I think it has to be dinner for hrf and probably others.  It should be an early dinner so it will be much easier to make a reservation.  That time involves traffic problems on a Friday, but that isn't a big deal.  I can probably make it, but if it is near Yonge I'd probably TTC.

Hi mke.  It looks like the conversation is still on the Canadian Connection thread.  We will have to get them to move over here.  At least I will update this page when we make a decision.

I have made a reservation for all who are able to join us on Friday, November 6 at 5:30 .... It is at The Keg at 4841 Yonge Street (on the NE corner) in the Sheppard Centre. There is underground parking and their web site says that parking will be validated as well. The reservation is under the name "Helen" and their phone number is 416-225-2841. I know some can't join us until after 6 but we won't be ordering dinner before everyone arrives. If you haven't yet indicated that you are joining us please let me know so that I can update the reservation.

The reservation is for 5:30 ... in the name of "Helen" ... but I'm sure they'll seat you earlier if you arrive before 5:30   I know some people can't get there until after 6 but that's ok

and that photo is one of the reasons I want to be there - to meet such an amazing looking group of women in real! I'll be the one with the grey hair - OK, the grey wig.

Now know that I won't be early on account of an opportunity to see my Toronto son. Should be on time though.
