Paris meetup Dec 5, oui?

Apéro and/or dinner meetup in Paris?

Hey kids, I'm workshopping the first chapter to my dissertation on Dec 4th and I think I'll be in the mood to eat and drink well afterwards. I'm thinking of getting an apéro and dinner somewhere on Friday, Dec 5th. Who's in?

What if I promise not to complain about being a grad student? Now who's in?

Salut les enfants, je vais présenter le premier chapitre de ma thèse devant une séminaire / atelier le 4 déc, et j'imagine que j'aurai envie de bien manger et boire après le coup. Je pense à organiser un petit apéro et dîner dans un coin sympa quelque part vendredi, le 5 déc. Qui est partant?

Et si je vous promets de ne pas râler de ma vie de doctorant? Qui est chaud, alors?

I'm possibly around on the 6th but I'm not arriving from London until very late on 5th.

duly noted! I can probably do the 6th instead of the 5th. I'll wait to see what other Paris-based MeFites have to say.

devant une séminaire

n.m.

And I only wrote that because I too was once a thésard in Paris. Good luck with it!

I'll be late. I have to get my hair cut ;)

OK fine, Zambrano, but you better look !@#$ing fantastic, then. =]

Unfortunately, we have family visiting that weekend so we can't make it. Hopefully next time though...

Dripdripdrip: boo! Have fun with your family. I'll raise a glass of something alcoholic for you two.

OK, roll call, folks. Two questions:

Can you meet up Dec 5th? (friday)

Can you meet up Dec 6th? (saturday)

based on your answers, I'll call a time and place. Also, let me know if you'd prefer doing an apéro, dinner or drinks.

Hey folks, I've just been called into work to manage a late-night teleconference, so I'm out for tonight (although possibly available later). Since a bunch of you were already interested in hanging out tomorrow instead of today, I propose we meet tomorrow. I'm sending a MeMail to anyone who posted on here with my cell #, and we can organize from there.
