Fwd: June English Stammtisch. :-) This Thursday 12th June!


Subject: FW: June English Stammtisch. :-) This Thursday 12th June!

 

Hi all! J

 

How are you? I hope you're all well and surviving this hot weather we're having?!… ;-)

 

Firstly, I have to say - I am so terribly sorry about sending this email out to you so late… Secondly, there is a very good reason for it! But to cut a very long story short, I had huge problems with my laptop last week! It crashed!... Just 5 days before I was trying to finish a very, very important piece of coursework – my final piece!!... I only had a few days left after that, to get the work sent in/uploaded online, ready for the deadline! – I have to say, I actually think that was perhaps one of the worst weeks of my life so far! … Then, during my laptop crashing, I lost all my programs – consequently Microsoft Office, and therefore, I also lost all of my Stammtisch email addresses (including those from my students as well)!.. I'm still in the process of trying to retrieve them at the moment though too, so this email is only getting sent out to address I still have access to! I very much hope I will be able to get all my contacts back again, as if not, it will be a rather big problem and also of course, a really great shame…

 

Anyway, the details of our next meet-up are as follows. (It's this Thursday though! So I'm so sorry if this is too short notice for you, and you already have plans. I really hope a good amount of people will still be able to make it!)… ;-)

 

For those who got my email last month, and/or came along, we will be doing exactly the same things as last month. So that's as follows:

 

Softball – from 6:30-8pm, at Friedrichsau Park in Ulm… In a grassy area, next to the Festplatz (where they have Ulmer Zelt/the French village, etc)…

(People playing softball, will then join those at the restaurant, after the game has finished).

 

Hundkomödie Pizzeria/Beer Garden – tables booked from 7pm, (for those who don't join the softball game) - also in Friedrichsau, Ulm:

(N.B.: I have booked the tables outside, under the roof (inside the tent). Therefore, in the event of rain, we will still be nice and protected! J It should also be quieter there, than it was inside last month).

 

Here is a link to the google maps location, showing where we will be playing the softball game - Point A, and where the restaurant is - Point B:

My mobile phone number is in my signature, at the bottom of this email. So please just call me if you get lost, and can't find us! ;-)

 

Don't forget, you are also of course more than welcome to just come and watch the softball game if you like. (You don't have to play if you don't want to. Even though it is really good fun!) ;-) We have a fully qualified coach (George) there, plus other players who can also help you out with the rules if you've never played before. J

 

I really hope you'll be able to make it! Please let me know if you do plan to come along, and also inform me if you're bringing anyone extra along with you! Thank you so much! J

 

Have a nice few days/weeks, and hopefully see you on Thursday evening! (If not, hopefully in July instead!)…

 

Take care.

 

All the best,

Sarah
