Well its getting close so perhaps we should start to agree a place. Personally I agree with Ziggy......... The "Marketplace" on the waterfront, Saturday at noon. Its in between the ferry terminal and the Casino/ Purdy wharf towers.

It's flexible enough to be able to move tables around. Its child friendly. There's a variety of food and drink available, easy to find, there is a nice terrace, overlooking the harbour, to sit out on if the weather's good and its central for everyone.

What's everyone think??

Sounds like a plan to me. We plan to indulging in a bit of retail therapy at the MEC store downtown at some point on Sat. so that would be a good location for us.

Just been to the marketplace this morning and there will only be Tim's coffee and the sandwich/soup shop open on Saturday, Easter is too early for the other places to rise from their hibernation, so there will be no beer either... Dunno if anyone wants to change venue, can't really offer any alternatives tho'

You really are a complete tool arent you. If you dont want to contribute anything positive or helpful perhaps you could spend the time at your favourite B&Q store in Aberdeen and leave the rest of us alone?

children, please

am just trying to have a bit of banter

never yet have i resorted to petty name calling

(none of you were born in halifax were you ?)
you're taking it all a bit to heart

it's all too easy to play the cyber-hard man is'nt it ?

ps i did try & contribute some meaningful suggestions for your pow-wow earlier



what about the bandstand overlooking the container port in point-pleasant park ?

there's an old gun emplacement close-by where the kids can re-enact
Wolfe's capture of Quebec, while the adults can barbeque timbits on sticks

am sorely tempted to catch a zoom flight from Glasgow to join the fun
