Pots of Evil - Friday evenings during Advent

which would mean that it is advisable to do the food shopping before friday night as on saturday going to supermarket might not be fun... :

It's quite possible you'll still be in a less than salubrious pub on the Saturday.

even more of a reason to do the shopping beforehand...

I think I'll call in for a quick cup of devil juice on my way home.

my other thingy that i had on for friday has been cancelled, so i will also pop along for the inaugural session of madness

Has what you had on for Saturday been cancelled as well , Topsy ?

In case we need an excuse to drink even more, I may have a reason for celebration.

That's if I can manage to grow a healthy sized pair of balls by the end of the day.

sorry to hear it has been cancelled, i am however happy that you will make it tomorrow

Yay! Topsy is going to be there. Only met her once briefly, looking forward to a chance to have a drink with ya

So what time is this thing on Fri.?

it starts whenever the first people turn up. I gather some people are planning to be there not long after 4pm.

How cold is it in Munich now? I heard that last weekend was quite warm. With my luck it will probably be freezing. But hopefully after a few of these I won't feel the cold.

not too cold at all compared to what it was last year anyway!

it was fairly misty this morning, so the moisture makes the air feel colder than it has been. When the sun is out, it is pleasant. Anyways, it is certainly NOT thick woolly jumper and Arctic coat time.

Why bother wearing clothes to POE?

because not everyone is an Adonis-esque sex god like you, MT.

Arshoo and I are going to be celebrating. After months of emails we finally get to meet each other!

YEAH!!!

EDIT: So do I have to wear clothes or not Saint

Absolutely not, we want to add your picture to the Britney Spears thread.

Besides, removing clothes comes after POE when your stumbeling around drunk and hot/sweaty..

so ok, we need a "arshoo spears britney" photo op!

Actually we don't.

But I've not been and done any Jim this week OG.

Is it getting hot in here, or is it just me?

oh, right, you cannot open a window at work can you?

Should be fun tomorrow night.

which Jim is this, may cause a few confusions MT

you'll have to make sure that Ed Bob turns up to PoE, then

Unfortunately my "dance" card is full at the minute.

Time for a roll call so that whoever gets the earliest can bag us all some space

1. Phil (around 5pm)

About 5.20pm. Contact Scogs, he may be an early bird.

I have to get film by the HBH so I will be there. Where in Munich central is this place?

If I don't pass out from exhaustion before then, I'll be there too. Wherever "there" might be.

I should be arriving with escort just before 5, if he is on time!

Oh, a mystery escort...do tell!

only til is real life girlfriend shows up.

The girlfriend will try to get there by 5:30.

Neurotic bosses and surprise packages not withstanding.

I'm also planning to stop by at some point. Cookie will probably be one of the early birds.

Oh dear now damage will be done.

@pootle - Are these directions accurate based on the new location of the stand?

Dramadiva and I will be there before 5. Hopefully.

You must be referring to Cookie

Thanks JJ and Carm.

@JJ you will still owe me a beer by tuesday morning.

I'll be there circa 5pm

We're coming down too when Herr returns from work.

Here is a map of the Weihnachtsmarkt. It would be great if someone could put an "X marks the spot" to show exactly where the PoE stand is now located. Although, I doubt it will be that hard to find.

I am thinking about 6-6.30 also now, since I am old and last night took its toll I shall power nap before I arrive

It's exactly here, bottom of the green arrow. South-east corner of the Christmas market, opposite the Konen entrance. Stall number 251.

I think my X marks the spot now

Not quite. That red cross is the inside of the Rosen Apotheke. It's actually the green X below:

Mate, I think your "X" marks a building. Granted, it may be an interesting building, like a pub or a tittie bar, but it's still a building, methinks.
