Summer babblers gathering in Toronto!!
June 25, 2009 - 6:54am
Hey folks!
Who can come to the summer gathering of babblers in Toronto?
Meet Michelle, oldgoat, rasmus, jrose and me! Rumour has it Kim may be making an appearance.
When: Friday July 17th
Time: 7:00 pm and onwards!
Where: The Old Nick, 123 Danforth. TTC: 1/2 block east of Broadview subway station. By car: very close to the DVP exit at Bayview/Bloor.
Hope to see Toronto, GTA and visiting babblers there!
I hope we get the same server as last time. :)
I hope you tipped him REALLY well.
Why of course - I always do!
Hmmm, this may fit into my schedule quite well.
Yay! It'll be great to see you again, PB.
I've been pathetically absent on babble as of late, but I'm back, and I'm pretty sure I'll be able to make it on the 17th!
I'm planning to get there, but can't commit 100% quite yet.
YES YOU CAN. And you will.
Radiorahim, Polunatic, N.R.Kissed, Sineed (among others)...you're all expected there too.
The moderators have spoken! :D
Well, I'm totally clear. I've found a place to crash in toronto, and i don't have to work til' 5 the next day!
What part of the city is this anyway? Heard of danforth but aint that downtown?
It's Broadview subway R_P. About 3 stops east of Bloor station and the bar is 5 minutes from the subway.
Oh...Stargazer too! You're coming, right? And R_P, it's kind of far out of your neck of the woods (I'm closer to you since I live in the west end, but not as far west as Rexdale) but you're more than welcome!
Im not gonan ride a subway for like 3 hours still lol
edit - TBH like it low on the priorities not even gonna lie if nothing else goin on which it proly will be I might drop by but I dont think I will n I never heard of braodview station lol. See the roads I know are like Finch, Martingrove, Kipling, Islington, Westway, Eglington, Dixon, n Rexdale. Could add more but that basic really just I stay in the hood mayb hit up brampton but I really dont know that area at all lol.
Straight across the Bloor line, it's only a half hour one way - three stops past Yonge. How long does it take you to get to the subway?
See i aint got a clue where bloor is heard of yonge. Hmm fastest is like 40-45min on 191 if it running well to Kipling station. Give it like a hour cuz if im waiting less it means it rush hour anyway so u know. Other routes (46,45, 45E take even longer still)
Kipling the 1st stop when going on the green line on the map farthest west.(still aint gonna lie this is all the times I been on the subway once in grade 6, then think once last year, once this year lol)(n I only been downtown like a max of 3-4 times so I dont know the area at all)
Gabba gabba hey! The Ramones live not far from Broadview and Danforth. Maybe I can make it too.
Obviously, you people all knew that I would be visiting my sister in Don Mills that week.
And that I was heading home on Thursday the 16th...
How can I refuse a direction like that from the moderator Godesses (and Gods)?
The first Strongbow is on me!
radiorahim u a brotha g?
I'll be there. This time for sure.
Yay! It will be nice to meet you in person at last, Stargazer!
You too Maysie! We'll have a blast!
Hmmmight have to show up and show off photos of the new littlest bacchanae
There ought to be one in Montreal too !
Isn't Montreal in Toronto? ;)
ok Some directions are needed and yo actually I turned 19
recently so itz good but if ppl are gonna drink what about those who like to toke?
Well, we're only concerning ourselves with what happens in the pub. :)
Anyhow, here is a google map for those who need directions.
Bacchus, that would be nice! You should show them off here, too. :)
PFRD, we should see whether Montreal babblers would be interested in getting together too, in Montreal!

that doesnt show bus routes lol n aint there another name for the mcdonald cartier freeway I know the other one n use it aint it like the 401 or something?
Yeah, it's the 401.
Bus routes? You can get to Kipling Station, right? Get there, and then take the subway line east all the way to Broadview station. That's Broadview and Danforth on the map.
