I think I'll post the details when I get them regardless.

I'm thinking 26th

**McMurdo** · 19th November 07, 04:06 PM

Here are details for the first night

Tonight is our first Pub Crawl and we will be at Jack Astor's in Oakville/Mississauga. It's located on Dundas Street just East of Highway 403, here's a map and directions if you're unsure. The night will kick-off around 8:00 PM and will be an all-ages event - so everyone is welcome! As a reminder, we love cameras but do ask that you honour the no-autograph policy.

Sorry kilted warriors... I missed this one. I've been too busy to check my XMarks mail.

I'll try to make the next one.

It may not be the nicest day out there but at least it's Thursday - and by Thursday I mean Pub Crawl night!

We'll be at the Jack Astor's in Scarborough located at Highway 401 and McCowan Road. The night will once again kick-off around 8:00 PM and is open to fans of all-ages. There will be plenty of parking but please drive carefully.

I am actually flying into Toronto on 11/28 for a meeting in Mississauga on the 29th. So I am free both Wed & Thus nights. I will brink my kilt! Just let me know when and where!

Captain Karrot, it just so happens we are having a kilt night on the 28th in Burlington
at Emma's Back Porch, I'll see if I can't track down the post with a map of the place.

I just responded to McMurdo, but will include info here as well:

"Excellent! I will plan on being there. I am staying at a hotel at the airport (Weston Bristol Place Airport). How long do you think it will take to get there? I get in at 8:35, and waiting for luggage and clearing customs, it would probably be 9:30 or 10:00 before I could get there."

Captain, I'ts about 30 miles / 50 klicks from the airport to Burlington. You take the 427 South from the aiport to the QEW (Queen Elizabeth Way) towards Hamilton. The QEW will be BUSY but at least its not rush hour.

Pearson airport is another matter. The terminal is in greater Toronto but the gates are somewhere in The Prairies. You have to walk AND take shuttles for what seems like days. It'll take longer to get your luggage and rental car than it will to drive to the pub.

You guys have fun.

We now have the 407 which is an electronic toll road. That isn't usually isn't packed (because we can't afford it) and will take you right into Burlington (hop onto QEW Niagara for two minutes and exit at North Shore Blvd. You're now less than three km from Emma's and in a straight line.
