Greg, the reason we have chosen Townhall Coquitlam is because it's central...not central Surrey or central Vancouver, it's because it's right off the highway and central to people east from Abbotsford and west to whistler. Why ruin a good thing bud....

Because each time I suggest the Town Hall again someone complains and while we have been there, there were grumblings about having it somewhere else next time.
I think I'll give up after this and let someone else arrange it next time, and those of us who like the Hall can continue going there.

Surrey is too far for me to get to.
I like the Townhall Coquitlam pub.

You know , people weren't complaining - they really wanting to join in ! Also , just wondering if it was possible to change time or place & still work . Don't take everything personally . I know you were trying to accommodate & thank you . I know you don't want to cross a bridge as much as me but I did it . I think what you originally set up was awesome . Last meeting (that I didn't see you at) there was talk of next meeting in N.Van (which I would pass on, 2 bridges) . That's why Laurie commented .
So , to sum up : thanks for organizing , if it runs late (after 5) hopefully I'll see you again . Laurie , I'd be all in for Big Ridge , hopefully you organize something on this side of the river !!!!

Oh Fresgos is delicious! My parents had been taking us there every so often since I was little.

I was hoping I would actually be in town for the January one (especially if you guys pick the date before the 15th of December LOL) since their always a week off from when I do hit the ferry... uggh.

I would say an absolute no to crossing the fraser river. But I would 100% cross for Fresgos, yumm!

IMO I wouldn't set foot inside "Big Ridge Brewing Company Pub". When I was between school and jobs I started working for a post construction cleaning company and ended up being on of the ones who did that restaurant before they opened. They had so many problems even getting a permit to open because of how poorly they were doing things.... Just so many little things I would NEVER want to eat there no matter how good people think the food tastes. I saw those kitchen appliances before they opened and I saw the shortcuts taken and crap they use to "clean" with. What they use in and around the big tanks for their brews. Where the sewer outputs are in comparisons to intakes and bleh gross never.

Plus traveling down 152nd is the biggest pain in the ass. I would rather drive to Chilliwack then anywhere past Guilford on 152nd.

I still stand for what I said when you guys first started planning these. Coquitlam is a nice central location. Even Burnaby. or New West.
I would absolutely try and attend if you picked townhall. Like its central! Its right there!
