Now that my transmission is repaired, I can drive long distance.  Is there meetings soon?

Hi William. Glad to hear you are car mobile, again

We haven't had any formal meetings for a number of years, now.

Hopefully we will have a PLUG Mug get together at one of the coffee shops in Peterborough, maybe on a weekend, sometime very soon.

regards

Bill

I need an excuse for scenic tour.  Any plan for meeting?

Hi William. Let's see if anyone else is able to coffee and chat meetup.

Saturday afternoon, this week, Oct 26 at 2 pm would be good for me to attend at the Tim Hortons on Monaghan Rd, Peterborough.

Anyone else that can make it? Let us know.

Hi folks, I would like to make it to the meeting on Sat 26, and have transportation available this time. Hope we get a few more attending. Tom.

Ok Tom.  I will post post Friday evening, if the meetup is a go for Sat afternoon.
So far it is just you and me.

I have another 'celebration of life' to attend. People my age are dropping like flies. Been to at least 6 in 2024. Sorry.
Growing up from childhood and becoming an adult is highly overrated.

Ok, sorry Tom, it doesn't look like there is enough interest for a meetup for a coffee and chat, for Saturday.

So there will not be meetup tomorrow at Tim Hortons at Monaghan rd in Peterborough.

Sorry to hear that, Buster. How is it that you're outlasting most? What's your secret? Booze, women, cigarettes?

What about next Saturday? I can make it then. Or most times during the week. I'd suggest even the daytime since most of us coming to these things are retired or dead (I jest) on the inside like myself, but William works. We could do an evening. I'm easy. That's how my wife got me.

Well, I'm between jobs now, and am busy on Saturdays.  Sundays are nice for long scenic drive, though.

1. Choose your parents wisely.
2. Remember we are primarily animals that walk, bend, push, lift. Too much sitting destroys the body.
3. Remember we belong outside. Urban life is a new development. Trees are your friends.
4. Remember we are social beings. Connections to a few friends seems to encourage a longer life.
5. Laughter is the best medicine.
6. And my favourite: talk to strangers. People can be magical. And magic almost always helps.

I have my roleplaying group on Sunday afternoons. Sunday evening would work but not sure if you like driving at night. :)

I'll leave it up to Bill to forge ahead.
