Am I the rob you speak of in your rantings above? I will be coming into town on the 6th, and staying until at least the 14th. Maybe even a day or two longer. If these two events were combined, I would be happy with that if it fell into the week I am there.

Hi Rob L, Rob C here...the OMVA meet is on the 2nd of March so the events won't coincide. Since you are the "guest of honour", you pick the night that you are available and we will all do our best to show you a good time at Gracies. Once the night is selected, I will book a spot at the Olgivie Road Gracies - our usual haunt.

Don't mind the rants - that's par for the course for the Rotters...Looking forward to the event.

Do you have a preference if it's in the middle of the week, or more towards the end. Quite frankly, pick a night and I'll be there. From the last time I was there ( a Friday), I recall Gracie's was pretty packed.

[Eric B]

If we have a date and time i will let the others know on Wed.

Thanks Eric

I see that Rob has picked up the gauntlet and is acting like an entertainment chairman should on behalf of the Ottawa ROTters ,,good lad that..I'll have to commend him on his actions..an unusual accolade that he rarely receives..

No such luck this time. We were put up in the Brookside hotel last time because of some scheduling conflict with the barracks in Connaught. As far as I know there is no conflict this time, so we will be in the spartan comfort of the military quarters and partaking of the messhall's culinary delights. Unlike the Brookside, I fear there will be no fresh squeezed orange juice with my poached eggs in the morning.

Still a couple days before I come out yet....do we have any P-med techs on the site who can condemn a barracks in the next 5 days? Or maybe an engineer with a zettelmeyer dozer? Ed?

[Ed Storey]

I like the barracks and enjoy the food at Connaught Ranges.

[rob love]

You're a die hard Ed.

Actually, I did have a meal there during the PDT last year and mess hall food certainly has taken a few steps up since the fried baloney days.

Got my instructions today: yep barracks with sleeping bags it is. I have rented a car for the week so at least I won't be "CBd".

Looking forward to getting back to KAF and getting away from this damned snow.
