TT Tuesday drinks - discussion archive

Won't make it tonight.

Hooray, I'll finally get to meet Toronto!

I posted a few pictures from last Tuesday in the Gallery.

Garrrr, Tis GM's again at last! Who be going for some Grog tonight?

I might come along to see the Liverpool-Birmingham game

On a no beer week this week and so far so good, completed 1 / 7 th already

Me too allegedly
Failed miserably last night!

The other three are on the Beeb but is this one on TV?

Its on Sky!

Tuesday 21, 19:00(GMT), Sky Sports 1
Coverage of the FA Cup quarter-final match between Birmingham City and Liverpool at St Andrews. Kick-off is at 7.45pm. Steve Bruce's men would love to cause a shock against the European champions. Emile Heskey, in particular, has a point to prove after his difficult closing spell at Anfield. Rafael Benitez, however, will expect his men to reach the semi-finals after seeing off Manchester United in the last round

As The Joker would say: This town needs an enema!

What time are you going to be in GM's at?

you can usually count on people being there between 8 and 10. i tend to be more on the 9-11 plan. (ok, more like 9-12) (ok, sometimes 9-1)

OK, cheers

This will be my 4th or 5th time trying to watch a game of footie in GM's and find the TT crowd. You never know.

yea, we really should make some kind of TT marker... what about a little balloon based on the TT symbol? it could be a little block / dice shaped thingy. @EditorBob, you could sell them as TT merchandise.

@jeffaree: ask the barmaid and she will point you at the right direction (mostly)

@ tuca

Tried that one before and she pointed at about 200 people

That's the problem with meeting in this kind of pub, in my opinion - great for people who already know everyone else, but difficult for newbies.

I'll be there around 8:30...

I'll be there 8-ish!

Will be there after dinner, probably 8 or 9.

so if one is new to the TT meetup and does not know anyone, how would one find the other TTers??? Just follow the English voices?

Cheers, Rus. I'm glad I couldn't make it now They certainly caused a shock. Need to concentrate on overtaking the Baggies now.

And why would that be different in any other pub?

are we saving for a rainy day where the people who like to drink?

EDIT: noticed just now no venue either, oks lets look one up now

Champs league tonight, don't imagine the attendance is going to be that great.

not looking for too many footie fans i am, let the ladies come by

EDIT: Zur Brezen then, no footie on there

Nice suggestion.

Wirtshaus Zur Brezn
Leopoldstr. 72, Schwabing

That sounds good. Top quality tucker there too. If anyone interested in coming along could post we can hopefully source a few tables in the downstairs section. Plus, a venue which may attract Don Riina out is always worth a visit.

I'd go for Zur Bretzen, dont think there has been a TT Tuesday there before now. There are a couple of rooms downstairs that can be booked.

Chumps league is a load of tosh.

I will probably stop by for a short while early-ish, as it's directly on my way home from work. Around 18:20 or so. What name is the reservation under and which part of the restaurant? There's 3 floors to choose from.

There's no reservation yet. Will call them in a little while if we see a few more numbers. Any more than about ten and we'll go for one of the bigger sections downstairs.

Well, I won't be online after 3:25 or so. Try for the downstairs section that zigs back from the top part of the stairs.

I might call in for one later, closer to 21:00.

If I go I'll be there early, 6:30ish, not yet sure I'm going though.

Anyone who's going please sign up on the list so we have a rough idea of how many will be out. Thanks.

I'm down as a "maybe", pending work and shopping (after which I'll be definitively skint, so anybody who wants to buy my drinks is welcome to).

One good thing about this place is that it is open late. I seem to remember leaving here about 2.30am last Tuesday*!!

*I blame Keydeck

@GG

Get your own ya cheap southern belle

@ DK
Hey, I didn't get this far in life without a bit of shameless freeloading.

i will be there after deutsche class so looking at about 8.30 pm

I'll second that and of course ordinarily I would allow you to freeload from me.
However I am in UK this week so no go for me!

For any new people who'd like to come out this is a good opportunity to meet people as it'll be a fairly quiet evening. Just sign up on the list and come along.

Yes, it'll be a quiet evening... and I promise not to hit anyone up for money. Not any newbies, at least.

Dammit, Rus, your deep pockets and generosity don't do me any good in the UK!

Sorry!

I can see a double-team thing about to happen here. Arshoo will be humping someones leg and while they're distracted GeorgiaGirl will half-inch their wallet. Be afraid!

er ... why is theposterwithnoname on some other attendance sheet all by himself , look below, not in the reservation space, below that.

It's actually quite pleasant.

girls please remember to shave/wax legs before you come for drinks.

thanks GG for pimping it further

@GG

You forgot Drinks and Smokes too..

Right, I've had a word with them. As the list stands at 10 I've told them to expect between 10 and 20 people. They have a couple of big bookings tonight but it won't be a problem. Generally more people show up than are on the signup list anyway.

I said people would the arriving from about 7:30 or thereabouts. All nice and vague I know but without proper commitment it's impossible to make a good reservation.

Booking is in the name Toytown and will most likely be downstairs. If you're not sure when you get there just ask the staff.

Please sign up on the list if you are coming. It makes us as a group look bad if we are way off with a reservation.

It goes without saying that the more the merrier and everybody is welcome regardless of age, gender, skin colour, religious persuasion, political viewpoint or musical preference.

Well, I wrote that so I guess it went with saying. Oh well. Oh, if your musical preference leans towards all male groups who don't play any instruments and couldn't muster a half decent facial hair growth between the lot of them then you are indeed welcome but it'd be best if you kept that particular subject under wraps
