22.07.2009 19:00 to 23:30
*The times shown may change, depending on DST settings
City/Town: Zurich
Event Type: Drinks/Bar
Meeting Point: Talacker Bar, Talacker 41

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

Here's the map link

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

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: they all speak English. We're usually in the far back corner, although with warm weather we'll also be loitering outside.

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.

See you there!

Re: Zurich Midweek Drinks, Talacker Bar

Uncle Max must be on an exotic beach somewhere, surrounded by gorgeous Vahine's and drinking yummy drinks (with paper umbrella's of course)... .

But, some of us are still in Züri enjoying the delights of what the city has to offer in the summer (no one is working right?) and an evening of drinks among friends is always a good idea!

Hope to see you there, I'll be the one with my feet in the fountain.

Haven't you heard of straws? Or do you just not use them to drink?

Re: Zurich Midweek Drinks, Talacker Bar

Just a little bump, to remind people as they plan their week ... definitely worth coming along and, with this many, you can hide in the crowd if you're a bit shy.

RD have you staked your claim? Or should this really be in the commercial section?

I can't wait to meet her. We can compare notes on the suffering you have inflicted upon us.
