Friday beer garden

Same explanation for the saying " pissed as a handcart " actually.

That made me laugh - but hey, it sounds like a very logical explanation.

That's easy - lots of old farts go to FBG to get pissed.

Well, if you are pissed as a fart, it means that you are shit faced! Easy! Like being rat arsed! It's all quite logical you see.

Tomorrow, the Lads Reckon that the Clean Dorks in their Nerd Cloaks may Close Ranks on the piper with a Slack Drone and and Ankle Cords for a Second Lark after they Drank Close to 10 beers.
Anyone with me on this? The clue is at the top of the page.

Rolandseck...next!

P.S. Are my eyes deceiving me or are there really no cocktails served at this establishment?

Oooh, proper time friday boozing! Like it, like it. I might be in that neck of the woods at that sorta time, I might join you for a small shandy.

Small shandy?!... What happened to you, Don?
Oh, yeah. Fatherhood
Hope to see you there, would be nice to catch up.

No suit today to take the piss out of btw

I was thinking of joining but the thought of bluedave in the nude is more than I can take. Please wear a suit.

Bloody Hell Sarabyrd, I'm about to eat!

Beer garden is gonna be a challenge for me today as I should not drink beer or wine. or anything else really aprt from coke or juice.. arghhhhh!

Damn I just got into town yesterday... and am all planned up for this evening, otherwise I'd make my first appearance.

It'll have to wait 'til next week. Enjoy, if you're not there already!

Fab night out! Ian, Gwyn - thanks for organising this. I hadn't gone to the FBG for a fair few weeks and it was a fantastic comeback.

Oh ja! apart from the cycling problem on the way back was lovely meeting new faces yesterday and catching up with old ones! Thanks guys for organising! BTW I think that we must have been about 40!

It seems to be about 40 these days. Next time we'll try to get a place with the standing tables again so we could all mingle and get to meet al the new faces. This is important. Especially to welcome any new people.

Ok-ely dok-ely

This Friday we'll be at Zoozies from 7pm
We've got the "podest" area on the left as you go in the front door. What is a podest? Dunno. But in Zoozies it is the raised area of tables past the bar.

Zoozies is at Baldeplatz near the River.
Cocktails, beer, blah, blah, blah!

I've booked this time in the name of the god lovin', irritatin' Simpsons neighbour Ned Flanders! (Son-of-a-diddly!)
So if you've never been along on a Friday and you cant find us, ask for our tables or call/sms me.

Zoozies address: Wittelsbacherstrasse 15
MAP
Transport Bus stop right by Zoozies Bus 58 Baldeplatz. Or U3 U6 Goetheplatz
Ned Flanders: I've done everything the Bible says - even the stuff that contradicts the other stuff!

Good stuff, see you there.

This place is worth going to just to look at the décor!

Bah! - you should see the one on the right - that's even "poder". (I "pode" areas!)

It's a bit poddy I suppose.
In any case we'll be up high, boogie-ing for all to see!

I think I have the plague, so I probably won't turn up.

If I do, though, everyone can use me as a "How will I recognise you?" point. I'm guessing there won't be a lot of women with red hair and enormous swollen glands.

Neck glands, people.

Damn that last line !

I'll be joining. First-timer. Please holler if you see me looking lost and timid.

As a treat for the ladies i may be bringing some Cadbury's Creme Eggs along tomorrow.

Oooooh, you are a sweetie!

What's the catch?

No catch, just an altruistic gesture based upon lots of ladies telling me at FBG that they want a creme egg, not saying i'm bringing hundreds along just 1/2 a dozen or a dozen maybe.

I'm highly likely to pop along tonight as I was going to Vienna but I'll set off bright and early in the morning instead.

Seems I'm the wrong sex for the creme eggs.

arghhh Bluedave I don't think that I can make it today...

By the way the bus is a great way to get to Baldeplatz, the 58 goes from the Hauptbahnhof via Goetheplatz and the 131 goes in the direction Viktualienmarkt or Heimeranplatz

Hi, I'm new at this! Until when is that place open? is it ok to come a bit later? Around 9?

I think it's safe to say that plenty of people will still be there after 21.00!

Ok BD, I'll take my place in the queue then

Another excellent bus route, which CitizenSmith didn't mention, is the 152 which connects with the U-Bahn stations Implerstrasse, Sendlinger Tor, and Ostbahnhof over in Dragon County. The stop to get off is "Kapuzinerstrasse", then walk along Kapuzinerstr., past the cemetery and on for another couple of blocks - about 5 mins walk.

Enough of the bus routes already!

Cream eggsssssssssss

BD is stuck in Amsterdam airport...let's hope he makes it with the creme eggs

BD why not join the sunday brunch at the Victorian Tea House ?

Pah! - you're just jealous cos you have to pedal home, cos they won't let you on the bus with your bike!

No, seriously, the 152 is a good option for us Dragonland dwellers east of the river. It's only a 20-minute bus ride from Ostbahnhof, without having to change anywhere.

Stop talking now!! MOVE!!!

I'm jealous because I'm not going to get a cream egg!
I'm jealous because I'm not going to be there!
And although the bus is a very much underestimated form of transport by those of the non-granny pursuasion, I'm not jealous when comparing waiting for a bus to biking in the rain.
I did get thrown off the 77 bus once <true> cos my bike fell over when the bus went round a corner. I was a fool!

Got a Cream Egg even though I did not make it to the event! Thx BD!!! Love you!!!

I'm getting all in the mood for beergardens again!

This week we're in the Biergarten im Bavariapark from 18:00 meeting outside in the area of the long tables near the serving Schänke counter thingy.
This place is great as it's 5 mins walk from the U-Bahn U4/5 Schwanthalerhöhe which is only 2 mins from the Hauptbahnhof. Hooray!

Outside: Look out for the famous orange flag at our long tables. (Not the type of table in the picture below) But if you cant find us, call or SMS me.
Inside: We have also reserved the standing tables inside for later should it turn cool. They are by the bar in what is called the Schwemme. Which, translated means watering place, public bar or glut! See the picture of the "barrel tables" below. I booked in the name of Principal Seymour Skinner. I don't know why!

Boy, you're quick off the mark announcing FBG on a Monday evening!

P.S. You missed some really groovy dance music at Zoosie's last week...DJ was brill and had a great trick to boot!

It sounds like you've already done a thorough test of their drinks, excellent, a beer garden at last and look at the weather forecast:BBC Weather Friday

I cut n pasted that from the link I posted. So I herby pass said buck.
Incidentally, I went there yesterday and it looks a really nice place. A first for the Firday beergarden. They serve both Edelstoff and Maibock

Are all the boring old old farts and tarts from the other English club gonna be there ?

The Friday Beergarden is open to all, shoulder chips should be checked at the door.

When you see the Giant Snail, you know you're almost there.
