We'll try to arrange a special price in the Landhotel for the meeting.

 

Greetings, Robert

 

I would be interested in that. I intend to participate anyway.

I was there last year and I had the opportunity to meet very nice persons like Ravi,Robert,

Carl and many others.

I hope that this year will be better for the people that don't speak German...last time for the english speakers was a bit hard

I was the only Italian attenddink the meeting and I guess that this year we can count more of us.

 

Anyway If the job will give me the possibility I wiil come also this year!!

[andybarton]

I was there last year and I too don't speak German. But, that might change by June next year

 

There were plenty of kind souls who helped me out while I was there, especially from Norway, Holland and Switzerland. I still had a great time on the two days that I was able to attend.

 

I'm looking forward to the whole weekend next year.

Hi Lads,

I would be very interested in coming and await further details.

Thanks Andy you just gave me the excuse I need to go next year too: I have to help my English friend.....

[andybarton]

Can you bring Lars with you again?

 

 

Seriously, I think that a "Teach Yourself German" CD in the car might not be a bad idea...

[cbretteville]

Can you bring Lars with you again?

 

You mean Ivar ?

- Carl

[andybarton]

I do

 

I was wondering when you'd spot my deliberate mistake

 

Apologies to Ivar.

[Sandokan]

I look forward to seeing you all again - Andy, you do yourself injustice, your German was better than mine . I made many new friends and look forward to seeing you all again - especially if Max brings his wife, who is very very cute :-)

 

I would say it is a definite, but as I am jobless at the moment - I make no promises. However, I will be fluent in German by June .

Andreas and Robert,

 

I am very interested for this meeting near Solms on June 2009

Have you already a programme ?

Have you a visit to Leica Solms factory too ?

and a map of this Hessenpark ?

Thank you... and

 

Happy New Year to all of you and to your family

Bonne Année

 

Best regards

Henry

For anyone in the UK planning to go this summer, Flybe currently have flights to Frankfurt for £70 all in. At that price, my idea of taking a bit of a road-trip and driving down is just a non-starter.

 

Need to see whether I can blag a whole weekend pass this time

[spylaw4]

Not sure yet, but with my Xmas/New Year extravaganza and another main trip in March, plus the Challenge in October and the disastrous GBP/[insert foreign currency as applicable] exchange rate - I may have to give Hessenpark a miss, but you never know.

I'm in Australia. I may actually be in Frankfurt exactly at that time! Is it not too difficult via public transport to get to Wetzlar and Solms from there?

Is it difficult for an English speaker to arrange for the visit to that place in Solms with the Red dot??

Do you speak English or Strine, Geoff?

 

It shouldn't be a problem because I've found that Germans are generally a very accommodating and helpful people who often speak excellent English.

There will be a few of us here (me included) flying into Frankfurt and hiring a car, so I am sure something could be arranged.

 

Last year we found a very reasonable guesthouse/hotel to stay in, and when we visited Solms, they were very accommodating of non-German speakers (including me). If there isn't an official visit as part of the itinerary, I'd happily go along with you.

 

Had a great time last year, and I am looking forward to the same this time.

[hoppyman]

Thanks Andy. I'm definitely in Berlin and then Frankfurt over June. I'll keep in touch on this via this thread.
