FABAC February Meeting report

      We met upstairs at the Freddy curling club on Rookwood Ave. in Freddy at Namaste Restaurant.  We had a large private area with plenty of room. This was appreciated by all after packing in like sardines last month.  The extra room encouraged table hopping and visits.  Sandi & Larry are to be thanked for the excellent choice of dinner venues.

  • John D. et all has planned a couple of extensive summer tours. Plans are still a bit fluid but these should be great fun.
  • Gary passed around some fridge magnets with the club logo that had been made by John D. (same gent as mentioned above).  These can be used as advertisements for the club and it's suggested that members stick them on their own cars or possibly on British cars seen in the wild.  My own tests on a similar magnet show that they will stay on a car.  They don't do well in the rain however.
  • Again, there was some discussion on advertising for the club.  Version 2,405 of the club's brochure was passed around and many revisions were penned on it. Watch for an updated version to appear here soon.
The food received an enthusiastic thumbs up from all, and combined with the large private area, I'm sure it'll become a favourite.  

The next meeting will be at the El Mariachi Restaurant hidden off of the Forest Hill road.  Watch for details.
