Become a member of IRISH CLUB MARBELLA!

For some time now we have observed amongst the settled and transient members of the local community an unease regarding things social.

This particularly manifested itself in the lack of excuses presented for a night out with good banter and old fashioned craic and a bit of slagging (not for the Yanks).

To that end Finola and I and a few friends have decided to constitute a new social club here in the Marbella area.

The main objectives shall be;

- Social
- Social
- Social

It is proposed to hold the first meeting of Irish Club Marbella on the 25th Nov in Becketts
restaurant Marbella at 8pm sharp, or as sharp as you can, but not too late, otherwise you might be elected to a position.

The new constitution will be presented, all 1/2 page for approval of the members. Your solicitor should also be present to approve this very important document.

If you have anyone remotely associated with Ireland, even if they flew over Dublin
on the way to USA this qualifies; bring them along with their Irish grandmother’s birth certificate.

IrishClubMarbella E-mail addresses are available for any member that would like to use one for social communication, better than, hotmail, gmail, snailmail, popemail, pidgeonmail, etc, all very impersonal.

Let me know what password you would like and I’ll sent the settings, it’ll look like this; MyName@IrishClubMarbella.com

Menus* and details of interest will follow.

RSVP by Monday 23 November at 12pm to Finola@IrishClubMarbella.com / Ph +34 607 340523

For this inaugural (Barack Obama eat you heart out) meeting/celebration Marc Quinlan of Becketts along with U2 have laid on a forgettable (it’ll be the drink, what meeting) occasion.

The stipend for the night for a three course meal, choice of 7 with each, with1/2 bottle of wine,(its measure by the sommelier so no cheating) is €30 to be paid on arrival at the door vouched for by the local parish priest assisted by the rabbi.

If you feel like more, which I’m sure most will, the top class house wine is €18.

Hope to see you all on the night.

For the first time ever, the exciting professional american rodeo show is travelling through Europe and will be landing in Marbella on 2nd of October 2009.

The show promises energy and andrenalin as 50 of the best cowboys in the world display their rodeo skills along with over 100 beautiful rodeo animals.

The tour, which starts Sept. 11 in Madrid, is the collaborative effort of GP Spain, a partnership of sports and music promoters in Spain, Sarasota, Fla.-based ESFM Entertainment and longtime PRCA stock contracting firm Rumford Rodeo.

The tour leaves Spain in late October and moves to Italy, Germany and Belgium in November. After the PRCA concludes its season with the National Finals Rodeo in December, the Rodeo Europe Tour will resume in February with scheduled stops in Sweden and The Netherlands, among others.

Some traditions, like the historic running of the bulls, have captivated Spain into the hearts of many. But when it comes to riding bulls, roping calves and racing around barrels at breakneck speed, it’s safe to say that for most of the fans, this will be their first rodeo.
