Bodhi has won!   https://www.google.com/maps?ll=48.135616,11.542629&z=15&t=m&hl=en-US&gl=DE&mapclient=embed&cid=1390932206146957977   Reserved for four.  Go to  https://www.facebook.com/groups/MunichTranslators/   if you still want to sign up...

Planning continues -- join here to help vote on a location for June 13: https://www.facebook.com/groups/MunichTranslators/ 

As long as you've got an FB account, you can join the group and get invited to the meetup -- because it's very easy to invite an entire group, and as long as you haven't turned off Facebook emails, you'd get that.      Many TT groups have moved to Meetup, but Meetup's not free...

Hey all, let's see if this works better -- I've put up a poll for the next meetup over here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/MunichTranslators/ -- join up!  As soon as we have a date and location, I'll post it over here too.

I can currently make any of those June dates.   I'm working on solving the notification issue.  I haven't gotten any for ages myself.  Anybody else ever miss a notification?

Well yeah - that's why the village Maypoles are the thing to do. It's Labor Day, a federal holiday, and stuff is closed.  Some places they even have riots.

Heavens, it's been a year. Have you all moved to another platform perchance?  There's someone looking for someone to speak German with, of all things... 

1) Crusoe - all dates 2) Munichmon - March 26 & 29 are ideal, April 3 & 4 a maybe 3) Gen - all dates 4) 5)

That's what I've been doing for years and have wondered why it never worked out like it should. Stella's article above explains why it's not that simple.  I mean you still get an edible cake that's very nice, but it's not what it should be...
