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!

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!

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.

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.
