BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / Germany board meet up

**Posted by tobeornot221b** September 25, 2012 4:22 pm

Well, ladies, Mädels:
Mattlocked is right: We need an extra thread for this.
I think, at least some of us like the idea of a meet up - including me.
To speed things up and set off the wave I could offer you the following:

My place. (You know Grönemeyer's favourite city? Then you know where I live.)
My sofa. (Quite big. Almost bigger than the room it's standing in. )
Any relevant DVD and a brave DVD player. Unfortunately, no flatscreen TV.
Tea.
Coffee.
Crisps.
Marmite.
And, if watching seven episodes should last until the early hours of the morning: There'll be some space to rest your weary heads.

Date: If October, then 21st/22nd or 27th/28th. (Haven't thought about November yet.)

Of course - if you have a better place/idea/date: I'm open to everything. Just let me know.

Great idea, Tobe. For me 27th/28th would be definitely better as my son has an important hockey event on 20th/21st (22nd is Monday) in Mainz. November could be a bit difficult for me.

Wow, that's...... BRILLIANT!

27th/28th suits me, too - what I can tell right now.
Only problem might be my back, but there is an appointment at the orthopedist next week, so maybe the worst will be solved until then.

Wo wohnt ihr denn alle? Ihr könnt's auch als Rätsel verpacken wie tobe :-)

Uh, German meet-up, how lovely
I don't think I will be able to make in the next time, though - very stressed. Klausuren
Aber viel Spaß euch!!

I'm living in the town with the football club that won five German championships in the 1970s. And which is named after young horses.

**Posted by Mattlocked** September 27, 2012 8:12 am

Fohlenstadt?

**Posted by tobeornot221b** September 27, 2012 5:35 pm

Any other date suggestion?
Or shall we keep the weekend October 27th/28th on our schedules then?

**Posted by Mattlocked** September 27, 2012 5:37 pm

Hm.... do you have a British shop? Like Susi has?

Unfortunately not. The closest I know of for me is in that city with that little church close to the river.

Mattlocked, the club is name after horses, not the town! Fohlen-Elf, you know.
For me the weekend 27th/28th is still okay.

LOL And I was wondering........................

tobe, that's fine! I have to save money for my special wallpaper.
Maybe we can go to your bookstore and pave it with Post-its.

Back in the Seventies, I was a big fan of the Fohlenelf, the best ever in my opinion. Nowadays I'm more into the black/yellow team, but I still love the green/white/black.

**Posted by Mattlocked** September 27, 2012 5:59 pm

Black/yellow of Klopp? Oh, I must tell hubby, he'll love you.

**Posted by SusiGo** September 27, 2012 6:12 pm

Klopp's boys are okay - but it's a pity they bought Marco Reus. We're missing him over here.

**Posted by Mattlocked** September 27, 2012 6:19 pm

Hm... I hope our meeting will not end up in a football team discussion.
Ah, just start the dvd for me and then talk whatever you like.

**Posted by SusiGo** September 27, 2012 7:13 pm

I promise I won't talk about football when Sherlock's on. I'll need the following equipment:
2 bottles of smelling salt (minimum)
1 soft mattress for thudding
various refreshments to overcome the shock

That could easily be arranged, Susi...

We could simply slap each other from time to time so we won't lose consciousness

Good idea. But not on the nose or the teeth …
