    Maxville would be great, it's just a little far for most of us.

    I don't know about pre-Fergus, but here's an idea for post-Fergus.

    It's a little far for me as well. Given all the recent closures on the 400 series highways, I'm opting to Give the big smoke a major detour. I figure I can make better time going cross country.
    All the best guys see you in Fergus. I will be setting up on Wednesday.
    cheers

    There's a pub here in Burlington just off the QEW thatI think might serve the purpose called the Black Bull.

    As for Wompet's suggestion, I think it's about time get together in the States. Do you think they'd let us in?

    That sounds like a great idea, I was thinking about asking you you were in Cobourg for the games there not long ago correct, if so you met my Dad, Mike Allardyce. I was talking to him after the games, he just had to tell me that kilts were not only tartan but that he had seen them in leather.

    Other than that there isn't much time.

    Had a great time in Cobourg, though sorry, hard for me to put a face to a name. I managed to talk to a number of folk about kilts as well as the solar power rig.

    Yep I remember seeing your dad. As Grant would say "The old guy" with reference to me so I will claim that I need a little prodding to remember some things but not all things

    Maxville

    The Maxville games has a large beer tent but it seems to be more of a beer throwing mosh pit. I've heard some stories about that beer tent. I like a good evening but bad music and ducking $5.00 a cup half empty beer cups seems to be a little over my head.
