|
|
| Sen from Bosnia, eyed suspisciously by Juan. At the AAC, we get granular on every newcomer, no matter how lovely they might smile. |
|
| From left to right: Lucy, Juan, Jan and Sen. Lucy is from England. There you go, Bob - a female non-American native speaker was present (for the statistics). |
|
| Kay, Sonja and Nathan. Nathan looks a bit gloomy dut to the fact that president Bob wasn't at the Stammtisch this week. |
|
| Sen and Maysoun, Kay's roommate. Maysoun comes from France. Welcome to the Stammtisch! |
|
| Maysoun's falling asleep. Kay smiles a devilish smile... she has a plan. Unfortunately, I didn't get the names of the two girls in the background (but am open to suggestions). |
|
| Kay's plan seems to work out, Maysoun's eyes are open now. Even though she's making quite an agonised impression. |
|
| Andi and president Rich Cheese. Stop closing your eyes when I'm taking a picture, everyone! |
|
| Oh yes, that's better. Sen and Maysoun. |
|
| And what happened at the other side of the table? Alban and Silvia. |
|
| And Uli, very important, playing around with his mobile phone/mini-personal computer/notebook/gameboy. |
|
| Trying out a new perspective: Hedi, Alban and Uli. Hedi spoiled the picture (but I've never seen my nose from that perspective before!). |
|
| And now, look down everyone. Hail to double chins! |
|
| Maysoun and Kay are discussing the problem that Sen is always turning away from Maysoun. |
|
| Maysoun is getting angry. "If you don't want to talk to me..." |
|
| "... I'll simply take your place." She looks much happier now. Uli's rising in rank. |
|
| Not the other side of the table, but a whole new table here: Three unknown girls and good old Rhys, chatting them up. Some things never change at the AAC! |
|
| Sen and unknown girl (name to come at some point), enjoying the delicious and free food. |
|
| Keith and Rich in captious pose. Silvia looks slightly distressed. |
|
| Another happy AAC member, taking delight in the free food. |
|
| Our beloved waitress Karin, best in the world. |
|
| Telling from the look on his face, Kay has just hit Nathan at his most tender spot. |
|
| Let me tell you, there is a fine line between smiling and snarling, Andreas. We'll try again next week. |
