LOL -- not laughing at your misfortune but it's good to know that I am not the only person who has done this! Fortunately, I was an SE at the time, so they were pretty good at fixing it for me without a penalty! -- catgirl
Sorry to burst your bubble, but that was a joke - Adam
Damn! And I thought I had someone to commiserate with. I typed in YYZ instead of YYC and didn't notice till a couple of days before the flight ... it ended well -- catgirl

Saturday morning hiking

I am planning to lead a hike before the 'official' 'do'. So far 3 of us are going, but I'm happy to show off our beautiful trails to as many as possible! We will go at the pace of the slowest person (possibly me!).

We will be hiking from Alyard farm, meeting there at 11am. If you need a ride, PM painintheuk. It will be a slow, relaxed pace, with snacks along the way!

We'll be done and back in plenty of time to check in and relax before the Do.

Please add your name below:
PainintheUK
catgirl (well ... maybe)
eigenvector

AND A BIG BIG THANKS TO LIGHTS_A_BLUR AND THE OTHERS WHO MADE THIS HAPPEN!!!

Nice party favours. Thanks a lot to Lights-a-blur for mailing them out -- now that I have your home address, I can start creeping around there at night -- and to Dorian for getting the job done -- this might be the closest I ever come to meeting Dorian. Assuming he exists, of course.

And thanks yet again to the others who made that special evening happen.

Mine arrived today in SFO.

Thanks a lot

I also learned magnets don't stick to my fridge

Is there a reason no one's uploaded a photo yet?

p.s. I loved the Trek stamps
p.p.s. I'm sorry if you had to use two stamps for me.

I'm glad the mail system is working! I have to admit, my hand was cramping from hand writing envelopes.

Dorian said "I assumed there would be pictures posted", so go ahead and post pics!

ps. I was stoked when I found the Star Trek stamps, I bought a whole roll!

I'm also on the road, and was advised that my goodie package arrived a couple days ago. Thank you Dorian for making these up. Your presence was missed in a Victoria. And of course, to Lights_a_blur for ensuring these made it to us.
