-The Torrox Spanish History Group will be meeting on the 5th November and our speaker’s will Peter Afendoulis, a very accomplished and flamboyant speaker who presentation will is titled “Donald, Dónde están tus pantalones?” If you would like to know what that talk is about then come along and find out! I will give you a clue! There is a heart involved. Our second and very seasoned speaker will be Keith (Rockall) who will be giving a short talk on the Journalist and writer Carmen de Burgos.
-At our meeing in October we very much enjoyed an extremely interesting and well presented talk by Roy Vernon on the bombing of Guernica, titled, Why! Guernica. Roy’s talk complemented Anne (Heyes) excellent talk given in September on the evacuation of the Basque children from Bilbao to the UK in 1937 on the ship the Habana. We were also lucky enough to have two members of the history group whose families were evacuated to the UK, Mark (Dewey’s) family were evacuated in 1937 on the Habana and Jan’s (Urquijo) father was evacuated on a ship which left in 1939. Both Jan and Mark gave a first hand account of their relatives experiences. See photographs.
-We are also organising another coach trip some time during the end of November or the beginning of December, venue is yet to be agreed and of course we will be enjoying, as usual our Christmas Lunch in December.
