I personally would go with the lounge because it will be a bit more relaxed...

As for Tuesday is this not the day they fly in?

I don't know if they will be up for it after flying for most of the day? Not too sure though!!!

did you know Wpeg has more resturants per resident than any other city
Weve just bought a house 20mins south of the peg,Niverville which is booming at the mo,. Prices way cheaper than within the perimeter
As to the -40c winters,hardly any one works out side,and if they do they are so well rapped up that they can hardly move
