Drinks and German language practice

Not sure how busy we'll be... anyone else heading over?

I'm planning to be there!

Unfortunately I can not make it this week.

I will be there...that's what I'm saying at the moment.

I will be there...

@ Shaggy, I shall need a note from you mother if you intend to skip class.

Nilpferd's leaving do is taking place at the main bar and we have extra staff on hand to accomodate everyone.

Excellent idea.

That's the spirit.

Sarah and I had a good time tonight. Look forward to seeing you again.

Thank you to TexasTornado for an excellent lamb dinner, I was particularly impressed to get such a good substantial portion, that really hit the spot. I also thought giving me that little doughnut type thing as there was no pudding available was also a nice touch. Well done everyone at the TB.

Thanks also to Shaggy for saying I look no older than 25, I am almost 33 you know, and i still have all my teeth and hair

Hi,
Will there be a meeting next Thursday? I would like to join.

sure will be... just need to decide where. Anybody got a new place they want to check out?

@Kit Kat- your turn to arrange?

I would like to join u guys this time. It should be next thursday..right?

Where is it ? Was this decided ?

@ Pepper- U up for posting somewhere? I'm travelling this week so looking for someone to arrange as although I'll make it, I'm not gonna have spare time to manage it this week.

I am travelling as well this week, much like always, so its only a 50-50 whether I will be back on Thursday evening or not to attend.

I've asked Kit Kat...hopefully she'll have the time.

Ok, nobody's hosting this week's Stammtisch yet so I thought I take it.

Next event is going to be on Thursday, 14th April, starting at 8pm.

My proposal is to go to Cafe Altschwabing, they have a backroom that we should try to take over.
Address is Schellingstrasse 56, it's a five minute walk from U-Bahn stations Universität or Theresienstrasse.

Please PM or post if you like to come so I can reserve tables accordingly.

Thx Onni...

I will be there...

great! I will be there...and i will bring a friend

Dont think that i can make it this time...have a good one!

I reserved tables at Cafe Altschwabing.

So far I've four definites and two maybes - anybody else going to make it?

I should be there also...for a beer or two.

count me in

count me in

I will make it

put me down as another maybe...

i'll be there

should make it but leave need to leave early as have to catch the red eye on Fri am.

Will try to get there for a drink and a little german chat but it'll be after 9...

Am hoping to make it, but depends what time I finish my conference.

oops, i double booked. can't make it anymore.

Tom and I plan to get there a bit later...I have been out of the Deutsch loop since my injury...go easy on me

´Hi people, just a question...
i am new, how will I know who you all are when i get there?
ask the waiter?
see you today

Hi Elena, I forgot to mention that tables are reserved under the name "Becker" - just ask the waiter for that. We're going to sit in the rear part of the cafe and we are probably the only bigger group there. The place isn't very big so I guess it's easy to find us.

Any last minute people like to join in? Even famous folks like Thomas Mann or Paul Klee were chatting German in this cafe so we'll have the chance to follow in their footsteps

I might stop by for this

I might be along, not 100% sure though. If so, I'd likely be there already around 7:30pm. Anyone else coming early?

ok great
i will be a bit late, 8:30 or so

Oli, I'll be there around 7:40pm.

I think I might join tonight, at least for a bit. I've never been to one before, but no better nice, since its right near my place! How should I recognize you? (since the normal 'people speaking English' isn't going to fly)

Hi BSF, see German speaking Stammtisch - Language practice how to find us. CU later!

The next German Stammtisch is...

Thursday 28th April 8pm-10pm
Cafe am Beethovenplatz (aka. Cafe Mariandl)
Goethestrasse 51
80336 München

It's a 5 min walk from U-Bahn stops Sendlinger Tor, Theresienwiese and Goetheplatz or take the Bus 58 straight to Beethovenplatz.

We had the Stammtisch once here before and they have great food and an atmosphere to match So, folks, time to venture out of Schwabing and speak some German!

Please post by Monday evening if you're interested, so that I can book a table.

Sounds great. Have heard of this cafe before. This time I am surely in.

Cheers Kit Kat... appreciate you organising. This is a great place to eat.

I'm hoping to land in time so pls put me down as a def maybe.

Tom and I are probably in...will have to gauge foot pain though and decide that evening As usual will get there by 9 if we make it.

If I remember correctly that food was really good...particularly the jacket potato or was that somewhere else?

OK, first time in a while I am actually in Munich during the week, with not too much to do, I should make this one.

I would really like to come to this, i don't finish work until 9.10 pm though so it would be 9.30 at the earliest and all this is new to me! Should i just come along?

Hi Peeps. Reporting in from outer space. Okay not outer space just really high up. I love inflight internet. It makes me giddy. That and the fact that I had to work and so have been double fisting coffee and cola light. Anyhoo, why did I pop up here...oh yeah, I can't come this week. but I should be able to pop by for the next one, be afraid very afraid.

@sarahclem- normally the event goes on until at least 10-10.30 so drop on in...

@jml- excuses Wanna see how the all thewads of cash you through at the Goethe Inst has worked

Just curious, how hard is it to talk to English speaking people in German who are not as fluent as you? I might be interested in attending this one, but to be honest, I think that I would switch too easily back to English.
