Subject: July English Stammtisch - next Thursday 7th July!

 

Hi everyone! :-)

 

Please note: if you wish to be removed from this mailing list, please email me to let me know. Many thanks.

 

How are you? I hope you're all well and you've been enjoying all this lovely sunny weather we're having! J

 

The organiser of the foreign language group on Facebook and myself, have decided to join forces together for our next July Stammtisch. That's for both the softball game, and the restaurant afterwards. That's one reason why we will be going to Hundskomödie again for July, due to the fact we may need more space to accommodate more people. ;-)

 

The details for our next meet-up are as follows:

 

Date:             Thursday 7th July.

 

Time:             Softball game: from 6:30pm till approximately 8pm. (Then those playing/watching the game, will go on to the restaurant to join the others there who won't be playing/watching the game).

 

Restaurant: tables have been booked from 7pm onwards for those who don't wish to watch/play the softball game.

 

Where:         Softball game:       Friedrichsau Park, Ulm.

Location is the same as where we always previously played in the past. We play in the field close to the Festplatz (where the Volksfest, Französichedorf is, etc). There is also a lake nearby as well. For those who don't know exactly where we meet – check out this location below on Google Maps, and/or call me on my mobile if you get lost – 0171 385 1275.

Google maps location for the game: (The restaurant is where it says: Friedrichsau 7. And the other point on the map, close to the field, is where the softball game is held. Both locations are in Friedrichsau Park in Ulm, by the Danube river).

                        Restaurant:             Hundskomödie, Friedrichsau Park, Ulm.

                        Address:                   Friedrichsau 7, 89073 Ulm

                        Website:                   http://www.hundskomoedie.de/home.php

                        Phone:                      0731 94 58 414

Please note:

• If you wish to attend the softball game, don't worry if you can't make it as early as 6:30pm, it's still possible to join in if you arrive late. We usually start playing an actual game at about 7pm. The same thing applies for the meal at the restaurant. If you can't make 7pm, don't worry. Just arrive when you can.
• Please let me know if you'd like to take part in the softball game or not, when you reply to this email. I just need to know how many people are planning on coming for the numbers (– we need at least 20 people to play a proper game).
• The same thing goes for the meal at the restaurant, I need to know if you're coming, and if you're bringing anyone with you or not. This is very important for the booking and ensuring we have enough space (tables and chairs) for everyone!! ;-) Thank you!

 

I hope to see plenty of you there!

 

Thanks everyone.

 

Take care, enjoy the rest of your week and weekend! I'm off to Hamburg for the first time this weekend, to see Coldplay, live in concert. :-)

 

All my very best,

Sarah

Hello, hello

 

I hope you haven't had to pump water out of your basement after all the rain.

 

Let's meet for English conversation on June 16th - starting at 7 p.m.

 

at:    Dreikannen Historisches Brauhaus

        Hafenbad 31/1, 89073 Ulm

        www.dreikannen.de

 

According to reliable sources, (that means Heather) next week Thursday, June 16th, is a big soccer/football day.

Germany play their second match of the European cup (England play at 3pm, Germany against Poland at 9).

So - after refreshing beer and conversation, the soccer fans will probably want to move on to a sports bar at 9 pm.  The others can carry on with their conversations.

 

See you there

Heather and Dawn

Hi everyone! :-)

 

How are you? I hope you're all well and you've been enjoying all the May bank holidays we've had! ;-)

 

We had our first spontaneously organised softball game of this season last week, and the weather and grass conditions turned out to be perfect for it! We had the game as a second attempt for the previous one we'd had planned for May that sadly got cancelled due to such heavy rain. Due to popular demand, we are having our next Stammtisch on Friday evening again, as several people requested it. I hope this still means plenty of people will be able to join us…

 

The details for our next meet-up are as follows:

 

Date:             Friday 3rd June.

 

Time:             Softball game: from 6:30pm till approximately 8pm. (Then those playing/watching the game, will go on to the restaurant to join the others there who won't be playing/watching the game).

Hello Everyone

 

The next Stammtisch will be May 19th at Tanivera Pizza e Pasta

Winhofberg 7, 89073 Ulm

Starting at 7 p.m.

 

I'm sorry to say that your fearless leaders (that means Heather and myself) won't be able to be there.

We have appointed Dietmar as our replacement.  Have an enjoyable evening.

 

A question:  Would anyone be interested in practicing English conversation with a couple in Senden?  Please contact me if you're interested.

                     They are both very talkative and I know the man's English is at an intermediate level. 

 

All for this evening.

Our Stammtisch in May, will be our first softball game for this year! J

This is the first time I'm going to this restaurant with the Stammtisch group. I have been before myself though! I tested this restaurant out a little while ago. I went to check out the size of the place and to make sure there will be enough room for everyone! I also found out that the pizza is very good, and the staff are friendly too. Hence why I decided to make a booking for us there and then. ;-)

I hope to see plenty of you there!

 

Thanks everyone.

 

Take care and enjoy the rest of your week and weekend! :-)

Hi all, J

 

How are you? I hope you're all well.

 

Happy Easter to you! J I hope you've all been having a lovely long weekend, and a nice break off work.

 

My father and his partner have been staying with us for the last week, so I kind of lost track of time in terms of sending out these emails… I'm so sorry about that. ;-)

 

My father and his partner will be coming with me to the Stammtisch this time, so hopefully plenty of you can make it, as then you'll be able to meet two more native British speakers. ;)

 

George (the softball coach) and I, were thinking about already starting with softball in April. However, I'm not so sure the weather will be quite right for it yet. Therefore, I think it will be best if we start in May instead.

 

Here are the details of our Stammtisch for April:

 

 

Date:                   Friday 1st April 2016

 

Time:                  From 7pm onwards

 

Place:                 Ratskeller Restaurant, Ulm

 

Address:            Marktplatz 1, 89073 Ulm

 

Website:             http://www.ratskeller-ulm.de/

 

Telephone:         0731 880174-0

 

 

I hope to see you there! I'm looking forward to it.

 

N.B.: If you still receive these emails from me, but no longer wish to receive them – please do just let me know. Then I will remove you from the emailing list, so that you won't be bothered by my monthly emails anymore. ;-)

 

Take care and enjoy the rest of the long weekend!

 

All my very best,

Sarah
