17.08.2007 to 18.08.2007 20:30 to 02:00
*The times shown may change, depending on DST settings
City/Town: Zurich
Event Type: Drinks/Bar
Meeting Point: The Cana Bar, Niederdorfstrasse 40

After two polls and a long thread of discussion, its time for the return leg of the great Basel/Zurich cultural exchange (pub crawl).

I do suggest the 19.07 from Basel, which gets into Zurich at 19.58.
Getting back the trains become less frequent, but I guess it all depends on what we end up doing.. Which I'll leave the the kind folks from Zurich to decide.

Update: Due to a slight cock-up, all the RSVP's have been erased.
It appears that this happened because I changed the meet up point and time .

So please re-RSVP.

Re: Basel pub expedition to Zurich

I missed the previous thread. Can you enlighten me?

Is it a load of people from Basel coming up to Zurich, or is it a return trip taking in both cities?

I'd like to come and may bring a guest or two, but I'd like to have some kind of idea as to what I might be signing myself up for (I like to live dangerously, but not that dangerously...).

kfc.

Heh, this is still undecided.

As I've heard no complaints or alternatives then I suggest the 19.07 train (for Basel people). We can meet the rest of you in a pub in Zurich, any suggestions?

Ric, just make a pub suggestion and thats it. It doesn't matter where, but right now people are confused if the event is even taking place cos everything is too vague.

I would suggest, amend the invite, include a time and a pub to meet. Don't make it a democracy.. its your invite... build it and they will come.

Re: Basel pub expedition to Zurich

How about CANA BAR.... just cos it seems to be the subject of a turf war between Geneva and Zurich at the moment.

So lets throw Basel into the mix.

Everyone bring a blade!!

Obviously you wouldn't have caught me packing. Was just trying to encourage the Basel and Geneva crews to pack so they get the blame.

I am wading in with the handy ashtray.

Bah.. surely your scars have healed by now. That's what you get for taking us to a karoke night.

(Note: this was an accident, I don't usually make a habit of using my kung fu on the ladies. Mimi is the occasional exception).

Re: Basel pub expedition to Zurich

On my mate's stag do he managed to do the head bopping thing a bit to much when he was dancing with a girl.... smashed her nose.. never seen so much blood.

Made for a good speech on the Wedding day:

"Honey, this is what happens to girls that try and tempt me away from you."

Ahh the scouse choice of tool, known in bars throughout Merseyside. Saying that no ashtrays in bars in the UK now

Re: Basel pub expedition to Zurich

Ok, so I changed the meeting point to Cana Bar @ 8.30 and it seems to have erased who's attending .

I had no idea that this would happen so its time for everyone to sign up again. Sorry! At least the details of the event should be alot clearer now.
