Will be there with bells on. With a yearnin' burnin' need to do some belly churnin'.

I'll pick up the special soaked root and the tea. :-)

No Omori, no meal ticket though.

Bring your sweatin' shoes, its gonna be a scorcher.

I may also have some root certs if I can find them.

Ah yes! The Holy Days of Mabon when we join The Bear in fervent prayer and root! I'm game. If we're talking the usual moku, that would be the 13th, right? Are they open during Mabon, or is Chef Chin gone to sweep the graves of his Bear ancestors?

Ah, as you are the youngest male at the table, let me say, I am very glad you asked the question, "Will, during this week of all the weeks of the year, Chin be a slouch and not work?

The answer my friend, is blowing in the wind, so................

Let your fingers do the walking and when you have found the answer , bring it to me and I shall negotiate a fair price with you for its safe return.

Thank you, young warrior, that makes you the youngest male at the table and hence it falls upon you to dial for dollars to inquire if Master Bear Chin will be open that day. If so, report back, and we're ready to roll for Mabo #8.

Thursday 13th is good for me too. I'll bring a broom to sweep the ashes of mabos-past. OP updated.

It's also good to be old.

Ready to roll. By the way, I believe it is Mabo #8, not #6. Unfulfilled Mabos are enshrined by their number anyway, up in Mabo Heaven.

If the 13th doesn't work, might I suggest the 20th or 27th? Or September 17th?
