Ottawa M&G - 2009

[Journeyman]

I would assume this is for the young'un... 

Of course!


...unless you women intend to have a M&G.........with daycare, then bring him along. Previous meets have been held in bars though. 

 

[Eric_911]

Previous meets have been held in bars though.

As should all future ones. No ankle biters!

Ok, lets leave him alone now...

 

[Lil_T]

Lol!  ok no kiddies

 

[PMedMoe]

Hey, we had an underage participant at our Toronto/Burlington M&G.  He just didn't drink.

 

[dapaterson]

Or move it over the river to Gatineau so the 18 year olds can fully participate...

 

[PMedMoe]

Are you kidding??  A taxi from downtown will cost me $25.00.  Gatineau would just be outrageous!

 

[Lil_T]

I'll either be DD or I'll have hubby do the chauffeuring, so if anyone's coming from the east end - hit me up.

 

[SoldierInTheMaking]

I know how much fun it would be biting everyone's ankles.....lol like Eric said who's not much older than myself, but I'm quite a long ways from Ottawa so I don't see myself getting there, on the other hand I will already be in basic, so sorry guy's I know you all want me there but I just can't make it.

 

[Lil_T]

oh well darn.  ;D

I do wear big-boy pants though . And I've been around the block before.

Hehe... You're 18, you're gonna have to take what's dished out to you for a while... I've been in your shoes before, and I've sat at my share of head-tables during mess dinners.

Wait till your future co-workers tell you the same old classic lines: "I have a son/daughter your age" or "I was on my basic back in '85... how old were you then?"

Have fun on basic!

Anyways... moving on.... [/hijack]

Sooooo... can we isolate some more criteria for the M&G other then just the month?

- Run of the mill bar / or pub / or restaurant?
- Outdoor patio for the smokers? (or not?)
- Music not so loud that a conversation is not possible?
- Cheap beer and food?
- Classy spot? (I'm partial to sleazy establishments and questionable joints. My kind of crowd. lol)

I think the last one was at D'Arcy's.

Man, that was a while ago. At least a year or two. I believe there was another one a bit after that, as well.
Last one I was at was in Kingston. ...Wow, time just flies, does it not?

 

[Loachman]

I could be there.

 

[Lil_T]

alrighty.. once we decide on a venue should I book a table or two?

Probably two ... one for the dancers to "dance on" and one for "the viewers" to sit at  ;D

 

[Lil_T]

I like the way you think ;D

Now I just have to hope I'm still here for that - and I'll have Hubby chauffeur for me.  :cheers:

 

[CorporalMajor]

So I take it no Cabin.  :'(

OK, I actually like Patty Boland's and the Honest Lawyer, even though the latter always has some idiots getting into a fistfight every time I get there. 

Personally I am not shy to either sitting behind a table or dancing on top of one.  S'all good.

 

[Lil_T]

Well... I'm taking suggestions. 

Then we can probably do a poll to vote on the venue.

How does 16 May work for everyone?

Depending on what I drink and how much I drink the same could be said for me!  ;D

All clear on May 16th :nod:

 

[PMedMoe]

16 May looks good for me so far.

Yes, a patio for smokers (sorry  :-\).
Music not too loud, have to be able to chat.
Classy?  Not necessary, we'll bring our own class.    Sleazy?  Not to the point of prostitutes plying their trade in the bathrooms. 

Lil_T, PM inbound.

 

[Eric_911]

16th of May is good. Hopefully I'll still be in Ottawa then.
