andybarton Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share #21 Posted July 19, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) OK, folks. We are indebted to Stefan (sts) who has sorted a booking at Wirt am Dom for the Saturday night. The tables are booked for 19:30. Wirt am Dom • Ristorante - Pizzeria in 35578 Wetzlar Google Translate They do not require per-ordering, which makes my life a lot easier, so individuals and couples can order from the menu and they will sort out the bill. So, you can eat as cheap or as expensive as you like. Drinks go on your own bill too, of course. Stefan has kindly offered to translate the menu into English for us and will post it here for those of us who are Germanically-challenged. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StS Posted July 20, 2013 Share #24 Posted July 20, 2013 (...)Stefan has kindly offered to translate the menu into English for us and will post it here for those of us who are Germanically-challenged. Well, strictly speaking it is more a translation for the Italian-challenged, but here it goes - the English parts are in Italics... I guess everyone speaks culinary Italian these days...

wlaidlaw Posted August 3, 2013 Share #31 Posted August 3, 2013 Andy, Can you please add me for 1 person. I will do a dog leg on my way back to the UK from France. I have to be in the UK for 15/10. Is there a suggested hotel list for Wetzlar. I don't want to end up in the same dump I was in last time! Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted August 3, 2013 Author Share #32 Posted August 3, 2013 It will be good to meet with you, Wilson. The consensus seems to be between the Wetzlarer Hof Hotel ( where lots of people will be staying ) or the Mercure Kongress ( where we will be, with a few others ) I have not stayed in either. Do you want a factory tour space on the Friday morning? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlaidlaw Posted August 3, 2013 Share #33 Posted August 3, 2013 Do you want a factory tour space on the Friday morning? Andy, Yes I think I should have a valedictory tour of the old place before it all goes to the whizzy new place back in Wetzlar. I went round Wetzlar with my father in I would think 1962 or 63, when the whole place was a hive of activity with hundreds of workers. I remember them being very interested in my father's Contarex Bulls-Eye - what did he think of it, as a regular Leica user etc - too heavy was his answer but that obviously got ignored.

wlaidlaw Posted August 3, 2013 Share #35 Posted August 3, 2013 Andy, Thanks for the steer on hotels. I am booked in the Mercure. It has to be better that what I assume must have been an agricultural gästarbeiter doss house, which I unwittingly booked into last time, thinking it was a charming rural B&B. I thought it seemed very good value. Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you want a factory tour space on the Friday morning? I am currently staying in the Wetzlarer Hof. Parking hard to come by-8 cars in front. and another 6 across the street which open up at 18H00 til morning. Otherwise there is a public garage around the corner for 5 euros per evening. Internet very fast here-best I have had in 6 weeks of travel. Weekend pricing lower than week days right now by 10 euros per double per night. My mattress very soft. Mercure just up the street from here. Under ground parking. Signs in lobby about internet charge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
