Drinks and German language practice

Just a reminder, don't forget to register if you are coming along this evening.

count me in.

OK, so when's the next one, I am going to be travelling a bit, so cannot organise the next, and guess it's the same for Shaggy, so we need some volunteer organisers ...

Anyone offering ?

The events will be starting again in Jan.

Ju Huu!!!

Great, I want to come, and I know at least one other person, who wants to come with me

My New Year's Resolution is to start coming to these.

Lets head for Thursday 5th... anyone have a preference on location?

No, but I always wanted to go to Paulaner Bräuhaus at Kapuzinerplatz

@Natalia- sounds like a good option. I've posted it so people can sign up at the "attendence list" at the start of this thread.

Not sure which room yet, but will reserve and post on the 3rd when I know numbers.

Next Stammtisch planned for:

Thursday the 5th Jan, 7:30pm
Paulaner Bräuhaus
Kapuzinerplatz 5
80337 München
Tel: 089/544611-0

To help with table reservations, pls use the attendance list in the start thread...

Happy Holidays!

I'll be there

I hope it will be close to normal turnout this week, so far there are three people and me signed in

Sooner or later I really would like to make it to one of these...

Do it do it do it now

Next Stammtisch planned for:

Thursday the 5th Jan, 7:30pm

Shaggy lives!?!!

@BB- I've finally stopped with all the travel...
Thought we'd lost you to Paris???

Back in MUC... looking forward to my first Stammtisch since May '05

nope, not in Paris until next month. stay tuned for a leaving do toward the end of the month!

@Onni- be great to see you! Been ages.

@BB- bin dabei... sad that you will be leaving.

One of the only times I get a Thursday off (normally have German classes!).. see everyone there, should be good..

Um how is it then, how we recognise each other? It's a first time that I'm coming, in fact first time I'm going to any TT event and I don't know absolutely anybody, and if I come there and ask, who is Shaggy, there might be some misunderstanding .

Ok, table for 15 booked under the name "Toytown Stammtisch" from 7.30.

See you all later.

Natalia, just ask the waiter for the Toytown Stammtisch table. Will also PM you my handy number jic.

Hey! Haven't been to one of these yet, but I would really like to..

Seems like there hasn't been a Stammtisch for quite a while now.
Is it because people who usually organise it are not here / have given up organising or have TTers just stopped showing interest?

If it's the former let's organise one!

So who's in?..

There was one on January 5th. So it's actually neither of your suppositions.

Yep, Shaggy organised one for the 5th, and it was a really good turn out. Keep your eyes out for the next one.

how did I not see this? I thought I clicked the last page button..

anyways nice to hear it's still on.. count me in for the next one!

@Borracuda- Was travelling for biz but more settled again so they'll be every couple of weeks.

Next one on Thurs 19th 7pm:

Enchilada's nr Stiglmaierpl ubahn
Gabelsbergerstrasse 97
Tel. 089 52 22 97

I want to come, but I sign a bit later, feeling a bit sick, but it should over by then.

are they always gonna be on a thursday? I have language classes then and would really like to attend this as well!!

Do you have German classes on Thursdays? Maybe you should come directly from the classes, bring others from your group and practise in what you have just learned.

Yep, we try to do them every second Thursday. Although this does not always work out. Usually they start at 7:30 and go on until everyone is tired of speaking German, that just depends on the evening though as to when.

So until 7.31 then?

@mullet

That is the reason I rarely go.. I have mine on Thursday too (and Mondays and Tuesdays).. it has always been on Thursdays though, and I guess changing it would screw it up for other people..

I have no issue with changing it but some of the regulars last year found it tough.. Wednesday would be an option, but conflicts then with curry night...Tuesday with TT drinks.. Monday ppl are dead and Friday messes with the weekend..

Lets discuss next week and see if Wed would be ok..

I'm not volunteering for anything...just offering a suggestion/question: if there is sufficient interest, what of having a 2nd German-speaking Stammtisch on another night? Seems the turn-out is pretty good (at least, the couple of times I've gone on a Thursday) that a 2nd night wouldn't kill the first, while offering the chance for more people to drink beer and speak bad German in a non-threatening environment. How many folks are out there who might go to a Tuesday or Wednesday night stammtisch (especially those who can't make Thursdays)?

I'm fine with that idea if enough ppl want to show up for 4 per month.. lets discuss next week.

Next one is this Thurs (19th) 7pm:

Enchilada's nr Stiglmaierpl ubahn
Gabelsbergerstrasse 97
Tel. 089 52 22 97

Newbies welcome!

I know there are a few ppl out there planning to come but not yet signed up.

Enchillada's isn't such a big place thus I'll need to reserve the tables in adavnce thus cut off time will be Wed 2pm. Pls sign up if you are planning to come. Cheers.

Hey! Thanks for the heads up shaggy.

Me and my wife will definitely be there..

I'm going to have to cancel this one time, as I have to now work on Thursday evening, and its probably going to be a late evening. Soz.

Good choice with the restaurant, Shaggy - Enchilada's has yummy food!

I'll be there, and I'll be hungry

I'd like to come. I just signed up - about 50 mins past your deadline - hope that's not a problem

No problem richm. See you there.

ANYONE ELSE WISHING TO SIGN UP, PLEASE ALSO PM SO I CAN MAKE SURE I GET THE TABLE SPACE.

Well, I thought I'd registered - I put my username and password in a clicked "register" and my name appeared but then when I went back to the list a little while later my name had disappeared again (and the same keeps happening)???

click on refresh when you are in there. Or make sure that you are not tabbing after putting in your username as it will go first to unregister.

Richm- I just checked and you are listed.. no stress.

I am not entirely new to Toytown...however, I have attended very few events. (Some of the Toytowners seem scary ) But I would like to work on my German, as it is very important to gain more acceptance from my colleagues! So, bis dann!
