Stockholm meet up
posted May 14, 2014 5:32 PM   RSS | iCal | +googleCal

Wed June 4 at 5:00 PM, Vitabergsparken Katarina-Sofia Sweden
Vitabergsparken, Södermalm, Stockholm, Sweden (Map & Directions)
Hejsan! Here's the scoop: I am going to the premier of Cyrano tomorrow night, on June 4th, as described in this link: http://kulturhusetstadsteatern.se/parkteatern/Evenemang/2014/Cyrano. Since Meijusa has a baby, I will be there at 5 pm. I will be in the first row of seats at the bottom, closest to the stage, and then we can find a place nearby that's better for the baby. The show starts later, so no one needs to stay unless they want to. I don't have a local number but perhaps you can text at +1 510 6120 if you can't find me. If the weather is bad, I don't expect anyone but me to show. :-) I will bring food for myself and I hope y'all do too. Thanks for your patience. If you can make it, great. If not, I understand.

Yay and hurra! Did we meet at the last meetup 500 years ago?

I'm always up for a meet up.

Oh golly, I totally forgot to check this until now. Förlåt och tusen tack!

I've never been to any MeFi meet up so nope, that wasn't me. What are y'all up for? Fika? Flag-waving on the 6th?

Should I write a few other locals and see if they are interested? The weather is so gorgeous. It would be fun for me if we just brought food to a park after work and had a picnic. (I used to sublet on Lilla Essingen but there are a zillion gorgeous places.)

I've never organised one of these before. Help me out here. Is after work okay? Are particular evenings okay? Let's decide on a date, time & place, then I can invite other locals if you both are cool with that.

For sure! I am out of town next weekend though. We could be wild and crazy and do AW now on Monday?

Damnation! I have a date Monday night. Wanna meet up Tuesday or Wednesday? Aren't Wed & Thurs some kind of holiday?
posted by Bella Donna at 4:47 PM on May 23, 2014


Something tonight or tomorrow after work would workThursday is holiday, not Friday. It varies if people are working on Friday or not.

The nice weather seems to have disappeared, so I not sure if being outside is still a good idea :)

Hejsan!

Förlåt! I must do freelance work tonight. I have a proposal: What about meeting to see this?
http://kulturhusetstadsteatern.se/parkteatern/Evenemang/2014/Cyrano/

I could meet y'all at 18:30 so we could get good seats, picnic and talk before. Then we could go have a drink after if you like.

Available Wednesday-Friday, June 4-6. Anybody in?

Mvh

Thanks for sending me the link, Bella, I totally had not seen this, although I WAS at the last meetup, 500 years ago!

A picnic in the park would be perfect if it's warm enough. Evenings and performances are a bit tricky with our little baby, but if we meet up at, say, 5pm instead, that would work out. It looks like the entry to Cyrano is free, so I assume there's no border between the theater part and the rest of the park.

As I say, I am out of town :( but go on without me, worst case scenario we grab another beer before you go! How long are you in town?
posted by Iteki at 10:08 AM on May 28, 2014


Iteki, I thought you were out of town over the weekend. June 4, 5, 6th are a Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.

So we could totally do it on Wednesday or Thursday. And yes, I could be there at 5 pm and later folks could meet us later.

I'm leaving the 8th so I'm running out of time. Sigh.

Cheers,
db

Yah, it's a long weekend, lots of people off work from noon on Wednesday. Gotta love public holidays.
posted by Iteki at 11:17 PM on May 28, 2014


I can both tonight and wednesday and could join later (or in the middle of the day) on thursday. I think your best bet might be to just decide a time and place and whoever can, can. You could wait forever for Stockholmers to achieve consensus :)

Come if/when you can! I will repost as an actual event now. Thanks for your patience!

We will try to be there - with a bright red stroller (that might be covered by a black rain protector).
posted by meijusa at 4:55 AM on June 4, 2014


Oh Meijusa, that sounds so great! Only I am now going to flake out on y'all. I am really sorry but I woke up with a headache this morning that I cannot shake.

If I am coming down with something, I definitely don't want to give it to you, your baby, or anyone else.

My apologies but I will be staying close to home today. I am really sorry.

Ooh, dropped in to let you know what I look like, glad I saw this in time. Sorry you are feeling assy :( might be worth memailing meijusa in case she doesn't see this?
posted by Iteki at 6:36 AM on June 4, 2014


Thanks, Iteki. I've been in touch. Tack för era talamod. Kanske nästa gång.
posted by Bella Donna at 6:52 AM on June 4, 2014


See you all next time, hopefully on a more sunny day and everyone feeling good!
