You'd be welcome to join us (assuming you got your own room). |

You, madame, would be immensely welcome. Even though we live much closer to downtown Toronto than you do, we usually spend the night at the hotel across the street (Novotel) so as to avoid DUI issues, and then justify the whole thing by going to the Market and then the AGO or the ROM, or if in season TIFF etc. on the Saturday.

I am working. I work every other weekend and one Friday a month so the chances of me ever getting to one of these are slim. Seriously pissed off about this.

Re: Drinks @ The Scotland Yard???
don't get hopes up. I need to pass flight test first and for that I need some decent weather but hopefully by end of summer I may be close :)
i can probably fit two other adults in the plane if anyone is interested though |

If the Leafs are still in it then hell may have frozen over, so no risk of high water. |
Re: Drinks @ The Scotland Yard???
Yup

They don't start until mid-April and go on until June. The Leafs are in a wild card spot at the moment but a lot could happen over the remaining 14 games of the regular season.

You'd have loved the Sens/Habs game the other night. The ending was astonishing. |

The Habs, like all NHL teams, are Canadians, Yanks or Northern/Central Europeans. An interesting thing about the Habs is that they are a very good team at the same time as being very small blokes. Eight of the 20-man roster are under six foot (five under 5' 10"). Not one of the Sens is under six foot, and they are not the biggest team in the NHL. Size clearly does not matter. |

Only half of the Hibs team are actually Scots. The rest are from other bits of The British Isles (excluding a token frog).

I remember Vancouver winning two league's in a row but their skill and size being no use because you are allowed to start hitting people more in the cup/knock out part. Teams of brutes like Boston more suited. |
Re: Drinks @ The Scotland Yard???
