Your know who you are!!

Some of us oldtimers, hee hee, had to start our own threads, Waaaaaaaay back just to make it look like the 'Canadian forum' had more than 1 thread. But now, holy crap!!! Canadians are Rockin!!! So, I'm suggesting that all us 'oldtimers', can converse on one thread, hopefully saving time. I'm not sure if it will catch on, but I thought it was worth a try............................................................................

Dingus......It's been a long time since I have heard that word. Lol

Yeah, I don't even know if i've ever really used that word... it just seemed suiting to this guy.

Hey guys! What's up!?

I'm getting so lost here, I'm not even posting anymore. It feels like I'm so out of the loop, I can't even catch up.

What's new? Who else are we missing?

Mandi

Nah....you're in the loop, my friend! No worries, I've been posting the last few days enough for you and me!!!

(that's what happens when I'm home from work!!) LOL

:nervous

Hi: You are in the loop. It is Easter weekend and have been busy but have been checking the posts now and then. Happy Easter (what's left of it). Doddie

Try ordering an appetizer only with one small glass of wine. As the rest of the group will be ordering meals, you shouldn't be looked upon critically by the staff.

This is one I can answer as I am in the hospitality feild!!!

You can think of it this way as well... "how much are they making from your App and Wine? is it more than if you didn't order anything? or if you didn't go? YES it is! So it is you who are doing them the service of visiting their establishment. And if they give you a hard time about your order, you can come here and tell ALL of us! and look at ALL the patron they WON"T be getting!

You are going to enjoy yourself, don't let some SNOOTY :huytsao server ruin it for you!

I know what you mean Mandi!!! You are certainly not outta the loop, your like, ahhhh, ehmmm,......KING OF THE LOOP:hail: . LOL

More like FROOT LOOP!!!!

:paranoid

Speaking of Fruit loops,

I had an amazing time in Montreal and managed to maintain my weight. I enjoyed shopping in both Montreal and Vermont - got some new clothes (one size smaller! yeah!!)

How was everyones Easter?

Glad u had an enjoyable time Angel Bear and kudos on the clothes!!!

Ummmmmm you didn't mention the size!!!! Curious minds we have!

Hi Yoda,

I bought some Medium Tops/pants and size 10 pant suit - Yes I was so SHOCKED but it was a nice surpise. I'm scared to change my ticker - I'm waiting a few days to see if I've leveled off (I'm sooooo close!)

Congrats Angel! I don't remember how much you weigh... but I think I remember that you are tall... just wondering at what weight YOU're getting into 10's!!??

I might be able to find some pants at a 'normo' store, but shirts... I don't think I could even fit into the biggest size comfortably. I guess I must have a big upper body?

Easter: didn't get to go home, so... bleh. Extra day off was nice. I'm glad Cadbury eggs will soon disappear (but not before they're clearance priced :faint: ! )

We haven;t heard from Kimmson or Neeraugh.

I believe Kim is frequenting the canadianlapbanders Yahoo group now... and Neenagh!!! How did I miss her thread?! I will dig it up!

Nice to hear. I am currently on vacation. I cannot drink wine anymore. I used to order 2-3 glasses per meal. I cannot order an App and a main course anymore so for now all I am ordering is the main course and to boot I usually ask for a dogie bag. If I don't ask for the dogie bag it's because the meal is not good enough to try to eat later. We stopped at a Ruby Tuesday restaurant for lunch the other day and all I ordered was the salad bar. I left half of my salad on the plate. I am embarrased to be wasting food. I left so many restaurants in the last week with most of my food on my plate. I was ashamed. So many people with not enough food to eat and I was the cause of sooo much waste. Has anyone been able to go to a restaurant and be able to chose something without waste?
