Londoners Latin Beginners Study Group?

Would anyone be interested in a study group through skype or discord or possibly in person in London for people with no prior experience w/ Latin?

C: Augustine made an interesting point when talking about the connection between the love and jealousy, suspicion, fear, temper, and quarreling. They go hand in hand and often it is hard to have one without the others. We’re stuck in the human condition of wearing our “chains with bliss but with torment too.”
