Marcarl Posted July 11, 2017 Share #1 Posted July 11, 2017 All the dates crept up on us, and all of a sudden it came to mind (not that I have much of one) that Aussie Annie and Quickstep were in the area for a short stay-over. Best we could arrange was a M&G at MarCarl's, Sunday Aft 2pm to whenever. Food and drinks will be on hand, so just bring yourselves. Plan is to transport Annie and Quickie via Evan and Anne's van from Toronto. Post in this thread if you plan to attend. In case of rain we might move things to Toronto.

bongobobny Posted July 13, 2017 Share #6 Posted July 13, 2017 Don't think we will make it due to my recent surgery, but we will see them when they stay at Big Tom's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcarl Posted July 15, 2017 Author Share #7 Posted July 15, 2017 Due to the fact that I do not have control over everybody and everything, and people do things without my permission, and make decisions that I was not asked for input for, and maybe another host of other complications that were beyond my scope of control................(so what else is new). This happening (M&G) has been moved to Front Street in downtown Toronto. We will be enjoying the upper class of venues, along with people of high standing. It will be an international gathering of vermits, or maybe hermits, but either way the plan is to eat well, enjoy the the company of others somewhat, come up with solutions to the world problems, roast our host (now that I'm not the host), learn how to drive slow, test our patience in traffic, park underground, ride an elevator, listen to lots of BS and even invent some if necessary (as I just did), compliment the ladies, eat til we're full and then some. I think that should keep us busy for a bit,,,,, and ,Oh, we have to translate as we go, the Aussies will be present. Date: Sunday, July 16, 2017 Time: 4pm til we go home. Place: Front Street, downtown Toronto, just west of Jarvis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
