Thumbs up Re: Peterborough ON meet sat 30th Sept

The restaurant is booked, for about 28 peeps, I will confirm numbers closer to date.

It costs $15 for an all you can eat buffet, plus this tax and that tax and tip etc.

please pm me so i can tell you the name its booked under, and if you cant make it for any reason then let me know so i can adjust the numbers etc.

Its easy to find, next door to the best western at very east end of lansdowne near ashburnham and television roads (for exits from the 7 and 115)

bye for now

thats great news, still have only had a couple of requests for the booking name, but how many groups of 40 will they have in there?

I have since been told that the place isnt as good as i was first told, ie its where the pensioners go for the buffet, but its the company that makes the do isnt it? not the food?? Hope its ok, I cant help feeling some responsibility for the choice .. even though i have no idea about places in P/boro

I didnt even check if they have a licence, how daft is that??

see you all on saturday, be gentle with me

It calls itself a restaurant and tavern, so I guess it serves alcohol.Also, looked at reviews and the Sunday brunch is when the old folk go there, after church, not Saturday evening.

To be honest, any restaurant without a clown outside and a playplace to dump the kids has a certain novelty appeal at the moment! Dont sweat it, thanks for organising!

Hear hear.
BTW, we won't be there till about 5.pm as my daughter has been invited to her first Canadian birthday party(!) and even though we're picking her up a tad early, she can't miss that!!

Save us a place!

Hi all

Unfortunately we will not be able to make it tomorrow. We have just bought a new puppy and we cannot leave her for the length of time that we will need to - well not if we don't want to wear gas masks on our return!!!!

Really sorry to mess you around, we were really looking forward to going, but puppy love prevails.

Anyone interested can see our new pup on my blog link, then go to photo album. She is a real cutie, but our lives are on hold for a while.

Hope everyone has a great time and look forward to the next one.

Jane

Hey you guys, hope you are feeling up to it- we want to put face to names, or something like that!

Sorry you cant make it too Canada Jane

We're determined to make it. Determined enough that we'll be showering in the wash stall. Hope to see a quorum.

Thanks for organising the meet up Batty. It was great to put faces to psuedonyms and to hear "proper" accents again.

Cheers all.
