    We had a great time. Grace we were literally one block from where I used to live about 6 years ago.

    The restaurant was as good as I remember.

    But best of all was the company. Guest77's wife was a sweetheart and we did our best to encourage her to join us here.

    Thanks JH for posting this. I was wondering who might do it first.

    Ascot is a lovely lady

    Scully - a heart of gold but hehehe warch out if you're the wts. Her kids are super

    I um had a camera ...but decided not to bring it out because we had kids there and I think we really need to protect children and keep their faces off the net.

    Now if I was home and on my computer I would give ya'll the stick people pic

    It was a great group

    Now to get home and get the Winnipeg group going

    Good Grief how do you people manage to post so quickly???? JH - what time did you get home?? How did the cat react? Mine were hungry and demanding - ah, cats - they sure know how to put you in your place.

    Yeah, it was wonderful to meet everyone. The food was good, the company great, the conversation went from sharing experiences, sad and funny (who else can understand why a two-door car unleashes feelings of guilt?) to just getting to know each other a bit better.

    I think JH even has a couple of extra questions to ask now!

    Guest77 - thanks for the gift, I'll let you know if I start putting and driving one of these days, without knocking myself out in the process.

    No pics, but Skully's daughter drew us some pics and did some cute little origami gifts for us.

    LadyLee: Winnipeg is now on my list of places to visit.

    Mouthy: wish you could have been there, and if I ever get to Toronto you can be sure I'll hop over to St. Jacobs.

    Hope we get together again some time!

    Ascot or Acsot?

    Good Grief how do you people manage to post so quickly????

    By not respecting speed limits.

    How did the cat react?

    She gave me hell for being gone all day.

    I think JH even has a couple of extra questions to ask now!

    Oh yea, did you ever run out of toilet paper at the wrong moment?

    Was that the question?

    Guess why I just thought of that question???

    It's actually "ACSOT" (Tosca, the opera, backwards), but I think I'll change it to Ascot since that is what everyone uses, or maybe Mascot as Guest77 suggested!

    How about "Does Kleenex work as well as toilet paper?" (does that constitute a "fluff" topic?)

    All my funnin' of Scully aside I'm glad you guys and gals had a great time! I've yet to be disappointed with a MeetUp or Fest, even if there were only 3 or 4 of us there.

    SM, I carry a camera in my car, and it just escaped me, after the fact, shame, shame, shame. Personally, I would recommend a setting similar to ours for others to get to know one another. My wife was very pleased. Thanks again Scully, JH, Mascot and Lady Lee and oh, the young ones also.
