After last Friday's success, the hits keep on coming! as W&T meets pre-fetes de Geneve celebrations, which is always better than fetes de geneve itself.

The plan is to start the night in a bar, and then join the pre-fetes crowd either in Jardin Anglais or Ile Rousseau.

Again expecting close to 150 people, but remember that it does fill up pretty quickly, so don't wait too long to apply:)

For those of you who want to give it a try, come and make new friends in a friendly (and warm!) atmosphere in the center of the town, while enjoying delicious wines and tapas.

No fixed menu, so drink / eat as much as you like

HOW TO APPLY: Send me a message with your EMAIL + real name. I will send you the details once the place is confirmed.

See you there!:)

Dear Folks,

Hope all is well with you.

So many people in the group and it can be tough especially if you are a new member.

Reason being, some are shy to go out and meet a bunch of people who already know each other.

To overcome this, I have come up with a new monthly event called, the NEW MEMBERS MEET (NMM).

NMM will be held on last Wednesday of every month.

The Last NMM was a big success with so many new faces showing up.

These meets will take place on the last Wednesday of every month. Of course the Wednesday night fever is every week.

This month's meet takes place on the 30th July 2008.

This event starts at 7pm and goes on until you drop dead and ready to go home.

THERE ARE SOME BASIC RULES :o) Just to make the Newbies feel at home and comfortable

Drinks start at 7pm and since this is a NEW MEMBERS MEET ONLY NEW COMERS WILL ATTEND FOR THE FIRST 1 HOUR.

The whole idea of having these rules is to make the Newbies feel more comfortable.

New comers are those who have never attended any event.

From 8pm onwards its open for everybody..Newbies and Oldies to share their experience.

Hope to see a lot of new faces.

Please RSVP with the subject NEW or OLD.

Event takes place at none other than our "regular meeting place"

Yes, its the Westside Bar

When:
July 30th 2008

What time:
7pm onwards

Where:
Westside Music Cafe
Limmatstrasse 109
Opp Palais XTRA (Tram no 4, 13; Tramstop, Limmatplatz)
Zurich

See you all there!!!

Any questions??

Hi there,

Are you a fan of electronic music but hardly ever find people who share your passion?

I am looking for 2 or 3 people who enjoy electronic music and who would like to join me on my discover-the-Geneva-nightlife expedition:

We meet once or twice a month in a bar for cocktails and go clubbing afterwards. The idea is to discover a different club each time we go out..

First stop: La Crem, Geneva.

First date: July 25th.

If you are interested, drop me a line and I will send you the details. I apologize in advance if I can only respond to 2 or 3 persons..

I was wondering if anyone is off to the South of France this weekend/next week? I was thinking of going and wonder if anyone would like to go/maybe i can join you?

Thanks

Hi,

anybody interested in seeing XF2 (X-Files 2)?
Critiques are not too enthusiastic, but they also weren't for Indiana Jones 4 - so who cares about critiques anyway?
I'd choose Friday, but I'm really open to suggestions for any other day.
Of course, I only want to see the original non-dubbed version...

Let's see who can spot the most in-jokes, self-references and deja-vues :-)

Send me an email if interested.


cu,
Rainer

Hi glocals!

Have a car and space for 4 people!
Please contact me if you are interested in going to Marseille!
I would like to leave early in the morning and come back quite late.

Hi - I'm heading to Morzine this weekend to bike, downhill/freeride and see what trails Morzine has to offer.

Would anyone like to come? If you have already at least one season's freeriding/DH experience and fancy a day out, let me know.

Aiming for a full day Saturday - I will be staying Sat overnight at Morzine so I can't offer a lift back to Geneva (sorry), but it would be great to have a biking buddy or two to investigate Morzine.

Give me a shout via glocals if you're interested.

Cath

Hello everyone,

I would like to get a game going this weekend preferable Saturday morning in the region.

So the question is who would be interested in playing 18 holes?

Learning a language, how hard it is, isn't it? So many skills involved which need badly to be trained. Pronunciation is one of them. Let's focus on it for 2 hours.

I suggest you to come with a few pages that you are going to read loudly in front of others. Come with some parts of text of your own choice and in the language you are learning (French or English).

In order to benefit from this exchange well enough, the group will count 10 to 15 persons. All natives in their respective language, French and English.

We'll meet in the Park Bertrand (area of Champel, Bus 8) at 2pm. Further explanation to be released on request.

Please, do come if you confirm your inscription in order not to prevent others who would have come instead.

Hope we'll all enjoy this funny experience.

Look forward to seeing each one of you.

Rene.

Why didn’t you say so earlier ??!?!?

Come to my place on Saturday night and let’s PARTY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Drop me a line if you want to come!

dear Glocalers,

As I know you are specialists in BBQ I am glad to invite you to a special one on saturday july 26th at 7pm

First there will be a live DJ playing (mostly electro, but other DJs are welcome)

second the view from my new home is just breathtaking. we can see all of Geneva, the lake and the Alps. We live above Thoiry in pays de Gex (France) at 860m altitude.

Third it is a Canadian style, meaning you all contribute by bringing your favourite food and drinks. We will only have drinks for sale for fundraising, but no food. beware :-)

This is a Barbacue to celebrate my arrival in this new house and also an opportunity to raise funds for out little association "Objectif Gaia" via our "buvette associative". its aim is to help protect the environment (and as you know help is needed!!)

There are beautiful hikes starting from our place going to the "reculet" and "cret de la neige" at 1700m. It could be a good opportunity to have a hiking day in Jura ending up with a BBQ. drinking a cocktail and watching the night fall on Geneva.

Please let me know and I'll send you more details.

see you soon
nico

Hello, is anybody going to the Nyon Festival on Saturday in a week?

I bought one ticket earlier for myself, but haven´t found anybody yet with the same plans. Would be happy to join somebody else / a group.
