Default Vancouver Drinks: suggested dates? Venue?

Hi we have a bit of interest for Vancouver drinks.

So far, Engineer, Mrs Engineer, Snowy, Mr Snowy and Beckiwoo (and partner may be ??) have said they would come..

Yaletown has been suggested as a location.

Any dates/times/venue? If in the week, it would be better to have an early eve start (like 5.30 or 6.00) from my perspective.

I'm happy with during the week and any time after work.

Im away from mid February to beginning of March so either before or after that time would be good.

I would possibly be able to make a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday downtown. Can't do Fridays until the end of March as I'm in a curling league!!!!

Me too.

So if Tootlepootle and EA can as well,

We will just select one

We need a venue. Becki: can you suggest one?

Thank you!

There is the New Oxford around there as well as The Distillary. EA may have some better recommendations.

Sounds good, I may not be there till around 6, but no worries.

Have to look on the desert menu for Tea and Coffee but it is there

Menu | Tavern at The New Oxford

I think on a Thursday night we should be fine. But I can make one a week before when we have final numbers.

A quick suggestion from our experiences at the Toronto meetups. When you book the table ask them if they will do separate bills. We have found that works really well as it cuts out any awkwardness about buying rounds etc or trying to work out who had what at the end of the evening.

I think that someone needs to twist a certain Vancouverites trotter, he would no doubt liven up the evening...
