Thursday 19.Aug.2004 - Augustiner Gdn (Arnulfstr.)

Ok,

weather permitting - anyone want to join me for an evening in my favourite beer garden? Hopefully the 19th and 20th will be quieter days for me in the office.

am thinking of a few beers a bit of food, and just relaxing

P

What time are you thinking of? As usual, I'd show up directly from work, i.e. 6:30ish. Any special reason for a 10-day notice?

I'm just planning the 10 day notice cos its the next time when I am majorly free.

I was thinking of going straight from work which means I will be athere from around 1730. Was also thinking of taking some food down for a smallish picnic.

P

If I am in Munich next week, I'll come along for a swift half.

Half? In the beergarten? You? You must be jokin' mon.

I'll also come if the weather is decent.

Yeah put me down for it too!

Will also bring some food type stuff.

put me down as well.

Yeah Poots, Jimbo and I would love to join you for a few ales. Not seen you for ages and ages be good to catch up.

I'm not going to make it. I will be in the land of the tulips, Gouda cheese and wooden shoes the whole weekend.

I'll probably make it..

Yes.
Katrina

Sounds good.
I'm in that neighbourhood anyhow.
Nice to be able to bring food.

margret

5 ish 6 ish ???

I'll probably bring ham slices, obazda and radishes or tomatoes.

I'm not going to go all domestic and bring a hamper and a tabl cloth as iI'm to the pub later and dodn't want to look a TOTAL girly!

Can we have a new role call who is coming?
If the weather is shite, what about Katrina's Neuhausen Augustiner as Plan B ?

Neuhauser Augustiner

oi!

Dont you go re-organising my event!!! on tt like 2 minutes and just running around like you own the place

If its wet the already in place plan is to dive in to the augustiner kellar.

P

I'll be there late-ish, after 7:30 probably. But I won't bother if it's raining, sorry.

I was only "bumping" cos I was bored at work and I'd already written dodgy E mails to loads of mates and I've got another good 90 minutes to kill...

<puts old copies of beano down trousers and hides>

All sounds good... will be there in good weather.

Cannot come along after all. I shall be entertaining the missus

ok aim to be in the beer garden from around 530pm. If any of the newbies are coming and have no idea of what we look like, PM for my handy number

P

Just a rough idea where you will be sitting, so as we don't have to scan the entire beergarden - how about the bit between the side entrance, loo and beer-and-food stall? cause I'll be a little bit later.

You will find Pootle by the Readybrek red glow around his head coz the silly bugger never puts any sodding sunscreen on!
Am I now going to get banned for making a negative personal comment?
Am still coming but having a quick mooch around Kleidsam first.
Katrina

POOTLE! yes I am shouting at you. You should ALWAYS wear sunscreen. Think of the spots and wrinkles! SPF 15 or higher, a fair lad like you should probably go 30.

I'm saying nothing as I got spanked yestrday for newbie-itis on this thread!

I have salami, smoked ham, emmenthal, obazda and radishes!

Katrina, that shop is for girls only! Yes Halloween IS approaching but I will go as a cheeky devil, or the nun again.

ok daniel is taking a really good nap so he should be ok to bring.

hey, do we still have the blue guitar?
or are we just keeping our eyes open for pootle's sunburn

I have no sunburn at the moment!!!

What time are people getting htere? Its going to be a bit hard to keep a few tables by myself??

P

You could do your mean and scary look !
I'll be there by 1730 I 'spect, there's only so much Tenko I can take when there's a beer in the offing like.

oh, just saw this. am entertaining a unix friend of mine and he says "are there any places a tourist definitely has to see" and this is one of them. i'll be in at 7.30, so me +1.

There are some right oldskool stuff on this thread - Tenko? That's clarse.
6-6:30pm for me post shop.
Katrina

Should be there around 6pm.

...and I'd go back in the closet for Angela Rippon reading the BBC News at the old time of 5:40, how Old Skool is THAT!

I'm gonna go ahead and go early with daniel. I'll be sitting near the playground. I'm also going to make my homemade obazda, so buy a pretzel if you want some.

Yuckers - It looks like rain!

Shhhh!

no, it looks ok

check the radar for rainfall - click on Loop 90 Minuten

Stuttgart wet, Munich dry

The radio just said don't go out without a brolly...hmmm...

Well, I went out without one, later than your post even Jimbo, and managed to drink my Maß without thinning it with rain.

Did get soaked upon my return, but I was on my bike and the rest seemed happy drinking underneath the semi-dry shelter of the chestnut trees.

And lots of fun was had by all. Will try and post a picture otmorrow of the table contstructions that appeared with the rain, next time I wont be to sceptical of showem and get building!

P

Sadly I couldn't make it - by the time SWMBO was home from work and we had eaten dinner the rain had already arrived

And when it rains, what do people do?? Build beer garden shelters...

apologies to showem who I "dissed" when she suggested this. Next time...

P

Apology accepted. Listen to your beer garden elders next time!

Felt a bit delicate this morning!

Still, was all good!

cool architecture - u guys are real experts -´this is "hard core beergardening"
