Drinks meet up for 20-somethings in Cologne

Any ~20 year old Brits/English speakers in Cologne who would like to meet up sometime for drink/anything?

Came to Cologne 3 months ago, could do with meeting some people outside of work!

I know about the Bonn meetings, hoping to go to one sometime

Hi Antony.s,
and welcome to Cologne. I qualify as a 20something(just, only just) when were you thinking about going for a drink?

Any time next week I suppose!

Ok, how about Friday 11th Jan 20:30...?
Who's going to offer a location?

Ooooo! Can I come too please?! Been here since erm... June and I still don't know anyone! We could go to Jamesons... or just up the road from there is the Vic cocktail bar which has some seriously good stuff! We could do both! 20:30 sounds cool - should be able to make it, if not I won't be much later. Anyone have any other ideas? =)

Is there room for another little'n...I left my 20's a while ago, but I'm always up for shits n giggles...well, giggles anyway...I have only been here since Dec, so as they say 'I should get out more'...

As far as I'm concerned it's cool... but it's really antony.s thing so he should be the one making executive decisions! I actually wanted to bring my bf who is actually German and also no longer a 20something... antony...? Any objections? =)

No objections from me, more the merrier!

Location.. dot seems to have a plan, what's the nearest tram?

well I am alittle out of my 20's.. by like three years.. can I still join??

Already let Cota in so why not!

if we are going to jamisons the nearest tram is Friesenplatz

Great Friday 11th Jan 20:30@Jamesons (Freisenstrasse)!
Everyone is welcome regardless of age!

Yey! Looking forward to it =) Shall we all meet outside or something? Or will someone wear a funny hat so we know who to aim for?! Don't look at me - I may arrive slightly later! =D

I have to say Jason put out a box of mincemeat pies last night for our meet up and it was a Brilliant!!! sign for who was who!!! I will be there so let me know
Elaine

Well cota has told me about this! I think i can make it. Normally finish work around 19:30 on school nights not sure about weekends (the thing about being an au pair, hours vary!) Only here since friday so would love to meet people!

I could be late, depending on where Freisenstrasse is in relation to me! Please someone have a sign or something

Don't expect any more mince pies from me, 3.59 a box! Rip-off English Shop, rant rant...

How about I lay a copy of the Guardian on the table? Will get there punctual and try to find a big table and spread out last Saturdays Guardian?

Ohh jason.. but it was still a brilliant idea..

so the guardian it is...

I will see you on friday.. IF you see a red/black colored hair girl wandering confused that will be me...

Ahh the Gaurdian, one of the things i will miss! It being the cheapest Daily in IRELAND!!!

Okay I am half blind so be prepared for some to lean over people to try and see a paper on the table as I will be latish as I am only finishing here at 9!

Im sure I will still be there at nine reading the guardian waiting for you all to turn up anymore english speakers wanna join...?

Ever the optimist eh Englishman...fear not you will not be on your lonesome!

Shame, guess I`m too old for you guys

Too old...pah, the more the merrier I say, age is a state of mind...jeez, must be something in my tea!!

I would like to be with you. uh, any objections? cu

Not from me TK!! See you there!

To be honest, I think the ~20 something part failed and it's become another Whingers meet!

Ok, ok, I`ll just wait `till the next whingers meet-up

Thanks to you guys I had a Blast!!!

We too had a blast. Sorry we missed the second bar. We'll look forward to seeing those comparison photos of Chris's tv doppelgänger.

Elaine, how on earth did you post at 8:51am? If I didn't go to see a flat this morning I'd still be in bed!

Great time last night, thanks to everyone who came!

For anyone who saw the thread but didn't come along for whatever reason, I think we'll have another meet up in the not too distant future but not bother with mentioning any age range Letting the whingers in wasn't a bad idea

jellycabbage, here's the actor I swear is a spitting image of Chris


Tom Ward from BBC's Silent Witness

ahh you know work daaaahling.. I had to be teaching at the Butt crack of dawn.. I do not consider it up actually.. I simply have not crashed yet... I agree you should always let us "old" people come!!!

Thanks for the pictures Antony. I definitely see the resemblance.
-Kelly

last night was fantastic!

jaysus the resemblance between chris and that that actor is uncanny!

I was the token Gay and Irish guy at the meet-up and it was defintely best night out so far in Köln!

Were you gay?? and Irish? NO!! Hey you promised me a day of hanging and shopping My friend maybe some more dancing and music??

Definately girl! Will PM you there!!!

Now I know why Antony was asking if we had seen Silent Witness, ha ha ha

Yes, it wasn't one of those random drunk questions

Hey yall. I just joined the board because well, I only have German friends since I have moved to Cologne. I am 26 from Detroit Mi. in the US. Moved here about 4 months ago, and I really really miss not speaking like English text book.

I would love to meet up next week with a few people. Been to The Jameson pub you guys were at last night many times, great drunken times.
