8 pm is good for me - where is it tho?

hi all...as a new member to this board i am amazed at the camaderie...as mentioned previously i will be in madrid for school during your gathering time...how wonderful that a large group is planning to meet... i so look forward to meeting all of you..sounds fantastic

crap, I just noticed that the sixth is a sunday?
That may be bad because people have to work on Monday and I know my friends and I are leaving on the 7th in the AM.
Any problems with the 5th?

Hi! I'm new to the board and you all sound like so much fun! My husband and I are going on a package tour as our first visit to Spain, but we will be in Madrid for the 5th and at the end of the tour 13th. If you guys are doing something on the 5th we'd love to join you. Let me know ok?
Thanks!
Suzy

Girlshark and Hubby are in.
Just keep posted to the board..3 months go by quick and everyone with a love for
Madrid,cervesa,vino, and fun are welcome.
bienvenida a fiesta.
(don't make fun of my spanish)


Chrissiij:
I know if we change it to the 5th it may be difficult for you to make it on time but as the Marines say, "we leave no one behind" so maybe we should move the party back to 9:30PM.

Okay with the rest of the crew?

PIMSTER! It was great having lunch with you yesterday! Since we are working across the street from each other, we´ll have to do it more often!

Yes gang, count me in for October´s gathering. Joe, are you the keeper of the list?

Sangria at Maceira?? ooohhh..could be a dangerous night! Pim were you talking about Raquel? The one who steals hearts??!! jejejeje. I haven´t been to Viva Madrid in something like 15 years would love to go back to my old stomping grounds!

Welcome aboard Girlshark...Wilmington is not so far from Philly! Speaking of which...Asterault, you gonna join us for this one??!!

Saludos!

Groovy Chica!
We're up to 16 now.
My brother lives in Chestnut Hill. I may be going to Philly in a few weeks.

Madridman I got a beef...why am I junior member? I want 1st class citizenship in Madridman world.

Keep posting, I think the magic number is 35 posts before you get senior status.

Chestnut Hill is a beautiful area. If you want restaurant recommendations, let me know. There is a Spanish restaurant on South Street called Mallorca (Second and South). I wasn´t impressed by the food, but friends of mine have been back since and really enjoy it.

If you are feeling rather $$ try Pasión on 15th and Locust. Very good Argentinian beef!

9.30 is good for me. I will pray that my plane is not late!
Now, about those directions to the start point.........

Chica! The Wilmington to Philly trip isn't a long one, but not one I've made to often since getting out of college ; ). Next time I'll be in your area is in July for a soccer game (WOO-HOO!!). I'll be in Villanova, any good restaurants up there?
Anyway, where are we starting on the 5th? Are we all going to be wearing Madrid Man shirts or something? : )
