Hi, I just posted in the VFT, but my German isn't great yet so I wanted to say here that I'll be in Zurich on the 30th, and I'd love to join as it'll let me practice my German, which I'm currently trying to learn in school.

Wonderful! I guess everybody understood what you said... but on the 30th you probably need to push us to speak german with you! Most of us will easily switch to English! Looking forward to meeting you!

After a great steak yesterday, there will be Fondue in December and most likely a Spaghetti-eat-as-much-as-you-can in January! Hoping to meet more people from FT!!!

Yeah, I'm really sorry I haven't got to these. I lost track of where this thread was, and only just picked it up again. I was there a few years back, after my pal and I had climbed a couple of mountains, and I recall sitting opposite Weero during dinner and having Verve on my right. Airoli was also there! Problem with me, being down Montreux/Sion, is that I often have rehearsals on Friday evenings.

Er... where can I see the dates? Sorry if I'm being dumb and missing something obvious.
EDIT: Just saw it, at the top of the thread, obviously! Can't make the 8th January but I will look at the other dates and do my best to make one of them. Part of the problem is being based in the Lake Geneva region and often Friday's are not free for me, due to music rehearsals.
EDIT 2: Just checked the calendar and the only ones I can potentially make are March 18th and June 17th. The other dates I have performances (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang on April 22nd) or conservatoire exams to oversee and accompany (May 27th).

We're going to be in Zurich on a one-night layover on the way to Israel for my niece's wedding, and it just happens to be one of the new dates! Please confirm two of us on 17 June (as long as there are good seafood and/or vegetarian options).

Same here! I put you down as confirmed and let danix know. There are a couple of nice restaurants around the lake and we might just do the "Spaghetti-Plausch" we do once in a while... Eat as much as you can Spaghetti with 6 (or so) different sauces!

It is, amazingly, possible to get home to Montreux the same night with the SBB CFF, on trains leaving at 22h03 and even 23h03! I think you can put me down as a 'definite' for March 18th and, although something might come up with one of the classes at the conservatoire, I will do my best to keep the date free. Shouldn't be a problem!
