Lucy,
Remember meeting Beth (front and center in photo) at D'Grande, the Tex-Mex Restaurant in Chiswick over the holidays. D'Grande (means Big D as in DALLAS) was opened by ex-pats Richard Burghardt and his wife Ashley, who found they missed their go-to comfort food. They couldn't find good Tex-Mex anywhere in London, so they decided to open a restaurant.
Beth invited Mom to join the Richmond ex-pat Wine Club, a highlight of the New Year. They meet every 'Woman Power Wednesday' from 4PM until 6PM. It is a fun and diverse group and has provided a nice uptick in our social life in our new village, as our network in Richmond grows.
Hope your WPW is going well,
Dad
