Hey guys! I hope things in Munich are going well. New York is good! I now have one of those 9-to-5 job-things, a teeny shoe box in the city (it's a good thing I like shoes) and I think my soul has remained intact, though I'm still waiting to hear back on that one.

I will be back in Munich in April for a week and was wondering if anyone wants to get together for drinks, maybe on April 10 or 11? Place is to be decided, I'm thinking beer garden, but will let you know for sure once I become realistic about April weather in Munich and pick an indoors venue.

I miss you guys a lot and hope to see some of you oldies/newbies/groupies around! Suggestions/comments/heckling welcome.

Breens

A beer garden in April? You're coming in full antarctic gear?

woof.

Glad you found a job, I remember your post from a while ago that you were getting a bit discouraged.

Yay, Breens's back! Looking forward to meeting up for a drink. I say we start thinking about the location a bit closer to the date though, see what's the weather's got in store for us before we decide?
PS: upoading the pics of your last visit right now

LOL. Well, in my defense, someone told me that they were at the Chinese Tower on a Sunday a few weeks back. So you never know.

Oooh thanks Hon

Hey guys! So I was thinking Saturday for drinks. Some say it will get warmer after Wednesday and others say it will will...rain. So I think tentatively we should pick a spot in case it rains, and its warm we can go to a beergarden-y place.

So here are the details:

Saturday
April 12
Kilians
19:30

I couldn't think of a place other than Kilians, so if anyone has a better idea please let me know!

I hope you guys can make it then. The only times I can do it on Thursday and Friday is on the late night (which I am totally down for btw, if anyone wants to hang out) so Saturday it is.

Hope to see y'all there! Everyone is welcome, I love meeting new (and old) people.

Sounds good to me, will be great to catch up!

Saturday it is! Looking forward to seeing you again, Chewing Gum.

I'll be there too.

Hey guys,

As Kilians is impossibly full on weekends, have decided to change the venue to Der Pschorr. I will reserve the upstairs section for us.

Ooooh I'm very excited now .

What would be really awesome is if the magical Toytown fairies changed my post up there so it doesn't say Kilians anymore...

Count me+1 in for Der Pschorr.

Good choice BG, Der Pschorr will be a lot better than Kilians, it can accommodate bigger crowds no problem. I'll definitely be there!

Reservation has been made for the balcony upstairs...

oh my, this is very tempting - haven't seen mlle grande pomme in ages! And since you'll be on the same continent...

Don't tease me!

Btw mlle Grande Pomme is awesome. Love it!!!

If I can be there. I will be there.

I'll be there...sans dutchman as he will still be in Malaysia (though I know he is bummed to miss it!).

I know from a few people who haven't signed up - you know who you are peeps... - that they'll definitely be coming so I hope you made a big enough reservation BG!

JJ, the dog and I will be there as well!

Yippie! I had seen you lurking and was hoping you would come down "for one"!

Hi BG! As I missed you're last visit I'll be sure to drop by and say hello, would love to hear you're NY news.

Awesome! I need to call tomorrow and confirm how many we will be...do you guys think it's more like 20 or 30?

Go for 30, some lurkers are bound to turn up

As we missed the last one we will come by this time around. Looking forward to seeing you again

Coolio, I'll let them know! I hope they won't make a fuss.

I'll try to make it too.

BG, if you have any problem with the reservation ask to speak to Nussi and tell him it's related to the English speaking crowd that he knows.

. . . To which Nussi will reply, "We're closed that day" and hang up.

Bubble Gum , can I come + 1 ? I am the baldy headed pissed up paddy on bus 53 every morn...remember?

The + 1 is the 'iconic' Lurker Mark!!! yes he does exist...He was seen once in Taj Mahal.
He dont post on TT.

THANKS

Once...bit of an understatement methinks Nice of you to sign him up "officially"...he'll be losing his street cred though if he's expected at events

@bald eagle: Of course!!! Everyone one is welcome, the more the merrier .

I just called and no fuss was made .

See y'all tomorrow!!!

Jersey Boy and I will be along at some point! Glad things are going well for you now in NYC.

I've gotta birthday party to go to - but suspect it will be a snoozer. Hope to join up later.

Thanks guys, I had a lovely time. I made it safely back to NY last night and am back at work today. I had some great conversations with people on Saturday that kind of put what I am doing in perspective, and I am not exaggerating when I say it made a difference to the way I feel and perceive NY. So thanks for that. And also for the tequila shots. They helped with perceptions of a different sort.

Love
BG
