Barry's and Brian's Excellent Ottawa Adventure
B&B:
Here's hoping you will make time for a visit to the Eastern Ontario C15TA, also home of the most wondrous Windsor Carrier and cool new CCKW- not a CMP but rather cute in its own way!  The S&P awaits your presence!  Mike

I had a cutomer today just back from our nation's capital and I asked her about the weather. Her reply was "Ottawa is Hell". Am I to assume this means it is hotter than Hell and the snow has melted? If so I will be the guy with the belly in the Hawiian shirt and sandals.
Looking forward to the trip and both offers for Saturday sound great. We tried to make the Hammond Barn once with Dirk but it didn't work out and the only time I was at S&PGunner wasn't there. As I have a US 1 1/2 ton Chevy it will be a treat to see the new CCKW and of course the TA speaks for itself.  Regards Barry

Close One!
From CTV News Ottawa: Three popular Ottawa bars are facing temporary liquor licence suspensions for over-serving customers in what the province says has become a "pattern of conduct after NHL hockey games."
Fortunately, our Grace O'Malley's remains pure and unsullied. It will be serving the Guinness next Friday night to slake the thirst of the assembled ROTTERS! So, who the hell was Grace O'Malley? Good question that we never really pondered when the beer was flowing. However, here is what I found out about our girl on the interweb: Gráinne Ní Mháille (c. 1530 – c. 1603), also known as Granuaile or Gráinne Mhaol, known in English as Grace O'Malley, is an important figure in Irish folklore, but was in fact a larger-than-life figure from 16th century Irish history. O'Malley is sometimes known as "The Sea Queen Of Connaught". MLU makes you smarter, and Guinness makes you a better dancer...

Visit of TO contingent to S&P
Barry and Brian:
I hope Sat AM works best for you as I have been directed to attend a command performance of my 4 year old nephew singing Happy Birthday to himself on Sat PM. Looking forward to seeing you both at the Sea Queen of Connaught's Own Tavern! Mike

Nice people, those Rotters
Wow Barry, this sounds like a great trip. I didn't know we were going to be inside socializing
 at Gracie's - I thought we would just be vending in the parking lot. And aren't they a great bunch to extend all the kind invitations to visit - Gracie's, Hammond Barn, S & P Museum. I'm wondering if that's the response to your comment about some border raiding  - they may just want to know where we are at all times. Anyway I am sure looking forward to all the stops - we do have some logistics to sort out. Thanks everyone. Brian

On to Our Cunning Plan
Quote:
Apologies to Baldric...I think Brian broke the code. Nonetheless, we will ply them with beer as there are so many questions for them to answer. Forewarned is forearmed raiders - we will need a history of the C15TA acquisition, an update on the Chicken Ranch activities, more sharing of HUP knowledge. PS, bring your woolies - bitter cold is forecasted.
