The 15h (ET's) CG is held on Thursday May 24 at 7 p.m. at Lucky's.
Last Thursday we had a conversation for about an hour and then we watched the ice-hockey match against Sweden. And thrilling match it was. We were kept on the edge of our seats throughout the whole game and we were all very glad we could see our team win at the very end.

Last Thursday we started talking about holidays (yes, some lucky-ones have already had one) when suddenly ... out of the blue and completely unexpected two young girls showed up. We got down to talking and it turned out that one of them was a Chinese girl and the other was her Czech friend - her host here in the Czech Repubic. We had a great chat together, asking and answering questions, comparing both countries regarding their cultures, languages, histories etc.

I'm really glad that yet more new people are coming to see what the CG is like. It keeps the CG live and interesting. For example last time we praised Jana for being so brave to show up on her own despite feeling a bit nervous before coming. Apart from that I learned I'd been given a new nickname - Mr. Wet Hands :-)
Do you want to know why such a funny name? Well, you'd better come next time.

It might not appear to you but I learn quite a lot from these meetings, too. Perhaps not right there at the very spot, but I check some of the discussed topics afterwords and sometimes I find surpising things. For instance today I found out that I've been using wrong pronunciation of the word "rather". Well, not exactly wrong - I've been using the British pronunciation, which would be perfectly alright if I prefered the British English. However, as I normally use American accent, mixing apples and oranges is just improper.

At the last Thursday's (ET's) CG meeting we first had some catch up to do. You know, a standard chic-chat - what we had been doing, how everyone had been - stuff like that. I also gave a brief account of my first "teaching" lesson for those who weren't there on Tuesday. Then, we went on to discuss some travelling issues and later on we talked some business, too.

Last (ET's) CG we went for a virtual trip to the Netherlands, we discussed books and shared our future dreams and we also mentioned some grammar topics. There was a lot to talk about and as one of the regular participants showed up late we stayed even after pub's closing hour.

Thursday was a busy day at Lucky's. In the Czech Republic we call a Thursday before Easter " the Green Thursday" - Zelený čtvrtek and according to a tradition some pubs offer green beer. Unfortunately, I didn't manage to get a table reservation in advance and we were forced to squeeze into small space with other people. Although the place was kind of crowded, the atmosphere and the beer were pretty cool, so I guess it was pleasantly spent evening for everybody.

As some people, including me, weren't feeling very well last week, we decided to cancel the 7th (ET's) CG. I hope that you got over it as smoothly as I did and that you are ready for next (ET's) Conversation Group this Thursday. Looking forward to seeing you there.

After the wonderful Luxusní Víkend s Angličtinou II, which several members of (ET's) CG took part in, we are going to continue in practicing our speaking skills in a bit less intensive pace. Those, who weren't so lucky to be there, are welcome to show up at our regular Thursday's meeting. We'll be more than happy to share our experiences and describe all the fun we had.
