Fortnightly drinks in Heidelberg and Mannheim

is anyone else interested?

post what day is best for you, and where do we want to go? Vapiano?

Thursday is better for me but i can do either day, just think Thursday might be quieter.

Is anyone interested in meeting up somewhere today and watching the football matches ?

For my part I might make what ever you organize, but I do not want to commit to anything this week as I have quite alot on. So I will just play it by ear and decide last minute. Sorry to be crap

I get the feeling a lot of people are busy this week, or hungover from fasching

we have no time on friday at all and thursday isn't too good for us either. we might be able to make it but we couldn't stay long.

vapiano sounds interesting though! it seems like a cool place to check out.

If people are interested in tonight let me know and i'll try and get a table.

PM or if its before 5pm email me jodie.gleave@roche.com

we can't make it tonight after all. what about postponing it til next week?

i can't make it either now, so next week maybe on the usual tues sounds good to me.

sounds good to me too!

Well...make it 3. See you on Tuesday.
By the way, does anyone know the topic for next week (did anyone go this past Tuesday?)?

Florida Bound, i don't think any one went thats why i can't post a topic on the thread, but i'm sure we'll do fine without knowing it.

Hey Guys!

a last minute decision has been made me, ferkel and N-ski are meeting tonight in Stars if anyone else wants to come along.

the more the merrier.

Is anything going on this weekend, meetup wise?

Hey ommthree. Four of us will be hopping around Mannheim tonight. We don't know what we're doing, however, because we live in the vinyards. Would be great if you joined in though. (Especially if you can point us in a direction.)

Sorry, I only just saw your post. Hope you had a good time!

Yeah, we had a great time... until we had to run to catch the damn train home. 1:16 a.m. to 5:54 a.m. is too long a break between trains. We"re going to start a letter-writing campaign to Die Bahn. 3:30 a.m. sounds about right. Wish us luck.

Glad you had fun, though that journey home sounds nightmare... and sorry for not getting back to you BTW.

I propose meeting for nibbles and a few pints on Saturday night in HD.

So, how about 7.30pm in Merlin (http://www.gastroturm.de/merlin/index.html) - it is about 1/2 way between the mainstation and Bismarckplatz. I know it is early, but I wasn't planning to make it a really late night!

If people are interested then I can even book a table - but I need a rough idea of numbers by Friday.

Tell me what you think!

@ferkel --> I just got your message - saturday or sunday? Count me in.

EDIT: Ok, I just looked at the header. Saturday at 7:30pm - I'm there.

Saturday... not a school night

I will be there too!

Mr. A was informed that as it is my birthday weekend he is obligated to take me out whether he wants to or not.

I haven't been to this place yet and you guys know I could get lost in a paper sack! I may need to be guided in so keep your phones on the table!

(For anyone who wants to join me & Mr. A around 6:00 @ Cedars for some lebonese food is more than welcome!)

Since there aren't many replies here I won't book but I will aim to be at merlin at some point in the evening though probably not 7.30pm... so get in touch with me if you want more a precise idea.

F

I was planning to be there by 7:30pm this evening... It'd be nice if *somebody* gets there by 7:30pm, since I'm travelling 1.5+ hours to get there!

OR.. perhaps we could all join the Ashleys @ Cedars for food and then head to Merlin for drinks?

sorry guys just got back from Switzerland so won't make it tonight. might be up for Tuesday if anyone goes

Hey!

Yep, Me & Mr. A are heading out and should be at Cedars around 6:30 ish. Since it is usually crowded downstairs we will be upstairs somewhere.

Hey all, sorry for this last minute change on my part, but it looks like I won't be able to make it this evening... I wasn't aware how exhausted I was, till I dozed off at the computer

Anyhoo, Happy birthday Ashley and hope you have a fine time this evening. Hope everyone else has a schoenen Abend und ein schoenes Wochenende noch

Is anyone up for celebrating Paddys day at O'reillys in Mannheim.

they have live music on the monday night (Pop/Rock) so i reckon a mixture of all ages of music!!

st patricks day yikes...

I'll be there, can't miss the opportunity to watch shenanigans

Ok the crash team is ready now how do i bring the heidelberg / Mannheim section back to life???

Anyone got any ideas? Know of any cool events in Heidelberg or Mannheim?
or just wants to arrange a dinner/drinks together somewhere?

Us Mannheimers haven't done much travelling lately, i think we should give the heidelbergers a night off the train and OEG.

Hey Guys!

Is anyone up for meeting up on friday in Heidelberg? Early evening i.e 7/8 going for a few beers and maybe something to eat?

anyone have any suggestions where to go? Pref near HBF for those who are coming from further away!

Jodiejo

Do you mean this coming Friday? I'm up for it unless something else comes up

yep the 25th of April, trying to get this old thing going again

I agree with you, we should try to get the Heidelbergs involved again. Sorry, this weekend in UK

Sounds good to me.

For somewhere near to the Hbf for the non-HDers, how about Merlin (Bergheimer Str. 85, 69115 Heidelberg, Germany, +49 6221 657856‎)?

that sounds good if no Heidelbergers have any better ideas!

Hey that would be great! Merlin or Thanner would be good. Thanner is just on the next corner from Merlin.

Hey BHC,

what kinda place is Thanner?

Thanner is cool but I have already been there and felt like trying somewhere different - that was my only reason for suggesting Merlin

thats cool i have no idea about either of them

Thanne is your basic local watering hole while Merlin is more on the chic side. Both are good. There's also Maximo which is also about a 10min walk form the Hbf. For food, Thanne is better. Speaking of food there's also the Schwarzer Peter which is also close and has excellent food.

Merlin/ Thanner/ Black Peter - I haven't been to either of 'em... Someone make an executive decision as to a time and place and I'll be there

yeah i think some needs to book a table maybe, Ommthree also said be might come along.

For me i'd prefer earlier around 7.30/8 then we have to time to relax before rushing for trains back. Plus for my other half he can come direct from work in Leon-Rot and doesn't have to come to Mannheim first.

Hi there, sorry I can't come along this time. Just another suggestion to put into the pot. I quite like Zeiglers/Billy Blues which you can get to quickly on the tram from the station, its straight next to Bizmark platz on Bergheimer strasse Food is excellent (and quite innovative) and they have a great range of cocktails, and if you fancy it, it has a separate disco there too. Pity the meet is not on a Monday as they have all you can eat Wings and Ribs.
Here is the link, check out the menu and there are good specials too on the board every day:

Billy Blues

Billy (haha, there is no connection here, purely a coincidence!)

Mind if I (+1) join you?

Of course we don't wren

So have we picked a spot and time yet...? or should I make the call?

sorry to be a bit of a drop out this week, but i don't think i'm gonna make it tonight.

too dead from the Morcheeba concert last night and lots of work this week.

Have fun though.

Morcheeba? Where was that? I'm so out of it out here in the sticks. I forget bands that have to use electricity still come through the area.

Won't be making it tonight. We're off to Spain! Add us to the "next time" list.

Time to get out the list then!
