@naughtyyoungboy thanks for your help
You say to buy beer from the Coop supermarket, are there many of them around the centre where we will all be? as I can only see the one on a map and if theres only one it will run out fast.
Getting train in from Geneva do you think its worth bringing beer with us?

Mr NaughtyYoungBoy (sounds so wrong)

na, it sounds just right.

keep in mind that you have to buy the ticket before you enter the train. (40 francs btw)

are there many of them around the centre

there are 4 coop within 2 minutes walk from waisenhausplatz + 1 denner and 1 drinks of the world (which is a bit overpriced)

any chang beer in the drinks of the world?

 

[naughtyyoungboy]

any chang beer in the drinks of the world?

is it a drink of the world?

if you're thai, why would you choose chang over singha?

 

[macst]

any chang beer in the drinks of the world?

Yes there is. About 3 francs for a (small) bottle. Drinks of the World is more than a bit overpriced. I only go there every now and again if there's a specific beer that I want that I can't get in Coop or Denner (e.g. Kristallweizen from Germany). Stick to Coop or Denner IMHO.

Stay safe mate, hope the rescue teams get to you soon...

If you haven't ordered your francs yet, i'd possibly advise hanging on as long as possible, my mate ordered some a week ago, and got the rate of 1.25 from Asda, just been into Asda myself to get my francs, and they are now 1.31, so gone weaker by 6p a pound in exactly a weel, just a little food for thought.
