e.V. no forms, no cookies, no tracking etc, Simply an mail list to coordinate people
co-operating to have fun events.
Later if mail list gets too heavy.
we might split into themed sub lists
&/or announcement & chat lists (as some Munich lists did); but for now it's all in 1 here.
You have to join the North list before you can read it, write to it, or read the archive.
Why the name North:
- It's simple, short, memorable & people wont get
tongues in a twist, not knowing whether to pronounce in
English or German, initials "NRW"
of a group name that would sound very different in English
& German.
- We are North & West of Munich,
- North of the Alps,
- South East of Dover England,
- In the West but not North of Germany,
- The Region name is North
Rhine Westphalia, a long mouthful, & pronouncing NRW
in English & German is very different
- So North is our short easy name for if a newcomer
asks in either language "Are you part of the North
group ?"
PS: & WEST, we can debate over a barbeque & beer ;-)
Aachen is West most city in NRW
& .de, & was first West
German city liberated in WW2
