I've done it before (just ask Hanno) and can do it again if anyone's interested...

Gotch ya, I have been waiting for someone to suggest bully stew, now I will have a guest cook to show me how to make a good one. I will bring 4 cans of corned beef and the wine, please hurry because my wife really likes wine. I think bully stew is the ideal meal for the kitchen and if I can make it properly I will serve it at some of my veteran meals. Gilles

I will be attending this year too.

Then we're good-to-go! Are you bringing the veggies, or am I? If you, don't forget garlic!

As the Hammond event nears, Bob put the final touches on the field. Tonight, he cut the lawn, or as he put it, "It's time to maudigras." The excitement is building!

Hi Bob

I'll be heading up Friday morning but will be stopping in Ottawa to check out the WarMuseum first. I figure I'll be by in the afternoon on Friday.
