I suggest you give cheeky_monkey a shout. He moved from Edmonton to Calgary and is a former pro footballer.
Nice you flatter me too much In fact i was an apprentice with Arsenal for one season 1986-7..but injury and illness meant i never made the grade as a full time pro(but that's another story)

But yes i did move from Edmonton to Calgary.

How will I know I've found the right crowd on the 24th? I'd hate to spend a lunch hour only to find out I was sitting with a bunch of guys from the French Expats forum.

Well naturally, I'll be wearing a kilt and have my face painted blue, and AC will have his pith helmet and Union Jack waistcoat on.

Well i'm SAFC so this should be interesting......

I don't make it a habbit of getting out of bed before 10am on a weekend, but seen as though there is a chance (albeit small) of being the only guy there who can gloat - i'll try to make the effort!

See you all at the Pig & Duke bright and early tomorrow morning! :-)

Is anyone able to twist their missus' arm to come down too - then there can be some handbag chat for my 'better' half!?...(joke - hopeully no-one will be too offended!?)

Sounds good. Come and ask for Rick or Jake. We are both North London originally. Love a bit of banter. So his missus is in Italy and mine sometimes comes down - depends on the hangover but there is usually at least 4 or 5 girls there so she won't be alone. see you tomorrow!
