Hi all,
How about a GTG in the Market sometime in May?
We should be newly-minted grandparents early in the month.
We leave for Provence on June 13.
Any Ottawa area ST'ers want to meet for coffee/lunch/dinner?

Hi Doug, I would definitely be up for a GTG in May. And congratulations on the grandchild!
I'll be in Ottawa much of the month, although I'll be in Alberta May 16 to May 25. But any other date would work for me.
And Jerry, we'll have to try another GTG when you get back, I'd love to hear about your Italy trip. It sounds fantastic!
Cheers,
Sandra

Hi Sandra,
Looks like after the 25th would be better for us.
How about Saturday, May 31 or Sunday, June 1 for lunch?

Hi Doug, either of those dates would work for me!
Since you have to travel to Ottawa, do you want to pick the date and time? Then we give this thread a concrete date and see if anyone else in the area is free to join us.
I'll be interested to hear about your travel plans.
Cheers,
Sandra

Hi Sandra,
June 1, 1:00pm - OK with you?
We may have another couple joining us. They are not on ST, but we are spending a week together in France later in June.
I originally suggested the Market area, but maybe you have another suggestion.

Hi Doug, June 1st at 1 p.m. is great for me. And it would be fun to meet your travelling companions as well.
The Market works for me, do you have a favourite place? Domus is always one good possibility.
Cheers,
Sandra

Hi Sandra,
Domus is fine with us.
So June 1, 1:00pm at Domus at 87 Murray Street in the Market in Ottawa. Agreed?
If that's OK with you let's get the title changed to see if anybody else is interested. Any idea how to do that?

That sounds just fine, Doug!
I see the moderators have already changed the title of our GTG thread. Thanks and Whew! I wouldn't have had any idea how to do it myself!
A bit closer to the date, maybe we can compare notes and when we know how many we'll be, I'll call Domus and make a reservation.
Cheers,
Sandra

Hi Sandra,
Our friends are unable to make it.
Trolling for more - surely there are other Ottawa-area STers available.

Hi Doug, I've just returned from a week in Alberta, so I'm sorry I'm slow in responding!
It's too bad that your friends can't make it. I'm hoping a colleague from France, in Ottawa right now, might be able to join us.
Cheers,
Sandra

Hi all,
The people in the accompanying photo enjoyed a very pleasant lunch last Sunday in the market area in Ottawa at
Domus Cafe on Murray Street. Both the location and the participants made for a very enjoyable time.
