If you're squinting towards Escobar, be aware that the TT over-thirties will also be there en masse on their crutches and walking frames before shuffling off to the Ü30 Party at the Georg-Elser-Halle.
ian
Ok senöritas and senöriblokes

As it's such a great place we will be at the Escobar in Haidhausen from 7pm on Friday.
A merge of convenience with the Ü30 Party lot. Its the place to be!
We will be on the tall tables by the bar.

Everyone is, as always, welcome to join in the fun. Air guitar and Mr. Roboto moves not appreciated though.

Actually on the tables? This we have to see, especially in that dress! tongue.gif

Who can write the best caption to that photo?

"Melvyn knew that it was her first day on the job, but thought she'd never get the hang of waiting on tables!"
CitizenSmith
I do hope Ian turns up in that little black number otherwise I'm going to feel a real dick.

 
ian
"Who ordered the jellied heels?"
CitizenSmith
"You know what Ian I really don't think those shoes go with that dress."
Tinde
Hi,

I also want to see Ian in his nice dress smile.gif that's the only reason I'm joining you guys for the first time tonight... not really, I've lived in Munich for almost two weeks now and need some company... see you later then!

This is going to be such a disappointment for some people tonight! I'll not be shaving my legs!
Allershausen
I should hope not, I don't want your hairs falling into my beer!

Was that your suggestion for a caption for the photo?
Allershausen
I've put some photos in the gallery. Anybody want anything removed PM me.

Was madness in the house last night but great to see such a big bunch with lots of new faces smile.gif

Hi

On Friday we'll be at the Ysenegger, Ysenburgstr. 3 from 7pm
Its right by the U-Bahn Rotkreuzplatz. They have great cocktails there.

We have 30 places reserved on the high tables on the right as you go in the door.
It is booked in the name of the tousled London Mayoral Candidate Boris Johnson.

Everyone is welcome to come along and join in the fun. New people especially.
Call or sms me if you not sure if we really are that funny noisy lot crowding around the high tables.

U-Bahn: U1 Rotkreuzplatz. Tram: 12

We'll be looking for volunteers to join a recce squad! If you come along on Friday, at some stage the recce squad will sneak out for a bit and check out some other bars nearby to check for Friday suitability and see if they too have the tall tables. Of course the squad will have to test the beer there too before returning.
The thing about the tall table is that they are are ideal to allow people to move around and chat to different people. You dont want to get stuck in the corner like in some restaurants. Also, many like to stand up to drink. A British pub tradition. So the tall tables allow people to both sit and stand and be on the same level. (And air guitar too apparently!)
Allershausen
I'll probably be a bit later than usual, but I will be armed with a Dutchman, who will no doubt be up for a bit of a recce!

Ooh! Sounds cosy.
Allershausen
Be careful, he's easily upset!

Is that picture from another BBC documentry from April 1st?
Cece
New to Munich. Will see if I can make it. How do I find you guys?... by the echo of loud obnoxious Amis/Brits I presume?? Ahh I miss the old country.

Cheers

Actually the funny thing is, Boris Johnson looks more like a Koala than the Koala does.

Either
1) ask at the bar for the table booked in the name Boris Johnson or
2) call or SMS my number saying where you are and we'll find you or
3) walk up to any group and say "are you... er.. Toyt..." by which time someone will say " hi! yes!.. here we are. Just sit anywhere on these tables here.."

Or come up with another imaginative method to track us down. Any ideas?

In summer we have an orange flag that we put up in beergardens. (Made with Space technology)
crowes
walk in with your dick hanging out, you might not be in the venue long but we will spot you!
ian
<sigh>... Moving on...

Anyone up for an early start? 6pm 6.30? (No willies please!)
llees
I'm tempted to suggest we start now. I think I've worked enough for one day.
CitizenSmith
I'll be there 6:45

Topper night, mostly superb service, I wonder how the waitress did it, given how crowded it was. And yes, the high tables are so much better for mingling and playing air guitar.

Any results from the recce squad?
ian
The recce squad did not get too far. We went to Cafe Yesenberg, Pardy and The Big Easy. None were suitable for a group of our size with the need to mingle. sad.gif
There are still plenty of good places to choose from, but it underlines the importance checking out places beforehand. Including old favourites to see if they have changed.

"Somewhere in Munich" - well, I hope you don't go to the Frühlingsfest this Friday - want to pop in and say goodbye to LSR but don't fancy sitting in a tent amongst hordes of beer swilling folk!
ian
But I can think of nothing finer! But maybe next week. Did you mean LSL?
Allershausen
The weather might be better next week as well. Wet weather beerfests are a bit grim.*
Is LSR a Lash Speed Record, the worlds fastest pub crawl? smile.gif


*I know it's not raining at the moment but the weather forecast says it's going to.

Oops, indeed I did mean LSL smile.gif
ian
I wondered why you were after the Land Speed Record. Or did you want some Liquid Silicone Rubber? Or even the Luftschutzraum (Air Raid Shelter) or maybe a Lunar Surface Rendezvous?
madgibson
Nah, think I was getting confused with the Lone Star Ranger huh.gif In any case...any further forward with the location? How about Wasserwerk? They have an area to the left of the bar with some high tables/stools for mingling...
leisure suit larry
Oh brilliant! Liquid Silicone Rubber Larry wants to party in the Luftschutzraum!
ian
I was going to put Lesbian Sex Romp. But I decided that, and Ladies Shaven Region, would lower the tone of this otherwise top quality thread. So I didn't!

Thanks for that tip. Have you been there? Can you personally recommend it? Knowing the type of clientele that we are. And that we'll need space for 30+ revellers.
Carm
we have had a few events at Wasserwerk, if you reserve the area to the left as you come in, there is room to mingle and its higher tables and chairs, its right around the corner from Paros.
Allershausen
Do they sell beer? The website goes on about cocktails and spirits but there is no mention of beer that I can see. I know just about everwhere normally sells beer but if it's like Juleps and only sells beer from small bottles at extortionate prices, I vote for somewhere else that does both beer and cocktails!
ian
- Thanks Carm.
- I'll check out about the beer. That is kind of essential. If I have to drink cocktails I go mad and start trying to do Air Guitar!
Allershausen
Like this you mean?:

Carm
yeah, they have beer, not sure the brew though, BlueDave's birthday was there last year.
Allershausen
Oh we're not worried about which brewery, we'll drink anything! biggrin.gif
