Free Taster Course

Drop in at Irene’s Speakeasy and enjoy a 90 minute taster course. Read and discuss a brilliant short story, and improve your English without even noticing it.

Next Taster Course:

There will be no special Taster Course this year, since there are only a very few places left in the courses. However, you are most welcome to join one of the courses any time, free of charge, to get a taste of what they are like.

ONE TRAIN OF THOUGHT

Every weekday morning, for several months, she’d smiled coyly at him from the UP platform across the rails.

What madness had possessed him to be on “her” platform this morning?

She was nowhere to be seen. He’d been incredibly romantic and stupid.

Then he glanced across at the DOWN platform!

(Norman C. Locock, Minisagas, 1999)
