No thanks are necessary. I wouldn't deem the trip from Oshawa to Toronto to be an especially arduous trek, despite the difficulties with the train.
I think next time I'll probably drive in. I thought the train would be the more expedient option, but that didn't exactly turn out to be the case.
Anway, it was a lot of fun. It was good meeting some of you in person. My plans for the night had been basically to sit at home and do my homework and the whole affair only ended up costing about $25, which I think is more than reasonable for a night out in the big city. I would've liked to have made it to brunch too, but the interview went well so hopefully it was worth missing aberkok's mad melodica stylings for.
I liked the pub, it was just really noisy. Fun fact : Our host/bouncer apparently went to school with Ali Stewart (Bono's wife). He said that he'd occasionally gone out drinking with Bono 'back home' and that their house cost six million euros. I was speaking with him (the host, not Bono) when I went outside.
unclephil - it was actually quite a mild night, at least at the time that picture was taken. I didn't get in until shortly after 1 am and it was quite a bit colder by then.
EDIT - And for those not in the know, the group photo above is Siege, aberkok, amonkie and Charlatan in the front row, with fresnelly and myself in the back.
For some reason, my hair looks
really red in that picture. It is red, but not fire engine red.
