20.02.2008 19:00 to 19:00
*The times shown may change, depending on DST settings
City/Town: Zurich
Event Type: Drinks/Bar
Meeting Point: Talacker Bar, Talacker


All welcome!

Come and meet the faces behind the names. Enjoy a few drinks, make new acquaintances!

Here's the map link: http://map.search.ch/8001-zuerich/talacker41

It's around the corner from Paddy Reilly's; staggering distance from Stauffacher, Paradeplatz, Bahnhofstrasse and, er, Kaufleuten.

Bar telephone: 044 211 2050
Trams 2 / 9 to Sihlstrasse.

There'll be an area reserved for us. If in doubt, ask the staff where the English Forum area is and you'll be fine. We're usually in the far back corner. There are often many of us in the bar and we're all, er, English speakers, so you'll have no difficulty finding us.

Most people come alone, so don't be shy of approaching

Looking forward to meeting you!

Wear a pink carnation so we know it's you, and we'll invite you into the group.

That's not fair! Blowfish, Woodsie will be wearing a Pink Carnation so you'll be able to recognise us.

That's more like it...

So you want me to be the first person in the group that people recognise? Do you want to scare everybody away before you have even met them Uncle?

Re: Midweek Drinks @ Talacker Bar, Zurich

Looking forward to celebrating Midweek on Wednesday; everyone is welcome to join and there'll be *new* beer, so I've been told.

There's another reason to cheer this week; turn up and find out

Does it have anything to do with stopping dreaming about marshmallows?

Re: Midweek Drinks @ Talacker Bar, Zurich

Terry's night in Zug should take priority and his event cannot be moved.

I think the next midweek drinks should be on a Thursday.

There I said it.

This is true, and it will become even more of a problem when he starts doing matinees, weddings and bar mitvahs.

Re: Midweek Drinks @ Talacker Bar, Zurich

Speed-dating?

I was in a small town in Alaska once, where the men were being autioned off for 24 hours in a charity drive to the last remaining single women; the chaps were doing alright - in their desperation - until one guy came on the stage and said in a clear baritone: "Hi. My name's Mike. I wear a size 16 shoe".

There'll be none of that tonight, thanks very much.

I read Talacker for the articles...

See ya later

Re: Midweek Drinks @ Talacker Bar, Zurich

I could probably come up with a few, more appropriate variants for your username too, but because I'm nice, I won't.
The following 2 users would like to thank saharanz for this useful post:
