Default Toronto. December 9th, 2011. Beer. Yard.

Novo and I intend to convene and drink some of this. From 6ish, I imagine.
If anyone else is inclined to come along, please do.

Please note that this is, pretty much, the extent of the organisation. If you'd like to come and aren't confident of recognizing people from the internet in a bar, then post here and I'll send you my mobile number so you can call it from across the room and then decide whether or not to go out the back way.

Cheers.

As it happens, I can easily do both, so I'm unflustered by this shilly shallying.

Fair enough, but it's a change to be a cat.

The good news is that I will be flying though Toronto on the 9th. The bad news is that the very-pregnant-Mrs-AX will not be terribly happy if I prolong my stay by a day to go drinking with people from the internet. Which is a shame. The other shame is the distance from Pearson to civilisation in a downtown TO context. So when, as tonight, I overnight near the airport to catch a flight in the morning, it's not really feasible to make it downtown.

C'est la guerre as they say.

People from the internet? Well, really. It's not like Walmart is it?

<disgusted, Richmond Hill>

Edit: on a more contrsuctive note, what time on the 9th do you get in to YYZ?
