About Us

Réans, Armagnac, 32 Gers, France
Our objective is to promote friendship between women of all nationalities living in Gascony, SW France, to share our interests and to offer help when needed. The Club started in 2008, with twenty English ladies living in Gascony, using a foreign language and experiencing a new life. Since then, several different groups have been added and our membership has grown into the hundreds, with new ladies moving to the area and ladies who have lived here a while, who have discovered us, who want to make new acquaintances and discover new areas of interest. Today we have eleven nationalities, and our speaking/working language is English. The GLC meets on the second Tuesday of each month, excluding July and August.Every member receives an email each month, giving the name of the restaurant, the chosen, menu and a booking form. In 2014, we became a non-profit making Association, known as Ladies Lunch Club de l’Armagnac and was re-named in 2019 to Gascogne Ladies Club. Our annual subscription fee of 10 € is payable in January each year. Each member of the Club may participate in some or all of our various groups

Talking Shop News


The Ladies Lunch Club Talking shop gives members the opportunity to practice conversation, primarily in French, but for our French members or those with limited English, the chance to talk and learn more vocabulary in our working language.




Again tea or coffee, cake or biscuits are normally on offer which is also part of the cultural exchange and getting to know each other in an informal setting.
Each nationality produces a different favourite delicacy and I have to say Dutch coffee is delicious!!




In March 2014 we had a very happy get together at Magda's home.  
It was a little unusual as because it was Pancake Tuesday we were treated to pancakes in the Dutch way for lunch, and could compare recipes.  

At the next meeting in April we shall welcome two new members to our Club. 

As usual if anyone is interested in joining the Talking Shop please email me : muashby@gmail.com
