Hi to all! If our meeting will start at thirty past eight, but how late will finish it usually? I will go with pleasure, but my job begin at 08:00 and probably I will leave earlier others. And how will I find out you?

Taciturn

Hello Forever lost! I'm ready will go 1 hour earlier.

ElizabethRous

Hi there guys

I am keen to meet up, make friends and explore Moscow.

Living centrally, so perhaps Sunday lunch somewhere so there are plenty of people about?

Elizabeth

Elizabeth

ForeverLost

See you all there :D

hugin

I'm in!

Where is my laser gun?? :-)

Adel, thanks to you for arranging all of this stuff! It should consume a lot of precious time...

Taciturn

I'm in too! Very long time ago I've guns in my hands:))) Do you remember Status Quo "You are in the army now"? "Your finger's on the trigger, but it don't seem right"... Or we should remember the "red and white roses" war?:))) Nice to will meet you all!

Nat22

Just wanted to remind everybody to take suitable running shoes:)

ForeverLost

You're going to need all the help you can get nat :P

dSeldom

It was great to hang with all of you. It was nice to meet the two new, and I must say, awesome people. The group is getting bigger on the forums here but the amount of people who show up stays at 6-7. There's something weird with that.

I am going to openly admit that I got my butt handed to me twice today in the game of lazer tag. But it was great. We also found out that English chicks are tough and smart and can hold their own, and the French ones get wild on beer. These are all good facts to know.

ForeverLost

And if history taught us anything, it's that the French always lose :P although, that second game natalli really went all out! Lol

Nat22

I'm asking for a rematch icekating...  Let's see who loses then Mike!!!!

Taciturn

There was greatfull and funny yesterday. I'm very glad to met you all yesterday! I will put pictures in internet today after job and will write link.

Nat22

So the iceskating rink at gorki park opens on the 16th of November (next Friday). It's 300 roubles to rent skates and it closes at 23:00. Who's in???

hugin

I'm definitely in :-).

We were at opening of this iceskating rink in past year. There were huge amount of people, we waste in queue about 1 hour. So, it will be good idea to send someone ahead of main group to conduct reconnaissance :-). May be I'll get free from work earlier at next Friday.

And we should remember that there are two entrances in iceskating rink and near distant one usually considerably less people.

Taciturn

I apologize to you all. I lost all pictures on the sd-card because yesterday I saw pictures from sd-card directly. I wanted to sleep very much and I don't remember as pulled out sd-card and turned off computer. Probably i pulled out sd-card without safety extraction. And now my sd-card is empty without my other pictures and must be formatted. I'm so sorry to you all and I promise make soon many good pictures for all us.

ForeverLost

That's not a problem! I don't like to be in pictures anyway! Lol so even better :)

hugin

I'll be cry about this photo... :-)
Do't tell me that there were good ones!

alex.ouyang

hudsonbar.ru/
if anyone fancies coming along :)

Vikitory

Hi Michelle! I would like to join to your gathering. What time it will be?

Nat22

Anna and I are thinking of checking out the Expat night at Papa's place http://papas.ru/ on wednesday they have a drink happy hour from 7-11 pretty cheap. And I promise this place is open, we already went there on the weekend a couple of weeks ago, nice atmosphere. Close to Lubyanka metro. If anybody wants to come with, don't hesitate!

life is for sharing

Natacha, i would like to go with you!
At what time do you want to go?

Nat22

I finish work at 7.30 on wednesdays so shall we say 8 at Lubyanka?

elvik59

Thank you Wiz!! I'll see you on friday, so what time do we meet and where? at the park koultoury station? i think we will probably go early to avoid the crowd after work, but then i guess most of people will come after work so we can meet there, a few of you have my number now, see you on friday! and good idea for wednesday we might come if we're not too far

life is for sharing

Nat, i definitely will be on Lubyanka at 8:)
Sarah, i will be happy to see you on wednesday!

Nat22

So what time are you all meeting up to go skating on Friday? I finish work at 9 so will have to join you guys later...

hugin

I plan to be at iceskating rink at 19:30.
I think that there will be queue, and nearest 30-60 min I'll be in that queue. So, it will be good idea to call or text to each other when we will be at place to reduce losing time in queue.
