Hi Joe,

ambiance, and meeting friends. Would it be possible to have the venetian
blinds open, so we can see the city? Also would like more reggae.
3 most favourite dance tunes: too difficult to answer - but would include
Bob Marley/Police/Doobie Brothers/Tamla Motown
Look forward to the next one,
=========================

Gloria Gaynor, Bruce Springsteen, Rolling Stones, Beatles, Blondie, Suzy
Quatro, B52s, Who,..you know yourself!!!

======================
Joe
The ma says she enjoyed herself enormously - must say it was great to
arrive into a room with so many familiar faces and no march or meeting in
sight! Great atmosphere and the music had us all up at least some of the
time. All I can say is more of the same. And maybe music not quite so loud
initially so we can hear ourselves talk?
May not make 11th but see you at the one after. Musicwise how about a bit
more cuban/latin/african?
