Victoria October Get-Together...
 

...and for sure, we'll do our best to get some maximum participation!

Don't be afraid! We're ordinary folk and a real mixed bag ;)

See y'all soon.

:wave:

Who are you calling a bag Jude?:lol:

I'm in for a new venue - Steph's choice as it was her idea.....

Thanks for another enjoyable night out ladies!

Julie

It must have been fun 'cause the time just flew by and the one- and two-liners were zinging past faster than I could keep up with them! You gotta remember, some of us old folk don't hear as fast as we used to!!! Anyhow, I'll check my schedule and see if I can find a clear weekend in October.

Glenda - I never did hear fast - I miss words all the time - sometimes what I hear is pretty funny compared to what I know was actually said.

That being said, I do have a very strange sense of humour and have endless fun with social nitwits who don't know any better than to egg me on (i.e., the idiot from Sask)......

I hope we can find a day that works for all of us.

Julie

PS 5 more sleeps.....

Shoulda said BAGS! Bwaaa haaaa :devil:

I'm starting to lean to the idea that maybe we should have mini-get-togethers, one weekend version for those that can't do weeknights due to other commitments (yikes, let the kids fend for themselves in the street... ;)) and one for the rest of us that do so much better on a weeknight.

Mmmmmmmmmmmm, feedback?

ps: http://www.appleluscious.com/ 28th, the way cool apple fest (and everything else fest) on Saltspring, coming up.

More gatherings sound like a good idea to me. My weekends are a crap shoot depending on what's going on......

If the apple fest is September 28, count me out because I will be in sunny San Fran that day.

I am available all October with the exception of the Thanksgiving weekend.

Yes, definitely a new venue...! I couldn't stomach Kelsey's again...it smelled like soup.

One of my Chef friends recommended "GLO"

www.gloeuropub.com

What do you guys think? Just throwing it out there.

I can also do a weekend thing in October as well. A brunch might be fun!

I've always wanted to check out that Glo place; hope it's not too expensive?

A weekend brunch? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, that sounds interesting! Milestones (at least the new one out here on Millstream) and Moxies both have pretty nice atmosphere, pretty decent (and decently priced) brunch omelettes with only minimal tweaking required (basic "please keep the toast and potatoes in the kitchen").

Whoo hoo!

ps: anyone up for thinking about going off to Saltspring for the Apple Fest? It's more than apples, it'd be a great day...

:wave:

It's not. Check out the menu on the website I posted. They have a brunch menu as well.

I might be interested in Saltspring...what day would it be?

um, 28th? check out the website I posted ;)
...
(and I will, too).

:wave:

oh, gawd, is that BUBLÉ?!?

:lol:

ROFL!!!

Duhh...I didn't notice you posted a link. I tend to skim posts a lot...

If you are willing to drive again I'd be up for it!! My van has a coolant leak...

Also, I'm getting a sore throat. Won't know if I'm sick until tomorrow....so I'll have to get back to you!

Got the DH back last night (Toronto/Ottawa roadtrip), complete with scratchy throat and congestion. Dang.

Hope you're feeling better. We'll see how it goes for the 28th, I guess... :idea:


:wave:

I'm definitely out of the picture for the 28th - shows both days that weekend, and actually weekends are out for me all of October and I can't make it at all until after the 21st or 22nd. Stupid show commitments!! We'll be leaving town around the 6th or 7th.

I'm feeling fine today. I wasn't sick after all...just raw from inhaling antifreeze all day and having the heat on. I just had to be sure before I committed...don't want to spread anything.
I'm still up for a road trip if you are. :wave:
