Manchester Drinks
9 March 2016
On the evening of Wednesday, 9 March, a small number of Old Stoics gathered at the Great John Street Hotel, Manchester, for a Drinks Reception. Invitations were sent to over 400 Old Stoics who live in the North of England. The up take was relatively small, with just twenty accepting the invitation and unfortunately, a number of guests were unable to make it on evening itself. We had a very jolly evening regardless of this, enjoying sparkling wine and mezze platters, in the Headmaster’s Room at the Great John Street Hotel – it seemed a fitting location for a School event!
We were hoping to find a regional representative to help us to drum up enthusiasm and attendance to future OS Events in the North of England and, happily, those in attendance were keen to help with our efforts. We hope to return to the North of England soon to hold another event, possibly on a weekend to make it easier for those travelling a long distance for the occasion.
Thank you so much to all those who were able to join us for the evening, I hope you enjoyed meeting other Old Stoics from your area.
