Thursday QUILTs
Quite Interesting Little Talks
Whether or not you are currently enrolled on a course, you are most welcome to join us
Since the start of the first lock-down, on Thursday evenings at 7:30pm, we have been offering a little extra bonus to our wonderful language-learning community: a lecture, a talk, a discussion, a quiz... anything that might appeal to the wider interest of the group.Â
Having run out of topics to make into even a "quite" interesting talk, it has become a film discussion group, meeting fortnightly. Please see below for the films we plan to watch and chat about:
