Is that the Irish Bar that is (or at least was) opposite a downstairs bar called the Nautilus? Mind you, I am talking about the early eighties now.

A CUK euro bash. Not a bad idea.

I can do most weekends in the new year.

Ahhh, Frankfurt

Darmstadt

I'm working in Münster and Köln at the moment but hope to be in Münster and Frankfurt next year however anywhere is good for me. Maybe we should get some of the cloggies as well, then Köln would be quite central...

If we have the arrangement in January it is probably easier to book a table somewhere anyway.

I am not against doing it in January.

Who else is in Germany?

Hmm, weekends are a bit booked up till Christmas. I don't think I can do a big trek on a school night, probably an 1hr from Munich tops. Drink driving isn't a problem as I don't have a car.

How far is Nurnberg? That's about halfway.

one day Tommy one day

was in FaM two weekends ago for the Weinachts Markt and annual Christmas shopping trip with the Mrs

it was clear to see 'the crisis' is not visible in FaM, the shops were packed Peek and Kloppenburg and Pohland and Karstadt etc and the tills were ringing

we got into the spirit too and over spent

ah well there we are that's Christmas

down on the Romer the Christmas market was very nice

is LB still there ?

Milan.

I am in Frankfurt

But the location should perhaps be based on where people are or where we can crash at someones house AndyW style as i don't think drink driving is good with all the snow.
