Mini meet-n-greet

[cinjay]

Erebus and I are going to meet up. Instead of just the two of us, and with all the recent Delica purchases in Calgary (me included). We thought we should just plan a mini meet-n- greet. I was thinking of Peter’s Drive Inn for a fairly central location. I like that they are RHD friendly, and have good milkshakes to boot We think that Friday the 12th @ 6:00-7:00pm sounds about right. I will be bringing the kids with me (5 & 3yr old), so anyone with little one’s… Bring them along.

Looking forward to meeting everyone,

Jason

...Peter’s Drive Inn...

I love Peter's, and it's definitely one of the things I miss about Calgary. Every time I drive through town for a visit I make sure I stop at Peter's. Hope you have a good turnout.

I'll be there, probably with my co-pilot. For those who aren't sure where Peters' is, the address is 219, 16th Ave NE, on the south side of the road. Their website, with link to a map, is http://www.petersdrivein.com/

Thanks for arranging a mini-meet! It sounds like fun. I'll talk it over with Joanne but I suspect we will be there.

Erebus

Thx for the invite... I'm still Delica-less so going to an event like this will make me

I'll go to the next one when my Deli is running again...

Thx,

At the moment I plan to attend, however there's a risk that will be vetoed by my significant other as I seem to remember her yabbering about something or other happening that night... but she didn't actually put it on the calender, so we shall see...

btw... I didn't realize it until you said so, but I do believe Peters is the only drive through I can think of with windows on both sides....

Calgary and region is getting crowded, I didn't realize we had so many delis in the area. I sent a PM to 17 regional Deli owners that I could think of, to let them know about this meet. Didn't realize we had that many. So far, I've received 5 regrets, and 5 yeses (includin cinjay and myself). Better than a kick in the head. Hopefully, some of those who haven't responded yet will be able to make it.

I remember when Christine arranged the "Lower Mainland Mini Meet" which transpired at a McDonald's Car park at Boundary & Lougheed on the Vancouver/ Burnaby boundary (hence the name) ~ there were about twelve responses on the thread, four of which were bowing out. we figured roughly eight would turn up. When I arrived (15 minutes late) there were around 22 Delicas lined up in two rows. So I guess what I am saying is it is really hard to say... smiles.

I think our biggest meet to date in Calgary area was about 6...

[cinjay]

Yes, we will have to get everyone all lined up if we can. (You will be critiqued on your parking. Backed in, and the front lined up with others ) Someone bring a camera. Mine is MIA

A good time was had by all. Although the turnout was smaller than hoped for, lots of milkshakes and burgers where consumed.

From left to right we have:
doc (furthest away)
cinjay
Erebus
Green1
Jungle Jon (closest to camera)

cinjay's in an interesting colour scheme: dark blue over charcoal grey. I like it.

Hmm, if cinjay and doc had changed places, it would have been in order from newest to oldest too, Jungle Jon being the first one to get a Delica (although not this one)

It was nice to see and meet everyone. We will have to do it again. The weather could have been a little better, but on the bright side, it kept the lines small at Peter's
