Details:

What: May social night
When: Fri. May 28, 2010
Time: 7 PM
Where: The Pour House, 182 Dupont St.
Bring: appetite, thirst; cameras optional

Let's try a new place! The Pour House is an awesome (and very large) Irish pub on Dupont, four short blocks east of Dupont subway station.

We have a reserved spot to the right of the bar; it for sure holds about 25, but a little spill-over isn't the end of the world, in case our numbers push beyond that. And if it's warm enough out (which seems like a long shot based on this week's weather) we can move to their large patio.

They've said that we can do separate bills, which is also great (warning, of course, that it could "take a bit longer".)

Anyway, they have sandwiches, pizzas, pub food... oughtta be a good time!

See you there!

:)

Julian, there *are* some steps, inside the pub, to get up to the bar area. Three or four steps, I think.

I don't know the patio situation.

Looks like we'll be out on the patio -- the dude said something about the "upper level."

Great seeing everyone tonight! And thanks, Dan, for organizing! It was a beautiful night to sit outside (until my big allergic reaction to the trees or whatever hit.... ;) ) Still, lots of fun!

Thanks to all who came out! I agree it was a rather nice patio -- you'd hardly know you were in the city at all -- and a perfect night for it, too!

:)

Oh, and thanks to the Pentaxians who gave me Pentax lens advice!

Thanks Dan, had a great time. Wonderful release after a busy week. I wasn't the only one that needed it.
