[swbatte]

Looks Great Bram.
Since arrival is by bus,do we all need to drive one?

 

[Bram]

Buddy probably don't know what an NSX is... so he assume we are arriving by bus

Bram

 

[omeys_berlina]

man, what happened to the burger and fries lol......:biggrin:

al-lacarte????

 

[ody]

I sure hope they give us more parking space than for 1 bus.
Gonna nead some funky lift system otherwise.

Shouldn't have read the agreement b4 lunch.
Now I'm even more hungry.

 

[Arshad]

Man that lunch sounds good!

I don't drink, so I'm going to have to pass on the wine + related tasting activities. I'll take sparkling water...

Bram: Can you inquire about parking arrangements and let them know that we'll be bringing exotic vehicles. It may be possible for them to cordone off a section of their lot for us if we ask nicely

 

[Red]

Guys! Come to Dinner the night before at the Club, that way its a whole weekend event and Dave and I can come (we both can't make Sunday)

Stu

 

[Bram]

Arshad, I'll check with them about cording off a section for us.

I hate to say this, but its looking like the rain gods might not be planning on playing in our favour on Sunday.

:-(
Hoping its too early to tell and they are wrong!!!

 

[silver_91]

Arshad we can meet at the Fortino's parking lot at 10:30 if you like.
Ange

 

[Arshad]

Ange, just pop by my house whenever you're ready to roll! I'll make sure I'm ready anytime after 10am...

 

[BTRTHNSX]

Just reviewing the thread and it looks like it is shaping up to be a great event.

The idea of sectioning off a section of parking lot is a must. We don't just want anyone parking beside us and this class of car deserves its own area ! Let me know how it goes Brahm. If required, tell the sales manager to call me.

Odey, the weather man can't tell what the weather was yesterday. Who cares. Think positive ! BTW, will you be joining us in oakville Odey ? The whole idea of this is the "cruise" meeting us for lunch is only 2% of this whole thing. See ya in Oakville

Riccardo

 

[ody]

Yeh, Yeh, I hear ya on the weather. Their track record isn't that good.
The only diff for us if it rains is whether I wash the car before the drive or after.

aka, we will be there regardless.

And yes, we will meet in Oakville / Timmies for 11.

Still working out if we can make Sat dinner or not.
Work in progress.
