Not sure we'll go today, but I'm sure we'll go at some point, so will let you know.

Re: Anyone in Vancouver?
Confident that I won't get surgery for months due to wait times I've booked flights to lalaland and back - I fly to Van on 4th May and I should be in Oliver May 5 - 8 for a bit of a reunion then drive to Vancouver on the 9th and return to Regina on the morning of the 12th. I'd like to meet up in the bar at the Wise and get half pished and play darts if my shoulder can take it and see if we can get some takeout from Green Lettuce and have it there. No pressure, rentals, or expectations. Oink could bring some smoked fish if he wants.....

Hoo daayyy?
Edit: Gotcha, but you never know. - sometimes those disco people find common folk a refreshing change from the supermodels, media personalities, and pornstars they spend most free time with. Oh come on, no smilies on an edit? Darn.

Re: Anyone in Vancouver?
Re the new Cactus Club in Coal Harbour - we went there at 10pm last night. They told us there's a 40 min wait for a table (there were lots of empty tables around). It was sooo busy - felt like a McDonalds. I had never been to a CC before. Is that what it's like? Very pretentious. Sorry, but I don't wait for tables. So we went to Prestons instead. No wait, no snobbery, lovely staff and $6 wine on Weds.
