Lightbulb Vancouver dinner, Stepho's

I'm hankering for Greek food ~ Stepho's, Rachel likes the idea a lot too. Anyone interested? I'm craving fried cheese & roast lamb with a heap of greek salad. I've already decided what I'll have. That's pathetic isn't it?

Possibilities:
Oct 23 or 24 (Tues/Wed)
Oct 31 (Wed) yes, it's Halloween,
Nov 7 (Wed)

If these dates don't work, how about Thursdays? I'm busy with ESL Oct 30 & Nov 6. (Tues)

Hope to hear from all the LC folks in the Lower Mainland.

Ruthie

LOL! It would have been pathetic if you decided to have the spanakopita, deep fried calamari and rice pilaf.

I'll get back to you on the dates. I think either the 23-24 would work for me. I'm away for 10 days after that.

Lightbulb but but but....

... perhaps a dumb question, but what is it with Wednesdays?!? Why not a Saturday or Sunday? Seriously, folks, I would very much like to know.

ps: isn't Karen teaching on the 24th? hmmm?

Thanks for reminding me Judi! I'm teaching on the 22, 23 and 24th, so all those dates are out, but have fun without me!

All dates are fine with me, too. I also don't mind a Sat. or Sun., as Judi suggests.

I want the fried cheese, lamb, and salad too! Yum!

Default Sat & Sun OK

Not too sure why we like Wednesdays. I'm ok with Sat or Sun. Does this mean you'll hop on the ferry and join us? Maybe even bring some other Vancouver Island LC people?

Sat Nov 3 is not good for me, there's a wedding reception.

I'd really love to join you and get the chance to meet all of you.

Oh yeah.....and dining out would be nice too!

The only dates that work for me are the 23/24. Unfortunately, I'll be out of town for the remainer of the dates.

Default Vote for a date

Ok,

I think we need a vote from those who can attend.
Either mid-week, Oct 23 or 24
Or Sunday Nov 4.

Judi, since you're the one that has to take ferries & has a longer travel time, perhaps you could line up a weekend dinner or lunch that fits with your schedule? ...like you did in June....and fill up the Magic LC bus as Karen suggested. I'd love to see you again. After all, I gotta love someone who catches me snorting in mid-laugh and makes me laugh some more. So when are you crossing the big pond next????

Default Count me out

I just realized that I'm scheduled to work both evenings of the 23/24th. Guess I'm going to have to pass on this dinner. Hopefully next time will work for me!

Cool what timing....

What a great idea! I'm going to see if I can lever anybody else to join me and we'll make a run for it and share the transport... my two-seater won't do so let's see what I can dig up!

An early dinner (winter ferry schedule is the PITS) or a late and leisurely lunch with (wishful thinking here) room for maybe a bit of sightseeing or whatever?

If it's *not* a run-for-the-border weekend (on behalf of the co-op), this would be delightful.
