That's actually better advice! I forgot about the bus and also the fact that the U-Bahn station there isn"t actually called Charlottenburg like the S-Bahn!

What's this lying in the backseat of the cab? Oh, it's a baton. I've brought it to Sunday brunch and the consensus is to head West, to
Irish Harp PubGiesebrechtstraße 15
10629 Berlin-Charlottenburg
U7 Adenauerplatz or S Charlottenburg
Don't panic, fellow adoptive Ossies, it's a short walk from the Stadtbahn, and right on the U7.

Since it's close to my nexk of the woods, that should be quite doable for me. My only thing is that I've got a reception beforehand near Brandenburg Gate that I have no idea how long I'll be at, but on my way home, I figure to drop by.

last week was fantastic. although the 3.5 hours sleep I got definately started to show midway through my German lesson, as I started to do the head nod/ eyes involuntarily closing thing...
Looking forward to this Thursday.

i.e. it was assumed there would be a backlash against heading west. This has so far has failed to materialise unless someone wishes to prove me wrong...

Aug 20 2007, 6:30 pm
As for expecting a back lash I think that it's time we moved west. It has been discussed before and now someone has finally come up with a suggestion. See you all on Thursday!

Hi my name is Angel, not sure if this is event is for new comers or not...lol or just a selct few ...
I am looking for new ideas and places and new people here in Berlin... Is this open for new comers:)

Aug 21 2007, 1:16 pm
Hey Angel - yes, of course, newcomers are very much welcome. About a third of the people at Thursday night drinks are newcomers, the rest are people who used to be newcomers but got addicted (like myself)

See you Thursday?
ScotsLassinBerlin
Aug 21 2007, 2:14 pm
Veterans is what you call us non newbies! Soon you will all be one! And Thursday nights are for everyone and anyone. I have been attending regularly and now I am a fully fledged alcoholic, and very rarely make it to work on time on a Friday! Thirsty Thursdays rock...I think!
gooner_gal
Aug 21 2007, 2:18 pm
Please do not blame the wonder that is thirsty Thursday for your alcoholic tendencies young lady. They were WELL established before you even turned up in Berlin!!

Can you please let me know the exact time and date...
Howlong the party will be...I am new to this ...

It officially starts at 8.. but people mostly show up anywhere between 8:30 and 10.. and as for how late.. as late as you want. Some people start going home around 10 or 11, but certain people tend to stay out until 5am
gooner_gal
Aug 22 2007, 11:57 am
Time = 8pm
Date = Thursday August 23rd and every Thursday (at a different location)
How to spot us? Some of us have photos. Some don't. If you post a photo then we can keep a look out for you too. Normally we say "look for the big crowd speaking English" but I think this week that might not be the best thing to do!!!

See you tomorrow evening!

Hey you all,
I am a Finnish girl doing my internship here in Berlin, and don't really know anyone here yet. This thursday night drink sounds like a lot of fun and I would be happy to join you... If that is ok of course? I am not a native speaker but I think I should be all right nevertheless...
So thursday around 8, in the Irish harp pub?
Would be nice to know someone here, starts to get quite lonely exploring the city by myself
Majisa

It looks like I am also going to make it this time. See ya...

I'd like to come but I don't think I can. I blew my bike tires last drinks night and haven't fixed them yet, and also I'm detoxing so I have to stay away from alcohol and being exposed to smoke.
phoenix-rose
Aug 23 2007, 12:46 pm
Humm.. if it's any indication of the day I'm having, it's 1:45pm, haven't had a break, and it doesn't look like I'm getting one - even for lunch. So, if I get out of here on time, it'll be a minor miracle... let alone if I make drinks... I'm gonna try at this point.
Meanwhile, keep your fingers crossed for me - and I'll post again once I know later.
globalgirl
Aug 23 2007, 2:50 pm
looking forward to drinks tonight. although will be making a concerted effort not to stay out quite as late...
trying to remember how I felt last friday, but my memory seems to fade with the first drink..
sunny
Aug 23 2007, 7:50 pm
not feeling well so I won't make it, but I hope y'all have fun out & bout in Cberg tonight
Sandgroperin
Aug 24 2007, 10:37 am
as much as the Harp was a nice place - can we pick somewhere this week where we are able to make noise - particularly in the interest of Goonergal and Scotslas they really shouldn't be restrained in that way it's not good for their health.
alex_m
Aug 24 2007, 10:46 am
It was suggested that we went to hairy mary's as they have live music next thursday - plus we can make noise there! Any thoughts?
ScotsLassinBerlin
Aug 24 2007, 10:54 am
Stubbs said she had the baton! So I wait with baited breath to see where she picks!
alex_m
Aug 24 2007, 10:56 am
Haha, well she agreed with the suggestion last night, so...
stubbs
Aug 24 2007, 12:35 pm
hmm? yes! suggestion has been agreed to. Hairy Marys it is, unless anyone feels that we simply must try somewhere new in which case ill suggest somewhere round the corner and we can do a drink there and then all who wish to see the live music can journey to diedenhofer strasse.
phoenix-rose
Aug 24 2007, 12:36 pm
Yeah, I liked the area the irish harp was in, but was *NOT* impressed with the service. 35 minutes for a spoon to have the stew?
How long did others wait for beers and etc.?
How many orders were wrong?
Humph...
Benefit of the doubt would be that it was a bad night (4 servers on and all of us) but...
I look forward to next week's suggestion.
Oh - and to those figuring to move it around the city - THANKS!

Hey stubbs - will HM hold all of us comfortably? I figure we had about 30 of us last night...

Aug 24 2007, 12:39 pm
I still think they would have done better to have each server handle one set of tables rather than have one person take your order and another one bring you the wrong thing 15 minutes later.
stubbs
Aug 24 2007, 12:42 pm
oh yeah, you can get a good 45 people in there
globalgirl
Aug 24 2007, 1:27 pm
There's always room for everyone at Hairy Mary's! If need be there's the street outside, so really there's no capacity limit...
