ESD X

End of July’s ESD set the record of participants: more than 50 people attended the pleasant reunion, with enlarged international community and few new guests from Australia, Thailand, Bulgaria, Cameroun... who added to the usual friends from UK & USA. The Italian group of people was reinforced by the participation of friends from Milano and Bergamo, on top of the local guests. Among them we had the pleasure to welcome also well known dignitaries of the Province of Udine, who suggested to introduce also the Friulano among the foreign languages often used in the ESDs!!!

The give to the dinner an additional international flavour, the spanish menu based on Gaspacho and Paella was perfectly accompanied by excellent wines of the Toniatti Giacometti estate, well represented by the charming Roberto.

Bruno’s birthday was celebrated first with a precious piece of Rachmaninov wonderfully played by the very talented pianist Eleonora from Trieste. Than, at the very end of the soirée, the irish-australian Eleanor performed with her beautifully voice a lovely song of her own composition, the poetic “Une bujnòre di Maj” in Friulano!

Next appointment, the coming Tuesday, August 7th, with the exclusive participation of our friend Gemma, just arrived from London, who will be pleased to answer to any question about all aspects of English life & culture (not only about the weather, but also about politics, literature, Royal Family etc…)

For obvious organizative needs, please email me ( info@deciani.it ) or call (tel. 349 7469230) to confirm your attendance.

The ESDs will continue as usual, every Tuesday, even in August, so please bring along your friends and family who might be visiting during this period and we will be happy to warmly receive them.

With many thanks, the ESD Team
