, there's a great museum, a great sports hall and a great cafe all worthy of being considered as hidden gems in London. Throw in the world-famous flower market and the story of a terrible disaster you have a very interesting afternoon to come
This is a long walk and lasts around two hours fifteen minutes and will be illustrated by historic photographs and great stories from those days.
The cost is £14 cash payable to Barrie on the day but rsvp early as these tours often get sold out quickly.
Any questions or queries contact Barrie on 07860 911393
or at bazaway@aol.com
British Library Pre-Meetup [Before the 'Stowe' event]
Let's meet up at the British Library on 4 April BEFORE the Stowe School talk.
Chat with fellow fans and a few familiar faces.
The bar at the Pigott Theatre will open about 13:30, at which point we will plan to be in the adjacent bar area. Look for the table with The Beatles London book and the 'We All Stand Together' picture disc.
If you arrive earlier that that — before the Pigott Theatre opens, we'll likely be sitting in the courtyard outside. Look for the same book and record, and we'll move inside the theatre as soon as we can.
I'm looking forward to a brilliant discussion of the Stowe School performance, and meeting you and other fans.

Tour of Brothers Drake Meadery and mead/tea tasting
Join us for a tour of Brothers Drake Meadery in Grandview, hosted by the owner Oron Benary. He will explain the mead-making process and offer us generous samples of their fine meads.
Mead is basically wine that is made from honey instead of grapes. There are many different flavors that range from dry, semi-dry, semi-sweet, to sweet. They are best known for their Apple Pie Mead.
Oron has offered us a special price of 5.00 each person for the tour and tasting, which is normally 25.00 per person. I've taken the tour several times, and it's always enlightening and fun.
Rebecca will bring a tea that will pair well with the mead for a tea tasting afterwards.
Park anywhere around the building. Please avoid parking in front of the houses in the neighborhood behind the Meadery.
Please keep your RSVP current. Knowing how many will attend will help Brothers Drake plan accordingly to accommodate us.
