Drinks and German language practice

All right, I'm on my way. Be there shortly after seven.

Hello all,
I would like to join for the stammtsch..But I dont know how to include mky namer in the attendance list..Could anyone help me with this...

Vytla

The problem is that an authorised oraganiser has not set a date place and time yet. Untill that is done you can't add your name to say you'll go.

Maybe PM one of the people who went before to see where and when the next one will be.

Usually these are every two weeks (last one was just last Thursday, so the next one would be next week 9.5), however you can not sign up for it before the place has been chosen. Therefore after Shaggy chooses the date, you will see this thread revived and then you may sign-up on the sheet. It really is a great event that Shaggy organises (and maybe some other people-not trying to leave anyone out), that usually has a mix of English and German native speakers, so you really can have help with your German. See you there!

I normally set the place the week before.. I'll update with a location tbc-

Anybody have any preference where to hold the 16th June event? Beer garden would be great but need to wait on the weather report..

We could always go to Augustiner Keller - good weather stay outside, wet/cold weather go inside (in the cellar).
Same goes for MaxE's, but we've only been there recently (not that I'd mind going there again though).

I aggree the Keller is always a good choice inside or out...

Ok.. lets go for the Augustiner Keller I've updated the attendance list.

If outside: we'll be close to the Hendel stall.
If rained off or too cold, Inside, we'll reserve under Toytown.

It's a big place so I'd suggest taking some handy numbers... pm me/Olli if you you don't have any.

Hello all,

Please tell the time for German stammtisch on thurday the 16th...

Hi vytla- If you click the attendance list in the 1st post, you'll see the details. 7pm start.

@ALL- alas, work takes me away again for the next 10 days so Brokenm has kindly jumped in to sort out logistics. If anyone needs a mobile number, pls PM him.

I'll be going directly from work to the Augustiner on Thursday...Hopefully I'm not too late. Arwen might not be able to make it...

Does anyone have an idea on how we will recognise each other (for the newbies) if the weather permits us to be seated outside? Otherwise, just send me a PM and I will send you my handy number.

That's a good question, cuz this will be my 1st ever TT event!

brokenm, I'll send you a PM so I can reach you...

I plan on being at Augustinerkeller around 6:30pm. Since obviously we'll be outside, PM me for my phone number if you wish so we can find each other.

people i am sorry but i have to work tonight

I'm heading out from the office in a few minutes. I'll be there around 6:30 sitting most likely with Oli. Hope the weather holds on a little longer...

Hi All,

I came to the Augustiner keller to meet u guys..but..I could not find anyone..As it was for the first time to come to tht place, I was really confused with the huge crowd...Hope u all have enjoyed it...Perhaps hope I will make it next time...

Vytla

Hey Vytla,

Don't feel left out...

I came there too, but couldn't find you guys, because I only knew Oliver out of the whole group, and there were millions of people there speaking German, and couldn't really hear any English. May be next time, we will get each other's phone numbers before going for an event.

vytla and simpleboy - sorry you missed us! As stated in earlier posts in the thread, just PM the ones that are organizing for a handy number, and call. Remember also, since it is a German Stammtisch, you won't have much luck listening for English (unless you arrive late and we've switched to English because we can't be arsed to talk Kraut anymore).

This event is scheduled to take place tomorrow. Looks like Shaggy isn't here to organize it. Post here if interested in participating, and I suggest that if a minimum of say 10 people sign up we can reserve a table e.g. at MaxE's. Otherwise, we can do it next week.

just went for a swim at Nordbad with Blimey Girl and she had mentioned the German Stammtisch. Can you send a PM to the regulars?

mein Deutch ist Kaput!

I could make it.

I might make it...especially if it's not too far from Tollwood! (as i'll be there all afternoon)...

Well good! So let's plan on going ahead with it then. Please sign up if you're planning to come so we have an idea of numbers.

Is Max Emanuel ok with everyone? If it rains the beer garden terrace is somewhat rain protected, and they also have proper indoor seating.

I might make it out... what time does this little get-together usually start? And finish? I have a friend going back to the States and want to see him sometime either before or after the Stammtisch... I'd bring him but he's only visiting and "er sprict kein deutsch."

Myself and two friends from my Deutsch class were planning on attending, but were beginning to think it wasn't going to happen. This will be our first attempt at the German Stammtisch. What time does the challenge begin?

I should be there around 6:30 - 6:45pm, so lets aim for starting at 7pm.

No problem if you come later, you can just join the conversation then.

I will give my best to come. i am just working so damn much lately!!!

So... is there a particular table, or "TT Stammtisch" sign (in case the place is crowded)? Or do we 1st-timers just have to ask every table there, "Sind sie die TT Leute?

Probably won't make 6:30-7 but maybe later on.

-dave

Table for 10 people is reserved for 7pm under 'Toytown'. It will probably be one of the tables on the terrace of the beergarden.

Apologies all for being so slack the last couple of events... too much travel and then apartment moving. Thx for keeping things going Oli.

Not sure if I'll make tonight but all will be back on track for the next event.

I say, MaxE's indeed has an interesting way of spelling Toytown.

Sorry guyz, but we couldn't make it there yesterday! Hope we didn't cause you any troubles not turning up like that! (I've warned you though)

Well I did actually make it, although must say poor turn out.

Not as many as normal, but still a full table to talk with. Thanks for organizing oli.

Stammtisch is planned for this Thursday... any preference on location? If none, I'll post one later today.

The next Stammtisch is planned for this Thursday...
..and it looks like I'll actually make this one

7pm Thursday 14th
Park Cafe
Sophienstrasse 7, City Center
U/S-Bahn Karlsplatz
Tel. 089 598313

Ask under reservation for "Toytown". (If the weather is good, the table will be in the beer garden.)

This is quite a nice, central place with space and a menu *just for aquatic merigue *

See TT description

Good choice of location.

The weather forcast is fab for Thursday, so I plan to attend

I'll be there!

finally some sun... be good to catch up!

what the hell am I chopped liver? peeps gotta eats you know...mmmm chopped liver...anyhoo I HOPE to be there fork in one hand, dictionary in another.

Cool I could do with improving mein Deutsch - so i might well show up - if i haven´t drowned in a sea of Augustiner in the mean time - a horrific possibility - that stuff goes down way too easy - especially the Edelstoff - anyway - slan libh - in my other mother tongue - (which means simply good-bye in Irish) .. or bis dann either ... or tschus (i´m getting carried away now ain´t i.. )

I'll be there...and I'll try to not insult your guests again brokenm.

If the weathers fine i'll try to come along and drink/speak like a German

To get an idea of numbers, pls could you use the "attendance list" link in the opening post, if you are planning to make it.

Cheers. S

Table for 10-15 booked under "Toytown" from 7pm.

If weather is good (as forcast), we'll be in the beer garden.

Depending on Weather, I might actually come along for this one !

Anyone else going who speaks rather basic German...? I'd like to come along but don't want to be out of my depth!!!

There are always many different levels. If you hate it just make up a fake excuse and leave early.

We are generally quite gentle. As stated there are normally people there of all different levels, and well the more advanced ones can also help. So just ask them questions.
