Book it
What this is

There are people you’d get on with, and no particular reason to ever meet them.

So we make one

Founded in Oran in 2026 for people in their twenties and thirties who wanted something in the diary that was not work

Tennis, films, books, billiards, hikes and long lunches, in cafés and courts and one stretch of coast an hour west

Oran, Algeria

The diary

What’s on

The next few things

Most of it is free. Where there is a fee it is on the ticket, at what the thing actually costs us.

How it works

We book it. You turn up.

Somebody picks the thing, calls the venue and holds the table. All you do is put your name down and arrive, and there is a first name waiting for you when you do.

Nobody is asked to be interesting. Most people come on their own the first time, which is the only genuinely difficult part of it.

What the club is
Green hillside above the water
Every month

The regulars

Things we keep doing

Some run every week, others a few times a year. You do not have to be any good at any of them.

Membership

How you get in

A short form, then a phone call

It costs nothing, and you do not have to do it to come to most of what is on. The call exists so that on the day, somebody already knows your name.

Ten minutes on WhatsApp. Not an interview — mostly working out who to sit you next to.

The card

You are on the list, and the quiet ones — the ones listed by month alone — open up.
