Badminton @ RSC Nymphenburg

only 15 pics from the last game

someone should use the camera when I am playing!

I had fun playing last night.

@Ume: nice pics

@ellewood: I hope your wound is getting better. . Just to make you feel better my aching factor is 2.

Have a nice Halloween weekend everyone. I hope to see you again.

i can't access the pics!

Had a great workout last night, but aching factor of only 1. Guess i didnt work hard enough. Im in for 2hrs next week thu.
Thanks for the lift home ellewood, much appreciated.
and thanks to Ravski for taking the time to teach me to play,
Hope to see u guys next week

Thanks Topsy (you're the "Tops"-y) for getting everything together... yeah, my body should hurt more than it does (though I didn't get beamed in the arm by one of Ravski's 100km/hour smashes ).

I'm in for 2 next week.

Hope the beers were good... bummer I was "summoned" (refer to dating Germans thread... to lazy to post the link)

it was good fun - don't ache too much but didn't play for 2 hours like the hard-core ultra fit players
l bagsy Ravski to be on my team next week please

@ellewood - maybe you should change your username to be 'lucky'?

@ billybob - no way!! you and Ravski both on a team would be unfair to the rest of us! you two and your super athletic smashes

hey Topsy!

Just to make sure I do not miss out on the action. Count me in for next week already!

Cheers!

Hi Sai, nice to see you on Toytown
Ume told us about your knee - I hope you get better soon, maybe you will be able to join us again before the end of the year. It would be great to have you back
See you soon, hopefully
Topsy

xargy

@ ravski

Loved it! Definitely count me in for next week.

Hi everyone,

can you let me know who is in for next week, Nov 4th? We've got plenty of courts booked, so there should be room for everyone who wants to play.

Reserve here...

TT Badminton Reservations

...and specify in the comments whether you want the full two hours 7-9pm or just the one hour 8-9pm.

Topsy

count me in!

Cheers!
xargy

me too. 7 to 9

7-9 for me too.

Yes. 7-9pm, full 2 hours of suffering.

Slap me in for 2 hours, despite a sore throat.

Great Topsy. good to see the reservation page for badminton
But it says "Make your confirmation here before 5pm on the Thursday." Should be Tuesday.

for those who haven't seen, we've a new registration page (copying the curry boys )
the deadline is Wednesday noon, but it would be great if could try to register by Tuesday evening, so we have it a little bit easier managing the court bookings etc
there are 9 of us already this week, so it should be good fun
Topsy

Guys, I am not going to be 100%. Be gentle with me.

haha. fat chance ravski - bring your bandages

Hey guys,

I do not have a racquet yet? Is there usually enough or should I definitely buy one this week?

Also, is someone up for meeting at the tram stop? I hav enever been to this place.

Cheers!
xargy

it's no problem to hire a racket there.

We can meet at the tramstop at 6.30pm, no problem.
Get the 16 or 17 from Hauptbahnhof, and get off at Steubenplatz. Try not to be late, the weather is turning a bit chilly. thnx

i will be part taking next week, so you have been forewarned.

Hey Topsy..thanx! You da best!

See you Thursday @6:30. Don't worry, would not let you freeze your butt

Cheers!
xargy

Guys I signed up cuz I want to play and didn't wanna lose my place. Unfortunately I have an ear infection thats bothering me. I will let you know tomorrow if I can make it so that someone else can take my place in case I can't.

ok, fab - hope you get better Rootsie

I missed out on a few posts:

@Billybob: It would be great to play with you in badminton. Not sure if we can handle Ellewoods top spin lob or Topsy dinky drops.

@Chewy, what is it about you and passing the shuttle back to the opponent at 150km per hour. Is there some form of pumped up aggression we are missing.

@Ellewood: I dont think you need to learn how to smash to inflict an injury. Just a wack with your ... should do. Just play like Ume, he ducks.

@Jakoo: I am so hoping that I dont hit you, espeically when you tower over the net. Being bashed by two women will be too much.

well, if ravski and billybob are a team, then I'm not playing against you
flippin 'eck, give the rest of us a chance!!!

I do not like the sound of it... I have not played badminton more than 10 times in my whole life!

xargy

@xargon: it OK, we are just teasing each other. The fact that we have a 7ft blue eyed player in the team should not make a difference, unless your Topsy.

@ravski - 7 feet huh? He better be on my team!

xargy

will come along this week for 2 hours of punishment.

I will bring my spare racquet along if anyone wants to borrow it.

Hi Archie, Register yourself on TT Badminton Reservations link on the previous page.

@Ravski - did it already...

great! a newbie
are you going to meet up at the tramstop at 6.30pm, Archie?
cheers
Topsy

Will meet you at the RSC.
Its not far from where I live, I've been there quite often.

hey Archie!

Get the racquet man! I can save on 2 bucks

Cheers!
xargy

cool
we have the courts upstairs, we'll probably be on three of the four courts from 7-8pm
see you tomorrow

@xargon - its yours for the night...

awesome man. Thanx a ton!

See ya tomorrow!

Xargon

OK - I just had to finally confirm the courts. We've got 4 courts from 8-9pm (that's the whole of upstairs) for 14 players and 3 courts from 7-8pm for 11 or 12 players.

And nobody can cancel!

If anyone feels the sudden desire to play badminton overtake them, then post on here tonight or tomorrow, we'll probably still have room for you.

After having the last 1.5 days of work due to illness common sense is telling me not to play. Is there anyone that wants to take my place? (just a cheapskate, and dont wanna pay and not play)!

Hi ,are there any last minute takers for badders so that we have a nice number again?
The courts are booked from 7-9pm, but you can just play for one hour if you want

billybob

what about ur o2 people?

Topsy, as I told you yesterday I will come at 8. I am not sure how well I can play because of my ear but I will try.

ok, so according to the reservation page there is 11, (minus me, + rootsherbal) gets us back to 11. so we need 1 more to make 12.
any takers?
