i am gonna be all by myself drinking (water hehee)! and i will delete my account here!!!

don´t make me be a team by myself! i won´t share my bottle of baileys!!

YES!! i just got notice that DEEVA100 will be there plus the crazy biggrin.gif American who had no internet till lately (can´t think of the TTname and don´t know if i am allowed to say real names here)!

tennisplyr you were gonna come! Now you will have to if you read this in time!!

that is a team! YES!

See ya!!
1tennisplyr
I decided to spend quality time with the laundry machines instead :-D ... Sorry I couldn't make it.
PigHoover
Wow! After such an impassioned plea, I'll be there next week! Along with Ferkel, JodieJo, Marissa, 1Tennisplyr, Diva100...oder?!?!
Then I guess it's drinks afterwards (hope everyone drinks Baileys...lots of it)...at 'Olives' place...to get the Festive Season underway... biggrin.gif
ferkel
Hmmm, well you guilted me into it... and was it really worth it...

Representative of our performance:

Q - Who founded John Deere?
A - John Deere.

But of course, we didn't write that!
Guzey
I had to work sad.gif i would have really liked to go

i heard about charles deere and the gazelle! lol! out of curiosity, what's the topic for next week?
DEEVA100
Topic for next week is Asia. I am glad to see that more people have said that they are coming. No cancellations allowed!!!

But we do miss sunstriped. Happy Thanks Giving on that note!!!

But I am starting to believe that Florida bound is right and that I am not a lucky charm at all cause since I started joining you guys we haven't won once!!! And last time there was a bottle of something else and not Baileys again. So we would have had a little variation. :-(
FloridaBound
I definitely think that we will win the bottle of (hopefully not Baileys) next week! It looks like we will have many TT'ers next week, but don't worry Sunstriped, you will be there in spirit with us as well! I hope you are having a great Thanksgiving Holiday back at home!
Chezza
Hi
I (plus 1) would like to be there as well, but what is the status with the drinks in Heidelberg? Is that still on, I cannot see any thread in that topic - has the quiz night taken over or are there 2 events next week?
I can only make either Tue or Wed - not both, unless we change the drinks night to Thursday!
cheers
sunstriped
i know, i know, it's just not the same without me biggrin.gif thanks though, i did have a nice thanksgiving - probably helped by the fact that there was no baileys in sight!

asia?! a whole continent is a bit much to study for a pub quiz! but since it's something other than baileys you guys are gonna have to do your homework!

don't listen to FB, deeva! our particular team might not have won the first time you came but our table did so you can't be a bad luck charm!

I think that we lost our sunstriped lucky charm... and our music-savvy friend was not there so we bombed out on those!

As for HD meeting, I think we should meet... so is anyone up for Wednesday Evening in HD?

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

...what is the status with the drinks in Heidelberg? ...

i think most people like the quiz night, so that is sort of a regular event now and since it is always Tuesdays, it might be good to put the general meet-up on another day. it does not substitute for the general get-together. but it would kind of suck to split the low-TT Rhein Neckar membership by competing events.
i don´t like olives
hey DEEVA it is not your fault!! dont listen to FB!! he just wants to cover the fact that it could be him who makes us not win! laugh.gif

sunstriped not being there does not help!! that is for sure! and our music expert (actually she is really good in all kinda fields) being not there didnt help either!

anywho i might make it to the quiz on tuesday but i wont make it two nights.

so who will be there on tues???

hope to see tons of people!! no laundry day or other excuses!!
PigHoover
Hi all...I'll be in Murphys for next Tuesday...I can speak a little Indonesian, maybe there'll be a question on that!? I won't be able to get there early so please save a space for me (and my big appetite).

Re: meet ups...I think it's a good idea to have it on another night...Wed or Thurs suit me fine...

See you next week smile.gif
FloridaBound
Definitely count me in for Tuesday!
JodieJo
hey guys!

Unless my boss locks me in the office i should be there on tues.
Guzey
so is anyone going this tuesday the 27th ?
1tennisplyr
I should be able to make it tomorrow...
JodieJo
Guzey look above! tongue.gif
bosveldboer
Hi there. I am a South African living in Viernheim and would like to meet up with some other english speaking expats. Is there space for one more at the pub quiz tomorrow night?
1tennisplyr
@Bosveldboer - Sure - there's always room for one more at the pub quiz.

As I understand it, here's how things seem to be standing

Fortnightly TT meet: Heidelberg @ undecided location:
--------------------------------------------------------------
Ommthree: Tue/Wed/Thur (?)
Chezza +1: Tue
Ferkel: Wed
1tennisplyr: Tue/Fri (?)

Mannheim @ Murphy's, Tue (27):
--------------------------------------
Ommthree (?)
JodieJo
Ferkel
Guzey
FloridaBound
PigHoover
I Don't Like Olives
Deeva100
bosveldboer
sunstriped (?)
1tennisplyr (?)

-------------
I'm sure I may have missed someone or got something wrong... anyway, who's doing what then?
PigHoover
Looks like you've got it sussed 1tennisplyr...and I will be going along to Murphys and looking to join a team that doesn't mind having a 'filler' (ie. don't expect too many correct answers from me). Hope to see you all there!!!
Chezza...unless we meet at the next Mannheim/Heidelberg gettogether, then I'll see you in the new year at the book club smile.gif
JodieJo
sorry guys i'm not gonna make either this week.

Just got home and i'm way to tried to answer questions.

have fun though.
ferkel
So, this time we one Jamesons...

Did anyone catch the Losers round subject for next week?
bosveldboer
Anyone interested on going on a wine tour to the Weinstrasse on Saturday this weekend? It will be serious stuff, with a whole lot of gargling and spitting going on smile.gif.
i don´t like olives
we also won magnets!!!ehehee

the topic is medical expressions (my specialty laugh.gif )
1tennisplyr
So Ferkel and her team won? I think I'm going to be on Ferkel's team the next time ;-)
N-ski
The quiz was lots of fun. I'm glad I finally made it out to meet some of you lot. I shall try and lurk less and er, post more:-)

So, is a Heidelberg night out on the cards?
ferkel
Bosveldboer - I don't think I'll make the wine tour... there are several things that I want to or have to do this weekend... sorry!

1tennisplyr - I told you, we had "the music"! Music and popular culture are not strong points for me!

N-Ski - So we aren't axe murderers then wink.gif I hope that one day next week we can make it to HD!

I don't like olives - wasn't there enough medical jargon this week or something? The only medical expression I know are stat and seriously... any guesses what show I watch?
1tennisplyr
@bosveldboer - I can make the wine tour if you have a plan as to where we want to meet up. Let me know.
N-ski

As if I'd ever accuse anyone of being axe murders. Really! *looks sheepish*

Please let me know if there is any Heidelberg action going down next week. Will be there with bells on:-)
DEEVA100
Is anybody actually going tonight?
PigHoover
Sorry, but I won't be coming tonight. Will make it on Wednesday though for the Weihnachtsmarkt. Good luck...another bottle of Baileys is alight by me.
ferkel
I'm 50-50... depends if I finish something off before then...
FloridaBound
Is anyone planning to go tonight to the quiz?
DEEVA100
Why do you always repeat everything I have to say FB!!! You are such a parrot!!! lol
i don´t like olives
hey my darlings i wont be able to make it! sorry!! i hope yall have a great time and sunstriped and i will see you again in january!!
DEEVA100
Looks as if nobody is going so I will miss out on this one also.
FloridaBound
Not wanting to sound like a Parrot (as mentioned in an earlier post), but I too will not be able to make it to the quiz tonight. For those that are going, Good Luck!

I don't like Olives- I hope you have a wonderful time in the U.S. for the holidays! Since I probably will not see you before you leave, I hope you have a Merry Christmas & Happy New Year. Please tell Sunstripe the same! Looking forward to seeing both of you after the holidays!
i don´t like olives
FB the same to you!! Have a fabulous Christmas all of you!! and sunstriped will read this herself i am sure biggrin.gif and i know that i can speak for both of us and say that we are looking forward to seing all of you again after the holidays!!

Have a great time everybody!!!
ferkel
I-love-Olives-and-want-them-in-my-christmas-stocking: When do you leave for the US?
1tennisplyr
It appears that when it rains, it pours. I guess I'm not going either tonight then... Merry X-mas and a holiday season to all. I'll be back in Germany in Jan., so I hope to see some of you then - perhaps at Murphys or in Heidelberg. Cheers.
bosveldboer
Enjoy your holiday and Xmas 1tennisplyr, and SA´s sunny weather!
ferkel
Anyone up for the quiz this week?

Anyone know what the special subject (loser's round) is?

If other people are going then I will too!
ferkel
I just started a new topic for the 11th December pub quiz... anyone up for it?
N-ski
I am:-)
AshleyM

bosveldboer
