And those who would like to go a little later can as well the meal would be the central time 5 pm is probable early for most people having dinner so there may well be a lull at the restaurants, if we are done by 6 I think the crowds at the show might just be a bit smaller because then those people would be going to dinner . Just a thought

    Hi Jim,
    I wondered how long it would take to spot the date day thing.
    Let's see what others think of your plan.

              If Saturday is the day .....I guess. I still have to figure out if I'm coming down. There are a couple things I need to do (buy) at the show.

                Hi Tom,
                I thought Saturday suited you?
                What the hell would you do with a 6 cylinder BMW anyway

                    I think, I have Jim's cell number and I have Phil's cell number. I'll call either one before I hit the show and find out what's going on.

                              Just a thought...

                              What about meeting up someplace before going to the show (brunch), then everyone can stay as long as they wish at the show?
                              Might be easier than trying to get everyone together later for supper. We could even meet up away from the downtown core, then head down for the show.
                              If some want to meet up again later for supper or cocktails later, no problem.
                              Just an idea. Watcha think?

                                Hi Tom,
                                At the January show we went for an early dinner and then to the show, so we could use the discount coupon that applied after 5 pm.
                                This time there does not appear to be a discout coupon other than Women get in free on Friday night.
