People spend all that time going to AA and you post a project that starts with a tall boy. What's next? A house for wineos?

Now that you mention it, perhaps I'll hold off on posting my next project - coasters.

Hi Mag,

Your restaurant choice was superb.
The food was outstanding and the conversation was even better.
That was one of those evenings that come along once in a lifetime and I’m happy to say.......... I was there.

All the best
Gord
