I’m thinking it might be a good idea to start planning another TronnaDope. Paging Toronto Dopers and anyone who might be visiting our fair city! ---

I’m in! 🙂 Maybe it’ll help me get over my angst from missing the big NYC Dopefest by a week (not that I don’t love all y’all Tronnadopers… but it would’ve been cool to meet up with a whole bunch of other Dopers in a whole 'nother city). ---

Sure. I also just handed in my notice at my current job, so as of November 15th my schedule’s pretty open for a month or so. ---

Gimme enough lead time please. I would love to come up. ---

> [@GingerOfTheNorth](#): > > Gimme enough lead time please. I would love to come up. That would be cool! I’m hoping to hear from at least **Cerowyn** , though; he alternated between Toronto and Tokyo and I’d like to arrange things for when he’s on this side of the Big Pond. Also paging **Kid\_A** and **Kythereia** and **Cowgirl** and at least half a dozen others. And November 14th, the newly-renovated Art Gallery of Ontario opens! ---

Ego surfing pays off again! I just found this thread. I’d be up for meeting at some point, for sure. I’m in Toronto until at least January. ---

The weekends of Nov 15 and 29 are quite impossible for me; the intervening weekend might work. December might be better. ---

That’d be fun - got a date in mind? I’m busy, but at least I’m in the city for a while. ---

I’ve got my fingers crossed that I’ll be able to make it out. ---

I’d like to put in a bid for sometime in November and preferably on a weekend, as my December is looking pretty ugly work-wise. I might still be able to find time in December, mind you, but I can’t make any promises. ---

Well, I was holding off a little until I hears from others, but now that **Cerowyn** has checked in, things may firm up a little. How about the weekend of the 22nd? The Saturday might be good. Would that be too soon? ---

The weekend of the 22nd is totally out for me, unfortunately. ---

22nd _might_ work for me… let me see what I can do. ---

Just feel like giving this a bump… Does a Saturday or Sunday morning breakfast sound good to anyone? ---

Sundays are better for me than Saturdays (I teach at 9 AM on Saturdays.) And I think it’s a great idea. ---

Of course, now that it’s February we have to figure this out all over again. 🙂 ---

Oooh… this weekend breakfast thingie intrigues me. I’m equally partial to Saturdays and Sundays, so I’ll happily present myself at the agreed-upon time and location once we sort it all out. ---

Not sure about breakfast, considering how long it’d take to get into the city. But I do want to try a meet, so I’ll keep an eye on this thread. I do usually get up early, so it’s not impossible either. Where’s good for breakfast? 🙂 ---
