Has Black Tie gone to the 'Dark Side'?.. :cry: ....
Title: December GTG
Post by: BlackTieTD on November 18, 2004, 01:45:13 pm
nope, saving the good rabbit (black tie) from the salt. the GTI has already seen many ontario winter road treatments. i picked it up a few weeks ago.

Ooh! I think I can make this one! I have to be at Brock on Monday to do my MA Thesis Defence so I'll be staying in Grimsby on the weekend anyway :).
Maybe someone can help me fix my Odometer?? :oops: ;)

Post by: Benjibird on December 04, 2004, 06:59:17 am
Dr. Diesel, where is your shop?  I'm new on this site and don't know where you are located.  Times?  Please advise.
Title: December GTG
Post by: Dr. Diesel on December 04, 2004, 07:24:39 am
i'm in hamilton. I'm still out in vancouver now, not sure of the return date. Should be before the 18th! Everyone interested in coming, PM me. In the interest of shop security, i'll not post it's location here.

What time is everyone meeting?  There is a TDI GTG on the same day in Rexdale (not far from Hwy 27 and Martingrove).  It should be finished by lunch time, and I would like to attend both.
Title: December GTG
Post by: Dr. Diesel on December 07, 2004, 04:07:07 am
i'd say anytime after 10 am until whenever.
Who's bringing what? snacks/drinks etc.

This is all based on the assumption that i'll eventually be back from vancouver. :roll:

Post by: srivett on December 08, 2004, 02:17:29 pm
It looks like I'll be there.  Maybe somebody can drag in a set of 4 or 8 13" wheels for me to buy. :)  

Cheers, Steve

So where is it??
Please email me the details:

Thanks! :D

Ok y'all. I'm finally back from Vancouver. The longest two weeks of my life. Oddly enough, it felt more like on month! :P
So we're on for the 18th. Hopefully I'll have had a chance to tidy up a bit, this trip put me way behind schedule.

Bring your own seating if you feel like you'll need to sit. I've got a two burner hot plate and a big pot of chilli. Chris-pl said something about sausages and some drinks. Skully said salad and diesel dogs. Bring whatever you want.

We'll have to do directions over the private message thing on here, my email's not working properly right now.

Anytime after 10 am is good. If you haven't already PM'd me for directions, please do so now.

How long will everyone be hanging around?

I've been 'volun-told' for morning Christmas errands & probably won't make till noon :?

Title: GTG
Post by: VW Scully on December 17, 2004, 04:54:51 pm
Hey;
I should be there around noon too :). My choice of food may change a bit though since my boyfriend ate all the Veggie hotdogs :P but I have a baguette and some chips and some dip, so we won't starve  :lol:

Ok, that was fun :D
What better way to spend a Saturday then watching a sleep -deprived zombie work on a car & try to remember what he's doing?! :wink:

Title: December GTG
Post by: Dr. Diesel on December 18, 2004, 07:41:23 pm
Best turnout yet! Thanks for the food folks. The chilli was excellent Simon, Chris' sausages didn't seem to last long either, and all the other goodies.
It was great seeing familiar faces, and meeting new people. Perhaps we'll do another one in February to break up the winter a little.
Thanks for coming out!
