We are back! Today we have had our first session of the Bookworms Club and it was memorable: we started with the presentation of the readings in an imposing place: the mansion of the Earl of Sandwich, sir John Montagu. Her lovely wife received us in the blue room and offered us a delicious afternoon tea. Nothing was missing: the beautiful china, the tea, some biscuits, cupcakes, fudge, cucumber sandwiches... A real British tea at 5 o´clock!!! She taught us the etiquette for this event and she even told us the story of the sandwiches, invented by her husband one day he was terribly busy. We were a bit reluctant to eat the sandwiches but they were very tasty though. And the meeting ended up with a traditional fairy tale,
"The enormous turnip", which transmits the importance of unity and team work. By the way, did you know that the Britons love the turnip and throw away the greens meanwhile we, the Spaniards, do it the other way round? Crazy world!!!
