I am going to be making a triangle trip to Ottawa and Montreal after February 10th. Details remain to be worked out, but I’m stopping in Bancroft for a party on Saturday the 10th, and then heading east along Highway 7. Anyone want to meet?
Sure, could be a preparation for Sugardope.
That would be good, since unfortunately it’s looking like I’ll not be able to make it for Sugardope (they’re holding Federal Council at the same time).
When is Sugardope? I’d like to meet a few Montreal dopers, though I don’t think I can make it to anything in Ottawa. Although I do plan to go up there at the end of February, but that’s just to visit a friend! Since I have seen her twice in the past 4-5 years, I figure I owe the whole trip to seeing her!
Here is the thread for this year’s Sugardope.
I’m in!
Incidentally, I have ties to all of the places you mentioned - I live in Montreal now, I used to live in Ottawa, my Dad has a cottage near Bancroft on Papineau Lake, and Highway 7 is a major artery running through my hometown of Peterborough… 
My hometown is Peterborough as well! :eek:
This is too weird.
I just read the SugarDope thread… looks like I’ll be on another course that weekend and the following ones, so this trip may be it.
I’ll know more after talking to a couple of Ottawa (non-Doper) people this week. And I need to book holidays… and I don’t want to do that until my performance review at work is over. :: shudder ::
That is so cool. I wonder if we know any of the same people.
And as kfl knows, my grandparents were from Peterborough.
Probably not… we moved away when I was seven.
Depending on exact date/time, I’m interested.

Saturday and Sunday evenings I’m in the office, but may be able to duck out for an hour. Keep us advised…
So, when do you expect to arrive in town ?
Alas! Alas! Thanks to certain family events, I must postpone this trip until March. However, I have put a firmer date on it in March. I will be taking a building-code course at Loyalist College on the last two wekends of March, and sometime during the week between (the 26th to the 29th of March), I will be making my visits.

Psssst! Everyone in Toronto!
Let’s all get together when Sunspace has left and plot evilly behind his back!
But how do you know that it is not I who plots evilly behind a smokescreen of misdirection? Eh? Eh?
Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha…
coughs
<innocent look>
So now we have to counter-plot evilly as well?
All this evil stuff is so time-consuming… sigh
But look at it this way… we are far and away the style leaders!
Well!
I will be in Montréal on Tuesday (and probably Wednesday, pending accomodation Tuesday night). Anyone still want to meet? (Sorry, I know it’s short notice…)
This is what happens when you absolutely need to get out of Toronto to save your sanity…
I’ll meet you! When and where?
