The venue has been chosen... it's Runway 34. The Angels Grill @radisson Blu would've only been possible if we had taken the Event Menu and not a la carte. So danix decided for Runway 34!

Looks like there’s a tram stop a 7 min walk away, but a 30 min tram ride to the HB.
Looking forward to seeing everyone, as always, and for Lucerne transport museum on Saturday!

yes, still meeting at Upperdeck Bar. The Runway 34 is a 5 to 10 Minute walk to the tram stop, which is another 5 minutes from the airport. Unfortunately not as comfortable as the Radisson Blu, but hey, you’re sitting next or under an old Russian airplane while eating ;-)

The trains seem to be all screwed up around Montreux and Lausanne just now (what a mess getting to rehearsal in Geneva last night, got a lift in the end). What’s wrong with the SBB these days? Otherwise, I hope to make it to the Upperdeck just before five. Is it easy to find?

When you take the escalator up from check-in 3 and keep walking straight and take the stairs (not the escalator) half way up, you’re there. It seems that I will be late. My flight from MAN is delayed by an hour.

Now the correct time is showing beside your post, 4:15pm. Earlier it was showing as 9:15am! Anyway, it was nice to meet you and everyone else. The dinner at Runway 34 was really great as was the whole experience. It won’t be forgotten and I look forward to the next one.

So I can confirm my presence for 16th March and will do the same over at VFT. As it’s right at the beginning of a scarily busy period for me, I’d like the option of canceling if necessary (although I’m 95% sure I will make it). Is there a deadline for canceling?

Nice Stammtisch at the Restaurant zum Kropf last night in Zurich. It was nice to have that separate dining room and we were eight, which was a perfect number for that room. Otherwise it would have been too small. Thanks for all the organisation once again. I made my train back, thanks to Flospi!

Let me know if you find a supersaver and I will let danix know... I won't be there as I will be flying around in Europe a little bit...

Okay, post number one has been updated! The next Stammtisch is happening on July 6th, somewhere near the airport... we will be meeting around 17:30 so that we can make use of the Happy Hour at the Upperdeck Bar!

After a long time I finally updated the first post... The October Stammtisch will most likely be in the Rheinfelder Bierhalle, where they do very down to earth food, swiss style and they have a really large Cordon-Bleu. Hope to see one or more of you there!
