Pinar del Rey Outing

Posted by Round Table on Thursday, April 29, 2010,

Our next social event is a "campo outing" - a day at the countryside for the non-Spanish speakers out there - in a relatively unspoilt pine forest in San Roque, Spain. Yes it's the Pinar del Rey. I say relatively unspoilt as rumour has it a road is being built which encroaches on the Pinar.  
This is a family event and is not one to be missed with special surprise activities for all.


When: Sat 8th May
Where: Pinar del Rey
Meeting Point: 10am on Spanish side of border.
How to get there for those ar...

New Picture Galleries

Posted by Webmaster on Friday, April 23, 2010,

I have updated the picture galleries on the site. I was not too happy with the slideshows I had put up and have been searching high and low for a solution. Low and behold it was staring me in the face. Visit cooliris.com and you will see what a fantastic way this is of viewing images on the web. What I hadn't realised is that it also allowed me to create galleries, in their own inimatable style, on the website.

Cooliris allows us to view our photos of different events on a virtual wall. Click ...

Where: IPA Club

John Harrison, Gibraltar's global adventurer will be addressing Round Table Gibraltar on his recent experiences. This is a special event as John was once a tabler himself.

To quote our secretary, “we are not talking about a trek por Grasalema Park!!!! Minus 1538 celcius and one or two man eating polar bears is more likely on the cards.”

This is one not to miss.

Spoiler alert!: For those of you who...

1st Business Meeting

Posted by Webmaster on Saturday, April 10, 2010,
Our first business meeting for the 2010/11 tabling year is on Tuesday 13th April at 8:30pm. The venue is the usual Casino Calpe. In a historic moment, thanks to the incoming president, attire will no longer be lounge suit, but semi casual instead. This is not carte blanche though, as trainers, caps and football shirts are not appropriate. A smart pair of jeans, however,  is ok.

See you on the 13th.
