Ottawa Gracies Call!
 

We've starved the gals of Gracies too long. The summer campaign season has ended along with the usual social events. I propose a beer call at our usual haunt sooner rather than later.

Since we can never please everyone, but live in a democracy, here are the proposed dates (based upon my selfish need to be there):

A. Saturday 25 October;
B. Saturday 1 November;
C. Saturday 22 November;
D. A bizarre date that will surely be recommended by others...

Cry havoc, and let slip the Rotters of Ottawa!

Saturday night..
 

Rob...What's with all these Saturday nights..What ever happened to Friday nights ..or any other night...?????
Saturday night is HOCKEY night..
Arrangements can be made for out of towners ,but if it is only us local yokels,why not the old standard parade..17:00Hrs..weekdays..??

A Howling Good Time...
 

Alex, If you had torn your eyes away from the fleshy delights or spent less time pondering the shapes found in beer foam, you would have noticed at least 10 TVs and a honkin' big projection screen dab smack in the middle of the joint.

But I digress...your point is taken. If them thar furiners don't indicate their attendance, then we could potentially, maybe perhaps, think about the possibility of considering the change of dates.

Bring it on!

Hold up your hand...
 

Rob..
Let's get a count...Friday 17 or 24 Oct..
I'll be there..
:drunk: :salute:

For purely personal reasons, i.e. not CMP related, I would rather not the 24th (I'd also prefer not the 25th) but don't let me stop you if that is the best for others.

I am normally hesitant to drink with people who have no other people with whom to drink than me. I am further concerned about socializing with people who don't have anything better to do on a weekend evening.
All of that said, I can be at any bar, at any time, to drink anything with any body, anyhow.

Well with you and Grant and me ..Friday the 17th @17:00...
Any other takers..??

With regrets, I have to back out of this event as I have to go to Montreal with no return before 1930 hours - at Fallowfield. Gracie's is too far to travel to at that time for a beer or two.
If this is rescheduled to another day I will try to make it.

Clive can't make it on the 17th..How about another date..Tuesday the 21st..??
Who's in...?
Show of hands please..

Hands Up
 

I just got back from Montreal and was looking forward to a brew at Gracies this week. However, given the diversity of schedules, I'll go along with Alex's suggestion - 21 October.

October 21 at Gracies (East)
 

Tues 21st is OK for me.

21st works for me.

Tues 21 Oct....
 

Unfortunately, Sally and I will just have to sit at home and get pissed by ourselves that evening. Alone. By ourselves. Without company. Oh well. :(

Have fun, take pics & report afterwards! :D

Make it so..

Engage!
 

Where: Gracies on Olgilvie Rd in Ottawa East (Gloucester)
When: 1700ish or earlier
Why: Philosophic questions will be answered in due course by the beer
What: Same agenda different date
Who: Anyone interested in old rusty trucks

To Geoff and Sally-Ann: Regrets understood...

Another point of view here ;)
 

Which translated means: After work Geoff will come home,, have a big supper, turn on the T.V. and work up to an apres-diner snooze after watching NCIS. :rolleyes... I, on the other hand, have the kittehs... and a nice cuppa tea :thup:

I was looking forward to the famous Gracies call and seeing everyone again, so gentlemen, until next time.... :cheers: :drunk:

Nothing says you can't come and leave the old (sleeping) fart behind - I won't tell him if you don't :rolleyes

Major Hoople

The Itinerate Gunner
 

Axle,

Mike is out at Connaught Ranges teaching on the MTAP (Mil Training Assistance Program). It is expected that he will be Africa bound later in November. Between his instructional duties, dive shop business and S&P events, he comes up for air only once in a blue moon. Keeping Mike busy is good for him...

He will surface soon, and I think he may be enticed to join us, perhaps with some of his foreign students...

I'll give him a call on Monday if time and memory permit.

Calnan still in Canada!
 

Hi Guys:

If'n I can get away from Connaught I will be there on Tue night. I'll see if Graeme wants to attend.

Have some great slides of the various summer activities including the highly successful Camp Husky!

:cheers: Mike:remember :support

Timings!!!
 

I have an O Gp at 1700 hrs and will likley be able to hit the road at 1730 to 1800 ish!

See you there, I'll be the one in relish green!

:salute:Mike

Dress code...
 

Mike ..
It will be great to see you again..don't forget your ROTers hat and your cammo sandels..You are a site to behold..
To bad Willy and the New Brunswick chapter will not make it..and the Toronto Chapter..
But we will be having more than one meet over the winter ..I'm sure..

Camera Reqr
 

Someone bring a camera - we need proof for any boards of inquiry thereafter. I left home without my camera and will be working late today, therefore, I won't be going home to pick it up.

Workin' It
 

Actually, any time after 1430 hrs is late...and to be specific, I am a "contractor" as opposed to being an employee (Public Servant - AKA those I trip over when I leave...).

Hope to see ya at Gracies!

This Thread is Useless without Pictures
 

None of us brought a camera. Nothing more need be said, other than, Jessica, thanks for being our server...
