City/Town: Lausanne
Event Type: Drinks/Bar
Meeting Point: King Size Pub, Rue du Port-Franc 16

Time for another social event in Lausanne! Thursday seems to be a pretty good night for people and it doesn't conflict with the Champions League soccer next week, so let's do it then: April 26th, '07, starting at about 8:00pm.

We'll do it at the King Size Pub again, which is in the 'Flon' region of Lausanne. Here's a link to a map and the pub's own website. It's a very short walk from the Flon metro station, the Bel Air or St Francois bus stops, and not too far from the SBB station.

We'll try to remember to bring HeatherM's moose (the one in her avatar, see this thread) which we'll keep in as obvious place as possible so that new people can find us. However, we may forget to bring him (we have done so in the past), so if you can't find him then look for the people drinking from the proper-sized beer glasses rather than the piddly things that the locals prefer.

Remember that everyone is invited, they do not need to be members of this forum - please feel free to bring along partners, friends or colleagues.
RSVP'd Yes: 13 (9 members and 4 guests)
  • ChrisW - Should Gordon the moose be counted as a guest?
  • HeatherM - I missed the last one, so I'm not missing this one, that's for sure!
  • SamCole + 1 guest - I will of course be there and I'm looking forward to it
  • LoyalRoyal + 1 guest - Go on...you've twisted my arm. The other half will be coming too. Cheers for organising.
  • SamC - Count me in ...
  • MrWhereItsAt - For some reason my flat depresses me, need to get out - see you then!
  • MaryT + 1 guest - Yes, pay day on the 26th, so we can't miss this one!!
  • Beanum - Sounds like a plan!
  • squirrel + 1 guest
RSVP'd Maybe: 3 (3 members and No guests)
RSVP sign-ups for this event are now closed.

I'll try and make that!
I'll have to check with the boss first though
Arrived on Monday and fed up sitting in the bar on my own.

You'll recognise me from my avatar!

Cheers
Chris

To the top! Just bumping this up so that people remember about tonight, and to advertise it to anyone who isn't already aware of the event.

Thanks for bumping it up guys. Nearly forgot about it. Should be able to make this event and I am sure I can even convince my other half to come out for a beer.
Catch you later.

Thanks to everyone who came out last night and made it our best attended event yet, with about 20-25 people during the evening.

Raj suggested a salsa place for the next event in a couple of weeks - anyone else got any ideas/opinions?

Yep, another very successful night. Great turnout.

A salsa place sounds good. Another possibility, if the weather is good, is to have a BBQ/picnic + beer/wine near one of the beaches at Vidy. Might make a nice change from being indoors?

Sound great...BBQ at the beach with beer...can't go wrong with that. But it has to be sat or sun noon. Also... Mary suggested the next outing to be on friday so that people can stay longer and turn out might even bigger.
Any ideas!!!
Agree with Chris, it was a great turn out and we all had a BLAST..Way to go guys

It was good to see everyone last night. Great turn out!

I like the idea of a BBQ on a Sunday afternoon by the lake, or for an alternative week night venue we could try Tacos Bar for beer, pool & mexican food (it is just around the corner from where we were last night) http://www.tacos-bar.ch/

Have a great weekend,
Katy

Well, sorry I've been gone for nearly 4 weeks and missed some events. But, it's good to see things are still going on and even growing!
I was looking for an event this Thursday, but I guess it's the off-week. Hope to see you all soon.

I just posted a thread (link to thread) announcing that we'll repeat this event on Thursday May 10th, with hopefully a BBQ in two weekends (May 20). I hope that everyone's wishes are incorporated in there somewhere.
