Wednesday group dinner?

doctorwho · Post by **doctorwho** » Mon Aug 21, 2006 10:36 am

I figured this would be the easiest way to arrange get-togethers on Wednesday and Thursday (the Thursday thread will follow as soon as I get done with this one).

I know that some folks have stated in another thread when they would be arriving, etc., but we can start working on a meeting place (I assume it will be the hotel lobby) and dining location (TBD by consensus) which we can discuss here. Keep in mind that at most restaurants, a large party really should get a reservation ahead of time, rather than just show up at the door.

I'm in for both Wednesday and Thursday. As far as cuisine, anything but scrambled eggs and omelets will be fine by me!

Right, quiche it is!

(slow day at work, sorry)

I'm arriving late, so would probably miss Wednesday, but I'm up for Thursday.

I told Darren Trott that I'd meet him and Graham for a drink on Wednesday night, but I'm sure we can work it out that we can use that time towards dinner with everyone that wants to go. I'd like to hang out with as many of you guys as much as I can, so I'm up for dinner Wednesday and Thursday nights also.

All taken care of with Darren!

Maybe we can meet up with Graham for a "nightcap" after dinner.

As of this post, it looks like there are four of us (five, if Shari will be with Jeffrey) for Wednesday night dinner. I work nearby (1.6 miles) so the meeting time will not be a problem with me.

Joey, Jeffrey, and Darren, please indicate a good time to meet up at the hotel lobby (I'm assuming that the lobby would be the best place to meet).

I hope to be at the hotel for around 8ish. If that ties in with your plans, that would be cool. I'll try and give Darren a call on his mobile when I'm on my way. But be warned, I might fall asleep in my soup

7 to 7:15 would be good for me. I'm not sure if my wife will come yet, depends on what time she gets out of work tomorrow.

Keep me in the loop.

As far as I know Shari will be there with me. We are pretty free timewise, let us know. We will be staying at the Extended Stay America on Birch street across from John Wayne Airport, phone number is 949/851-2711. I figure that we'll be in around noon-1:00 Wednesday.

Unless anyone has a problem with that, let's make that the meeting time - Graham, either we'll wait for you, or we'll catch you when we get back.

Thanks all!! I'm just getting ready to leave for the airport. I didn't sleep much last night. I was so excited. I was just dreaming all night of hot soup

I'm hoping the rest of the weekend will be hot too
