Well, there’s me. I work in Portland, live in Hillsboro. I know there are a lot of others, for I had the fun of meeting them at the first Portland Dopefest earlier this year. But I will allow them to introduce themselves in whatever manner they desire. ---

Hi **Tapswiller,** I work in Portland and live in Newberg. Welcome to the boards. (Normally I would finish up with an incredibly witty and insightful comment but I’m kinda grumpy these days.) ---

I live and go to school in Portland… just moved here. **Atreyu** was kind enough to contact me when I started on the boards. =) Anyhow… yes, I exist, I really do! Even if I haven’t posted in far too long. ::nods:: ---

The Horse Brass Pub is the wonderful little place we met at last time. It has many brewskis on tap for those who tipple brewskis, and a good selection of English food for those who don’t. When should we meet, folks? ---

I’ll reserve judgement on whether there is such a thing as _good_ English food, but I’m free this Friday night. ---

[Homer Simpson] Mmmmmmm…Scotch eggs… [/Homer Simpson] Count me in. Weekends are best for me, although this upcoming weekend looks a little crowded for me. ---

No problemo. Horse Brass has good food and non-alcoholic drinks also. It looks like it would have to be next weekend, maybe Saturday? ---

**Merc** is looking out for me. Where exactly _is_ Horse Brass? I can’t drive, so I’ll be on my good old friend the bus. As long as I’ve got an address, I can be there on time. Looking forward to it. 🙂 ---

**January** , here is the official website of [The Horse Brass](http://www.horsebrass.com/). It lists the address as 4534 S.E. Belmont. Entering the address at [Mapquest](http://www.mapquest.com) will give you a map of the immediate vicinity, including nearby cross streets. I’d link to the map itself, for some reason it wouldn’t work here. Don’t let anybody scare you off the Scotch eggs. They are seriously yummy.
