Yes, it's that time of year again when we all descend on Barcelona for Mobile World Congress. And this lunch is a chance for the ladies headed to MWC11 to get together for an hour or so over a relaxed lunch and chew the fat with our peers away from the main drag. Priority will be given to ladies to attend. If there's room, then we'll be able to have some gentlemen join us too. However we are limited in space.
We have the upstairs of a local tapas restaurant all to ourselves. It's the same one as last year - Restaurant Aranega. And it's about 5 minutes walk from the entrance of La Fira on Avenida Paral-lel. http://www.aranega.es/ They looked after us well last year so I’m sure they’ll look after us well this year too.
If you're interested in joining us, please let me (Helen Keegan) know by RSVP'ing on Facebook (or you can search on facebook for ‘MWC11: Ladies-only lunch’. I’ll be taking payment in advance and it will be 20 Euro per head (or thereabouts). That's because we need to pay for the food in advance as the restaurant will be busy so we’re pre-ordering. I'll be able to take payment by PayPal. The lunch will be a range of tapas to share with soft drinks provided. Wine and additional dishes can be ordered on the day and paid for separately.
Of course, if we get a sponsor, then we won't need to worry about payment... so if anyone is up for that, or knows someone who is, please get in touch with me by email.
