Romeo Lunch, September 19, 2013

It's that time again when we plan on having lunch at an

eatery that lives up to the special requirements as dictated

by the elite tastes of our members i.e. beer and grub.

As such, the Committee in its infinite wisdom, revisited the

many locations of our past experiences and on a vote of 5 for,

1 against and 1 abstention it chose Kennedy's Irish Pub in

St. Agatha.

The Committee

Upon arriving at Kennedy's Pub we were greeted by the others who were 
already there and waiting for the doors to open at 11:30 am. 

After a few minutes we entered, and found tables together.

This was a good outing since 11 members joined for lunch.

Those attending were:
           
           Ken Mulholland                                   Carl Steinman
           Ron Lewis                                              Ross Shaver
           Ken Edgar                                              Wray Krompart
           Harry McCarthy                                   Rick Kieswetter
           Charlie Kagler                                       Bob Curry
           Dennis Savage 

After our toast we were treated to a few jokes by Ron and Ross.

As part of the discussion, we considered the status of holding lunches
during the winter months since so many of our members were going
south or on holidays during this time over an extended period. 
The resolution was that 'Beta' would cover the organizing over January 
and that we would suspend lunch dates until the middle of March when 
he returns.

Carl had some good news on the upcoming fitting for his new prosthesis.
He is still attending rehab exercise and is recovering nicely.

At this date we are missing our friend and lunch member, Phil, who is
busy with his own rehab. We hope to see him soon.

All in all a very pleasant outing for the Romeos.

Romeo Lunch, September 5, 2013

As we approach the last days of summer and head for what we

hope will be a magnificent autumn it is only fitting that the members

experience once again a new and exciting venue for our next lunch.

With that in mind, the Committee selected a lunch place that

meets these requirements and more. A little further afield than usual,

we travelled to 561 Hespeler Road South in Cambridge.

Check out the menu:

A final total of 6 members drove to the Beertown Pub and arrived

just before noon.

Once we were seated, 2 waitresses took our orders for drinks. 

If you like beers from around the world, this is the place to visit.

We lost count of the number on the drink menu that described

each and their contents.

This was followed by the lunch requests from the group which 

were as varied as the beers.

It also was a first for Ivan, who ordered Pad Thai as opposed to

his normal Fish and Chips. It also must be said that he ate his 

Thai lunch with chopsticks, with an expertise that could only

be matched by a native from Asia.

The banter around the table involved John Matthews telling a joke

and the usual gossip about members who did not attend.

Since no dessert or coffee was ordered we left for home and were

back by 1:30 pm.

All agreed that we should repeat our visit to this pub in the future

and let the other members experience our pleasant lunch area.

Those attending were:

John Matthews, George Heath, Ken Moorehead, Ivan Grosleau,

Ron Lewis, Dennis Savage
