Well it is that time of the year again where we should all pick a spot, raise a glass, complain about architecture, rant about stucco, and get excited about rumors.

I was thinking perhaps 3rd week of november as much past that we tend to get caught up in shopping/office parties.

Who: you
What: beer and cheer
Where: Sherlocks downtown - upstairs - ill try to book it
When: Friday November 30 - 8pm till nth
WHY: cause i dont want to be there alone.


*lets try to make this date work, but if there are the majority who can make another date, we will change it. That being said, if you cant make this date, suggest another.

:cheers:

Ginty should have kicked your ass... front street-front retail purposes. (WTF is that all about anyways?) And he's going to kick Newfangled's ass for prefeering street-fronting, attached garages.

Can't make it for obvious reasons. Perhaps take #2 between the Dec. 21 and Jan. 2?

Unless you're being sarcastic, I'm not sure if that's a good idea, because a lot of us may be away for the holidays by then.

feepa
Nov 17, 2007, 5:42 AM
^^C2E - I got jumped on because I didn't think street front retail would be such a good idea in Edmonton clinic - specifically looking at the latest renderings now available - I could now see one potential retail bay with street level access on the north east corner... but who's to say. Its hard with the LRT right there, various parking accesses, and entrances into the building itself.

i spoke to the manager of sherlocks and they cant reserve the upstairs for anyone on a friday...so ill go early and sit up stairs and try to hold tables when they become available. If anyone else can come earlier...that would be gooder.

ill probably be there 630pm or so

rapid_business
Nov 22, 2007, 5:38 PM
Cold, with all the newbies showing up you should make everyone wear name-tags. e.g. (Hi my name is SHOFEAR, aka Washroom Voyeur [or his real name works too I guess])

Works for me. I'm not going home after work, so I had been planning on being a mallrat for a few hours. But drinking early sounds better.

And I'm glad someone else suggested nametags. :)
