As some expats' requests. I've created a msn group for us and just simply add this group address to your msn:
cid-00097d5479c63ee4@groups.live.com
or add my msn:
innamoramanto@hotmail.com
and indicate that you are from the shanghaiexpats. All are welcomed.
Seems like nobody care... |

I can safely assume that I won't be all by myself at Coffee Bean, in case I manage to get out of bed on time tomorrow morning?  |

All the information you are looking for is on the first post page 1 of this thread. Only thing I could add is take line 2 subway to Zhongshan park and the entrance to the mall is right by McDonalds as you get out of the subway. |

No it is about people getting together and making new friends and seeing old friends each Saturday.
Many pages of the thread could be removed be just taking out the posts from the individual or two every week that asks if the meeting is still on or where is the meeting located. I have never understood why someone would think that the meeting will not be held on the next Saturday when it has been going on for every Saturday in the past 30 months or so. Location has always been the same as listed in the very first post. |

Runs weekly and the attendance varies based on conflicts, weather, and just plain luck. But a group of regulars float in and out. Pop by and intro yourself and see who you meet.  |

From ZS...believe Exit 4 (but I am old and have no brain).When you exit the turnstile go left all the way down.
Go up the escalator that pops up outside the mall and go inside.
Bear to the left and follow the CitiBank Signs all the way to the back side of the mall.
Coffee Bean has a glassed in area which is usually for smokers....Shexpat is Non-smoking...but that is where the meeting is.
There is usually a Shexpat sign... |
