I’ll actually be in Montréal then, but my boyfriend doesn’t want to. He’s a lurker, so he doesn’t want to have to stand outside and look in the window. ---

Bumping this back up. I may be in the area around that time and this way I’ll be able to find this thread. ---

Unfortunately it turns out I can’t go after all. ☹ The NDP’s federal council is that weekend. Poop. ---

A post from this thread has disappeared. It doesn’t look like I’m on for this. I’m back to work and it’s just not easy to find childcare for a weekend for our boys, with all of my family 2500+ miles away. ---

I’m still planning on going! And I’m bringing my female counterpart, as well as two other friends who are in school north of the border at the moment. ---

Well, we’re a week and a half out. Are there plans? Who’s going? Who’s bringing the goat? ---

Sorry for the delay. You wouldn’t believe the last few weeks I just had :mad: So, the reservations have been made under the name Cecil Adams at the **cabane a sucre L’Hermine, 212 rang St-Charles in Havelock** for 12 noon (and as for the goat, they have goats on location as well as llamas). For supper on the 16[sup]th[/sup], I was thinking of going back to **Da Giovanni at 572, Ste-Catherine E** at 8 PM, since reservations are not required. and for Saturday evening, I made reservations at **Rotisseries St-Hubert BBQ, at 1019 Ste-Catherine E** for 7h30. And **matt** I know you can’t come for the sugaring off, but Isuppose you could make an appearance on one of the evenings ? As for transportation, I am still trying to contact my friend Maf to see if he can provide a lift for the pedestrians Montreal Dopers. ---

Sadly, no. I’m gone from the 16th to the 18th (I might be back in town by dinnertime on the 18th, Sunday, though.) ---

At this point, I can confirm that I will be in the area on that weekend and, barring unforeseen circumstances, will attend. ---

Awesome! I will be four people total. I’m going to start starving myself now, in anticipation. We’ll be Saturday-only people, though. ---

I’m making arangements to be there Friday evening, but there’s a small chance I won’t be able to make it until quite late. I’ll be up there for the sugaring off for sure, though. ---

I might be able to make it for half an hour on Saturday night because it’s not too far from the office – but yuck, chicken n ribs (where’s that damn puke smiley?) – don’t save me a seat for dinner, I’ll eat before I show up. ---

So, I’ve finally been able to reach my friend **Maf** (conflicting schedules) and he will provide us Montreal Dopers (and guests, if needed be) with a lift on Saturday. We should be leaving from the Lionel-Groulx metro at 11, so that we can arrive there with no rush. ---

About 6 or 7 he told me, but that would be tight, 5 should be the comfortable number… ---

How long does it take to get there from Montreal? Actually, I’ll be driving from [Bishops University](http://www.ubishops.ca/) in Lennoxville. Anyone know how far that is from Montreal? That’d be good to know, too! 🙂 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/son-of-sugardope-rides-again/388130.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/son-of-sugardope-rides-again/388130.md?page=3)
