I'm sick of Toronto, especially after trying to drive in to watch the freeking air show on labour day, sheesh. Someone needs to fly a plane over Toronto and spray some humaniside to thin the damn crowd out. Plus, I should be the only one allowed to have a car. There are far too many people driving around.

let someone else drive.. take the bus... train... don't get dumb commuters rob you of your city!!

I used to always drive in for work, but have been taking the train for the last half year, ever since gas went crazy. But commuting is pretty scary, just look at all these ZOMBIES at the train station! I have to wear a helmet to prevent them from eating my brains.

I foolishly moved out of town a couple of years ago and commuted ( from Kitchener!) I don't know how you do it....I had to move back before I was committed.

Hmmm I dunno from what I read it looks like it is only Jeff and I, which is sad and we should wait until a better day...But I don't know and he's not here...
We had settled on Spadina and DUndas at 11 Am last I read...Guess we'll figure it out later or in the AM

ok gang let's hold off until we can allow some others to come.. doens't look like too many people are available tomorrow (today).

next weekend is bad for me, but the one after will probably work.

oh man, sorry to see this didnt work out. Id definitely be up for trying another date though. Sounds like its pretty tough to organize around this time. :-S

Well I live downtown so it is pretty easy for me, whenever you guys wanna give it another go....before it gets too cold, hopefully :-)

Next weekend is out for me tho.

Lets get this straight though. Weekends definitely are best for everybody though? Anybody who would prefer to meet in the evening or during a weekday?

Mondays or Tuesdays I can do evenings, or daytime..I am usually off Mondays but it changes, I am pretty flexible...Just name a time and place and if I can do it I will!

Mondays, thursdays and fridays are always good for me in the evenings, and I like the sound of kensington. Ive intended to go there for a while now, so it would be kick ass to meet up with some of yall. Im just living up near York U, so its pretty easy for me to get into town too.

Weekday-evenings are easy if you live close by.
To allow more people to respond from farther distances, a Sat./Sun. afternoon is always better.

I'm not available for a weekend gtg, but I will be in TO September 25-27 (Monday to Wednesday). If anyone's interested, I should be available to get together for a few hours Monday afternoon, and all evening Tuesday starting around supper time (possibly available earlier in the afternoon).

If nobody's available, can you at least let me know where Kensington is, as this seems to be the place to go for these gtgs, as well as what's there to see and if it's even worth going during the week at the times I've indicated.

Hope to hear back from someone.
