I forgot to thank koko , mjm and skiadcock for waking auh2o and I at 5am. Shortly thereafter koko woke up I0120609 and JSD and dragged them to our room to drink more alt and vodka straight from the bottle 2 hours before our flight home. I was the craziest but most effective wakeup call I have ever had in my life.
Koko I am just guessing but I think you may have left your shirt in our room but you left after our airport departure.

You stood up in the tent, ripped off your clothes and threw the undershirt under a bench, where it was drenched with spilt Alt.

Well, I have the old-fashioned film camera, so once again I'll have to find someone to scan them & post once they're developed. And yes I'll think about digital camera in time for the next Dus Do.
I do think I have a photo of folk in bunny ears & rudi w/ a flashing earring. And for those photos that have already been posted from the beerhall at the fair, the "glistening" of us all is due to it being very hot.
I'm still trying to figure out if the theory we had that "because we were so hot & sweaty the massive quantities of alt wouldn't affect us is valid" (ha)
btw - it was spiff's vodka that was "borrowed", so the sunday morning wake-up callers owe him a few drinks at the next do.

Oz, sounds as if this trip to Koln went better than the last one you made. Which is good to read.

I would/could never forget such an effective line as that!!!! So thank you Daydream for putting such an effective bullet in the "hunting" rifle
. But you still owe me a cooler full of Munchen beer!!!! The other line I have not retained, but all it got me was rolling eyes anyway!!!!

I would give Bernie an A+ for putting this event together! I had alot of fun meeting new people & seeing ones I met at previous events. I picked up some very good ideas from listening & talking to everyone.
Although I am not much good at attending parties (I don't drink very much or often), I enjoyed meeting everyone! The 10-20 ml of Alt I sampled tasted very good. Too bad alcohol gives me a very bad headache even in very small quantities. 
Glad to hear everyone had fun!

they sell beer in Munich in a bit bigger jugs
but Munich beer is also:
* served with much more 'Schaum' on top of it (= Schankgewinn)
* lower in alcohol content
* it should not be in spring time, but either in september 2003 or 2004 for Octoberfest (Octoberfest is in September ...)
