The-English-Speaking-Club Programme 1/2026
Unless otherwise stated, we meet on a Tuesday at 19.00 hrs in the Arminia Klause in Oberrödinghausen, Menden. The club consists of our chairwoman, Christine Baron, our delightful treasurer, Christa Price and our spokesman, Martin Smith. There are no obligations to take part in the games etc. that we organise. If you so wish you can simply watch and listen. The club began in 1996 and has no membership fees. We are open to everyone who can at least speak a little English!
| 27th January | “Bingo” with our most treasured asset Christa. |
| 10th February | “Beetle Drive” with the delightful Elke. |
| 24th February | “Charades” with Martin. He hasn’t got a clue, so this’ll be good! |
| 10th March | “Flip Seven” a card game with Petra and Gudi. Well done girls! (New) |
| 24th March | “Who are we?” we are looking for famous couples, with Ronnie and Axel, who always spread good cheer! (A new view of an old game) |
| 7th April | Anja and Ronnie want to explain to us the “Rules of Whist” . (New) |
| 21st April | “Headlines” with our glorious chairwoman Christine. (New) |

| 2nd June | “Taboo” with our wonderful duo Monika and Martina. |
| 16th June | "Bingo" with Christa yet again! |
| Friday the 26th June | It’s our annual and traditional "BBQ" at Martin’s house. (Bachstr.65 in Menden) It starts at 18.00 hrs. and all you have to bring is your own meat, cutlery, and good humour. Drinks and a hot grill will be ready for you. We’ll be needing some volunteers for salads. We also have to apologise because Martin is planning one of his simple, rather stupid but funny quizzes. We tried to talk him out of it but to no avail. (This quiz is ideal for people with a very low IQ – maybe zero!) |
The first meeting after the summer break will be on the 8th September!
