The link from UM is 26.09.2007!!! Cata1yst - Okay fully recovered now from last night in Basel + wingman is in attendance so all is good ;-)
Oh dear I was there...What stays in the Talacker stays in the Talacker, erm sort of.. 
Quote from that night (DaveA) All is okay then! That was pretty wild....I dont think the Talacker knew what hit it.
Someone pinched my jacket, but I did manage to acquire a nice "I luv Black Sheep" badge and an English forum business card, so thats OK...

Again from the same night.. Wednesday Night Drinks @ Talacker Bar Zurich He added that 105 pitchers of beer were sold that night, each of which contain 1.75 litres. Add the individual glasses sold plus the shots, mixed drinks etc. and it comes to, er, quite a lot of alcohol. We peaked at around 40 people at any one time, by my guesstimate.
105 Pitchers?!  |

Wow, this sounds really good! Unfortunately, I am not in Zurich yet (will move in a few months) but I think this is a good way to make some new friends  |

It is and it isn't a good way to make new friends: the problem is not having a good time with new faces - you certainly will if you arrive with a smile and perhaps a pitcher of beer - but the next morning trying to remember who said what, who was who and does anyone have any paracetamol as I've a stinking hangover... 
Vegas principles apply, all. Here are some sofas I've danced on; for the sake of discretion I'll mention no names of those who've joined me, hence the lack of people in the picture:

I need to start working on my beer consumption |

Who's the Funny with the tags on this thread?  It is NOT a swingers club. Cross dressers very welcome, though. Saying that, they do have 'Male Curry' on today's menu at the Talacker...

The rioja's rather good.
