SUMMARY:Oxford and Cambridge "First Monday" Drinks
DESCRIPTION:First Monday drinks  \n  \nIMPORTANT UPDATE \nThere are two major changes to our Monthly Drinks\, starting on Monday 1 June. \nWe have changed the day to Monday. Following difficulties in recent months in securing our usual space on a Wednesday – which is often in conflict with football matches – the advice of the venues we have been using is that Monday is much quieter and so we are more likely to get the space we want on that day. \nWe have changed the venue to the FROG HOP HOUSE\, 10 rue des Capucines\, 75002 Paris. After a successful trial for the May drinks\, we have decided to move to the Frog Hop House. \nWe will still meet from 7pm – no change there \n \nAll Oxford and Cambridge Alumni\, whether or not members of the Paris Societies\, are cordially invited to join us for our Monthly drinks get-together at this centrally located bar – very close to Opera and Madeleine metro and Auber RER stations –  at 10 rue des Capucines\, 75002 Paris. The Fog Hop House may be known to some of you under its former name\, Kitty O’Sheas.\n\n \n\n\nThis is a “drop in if you are free” event – there is no need to book. If you don’t find us ask the staff where we can be found.
