Bumping into Verdunites

Doesn't it feel good when you're out shopping somewhere and you bump into a Verdunite or 2?  It was nice bumping into Gord & Karen in Brampton yesterday. We should try and have a luncheon get-together again, soon. Brampton, or any where anyone would like!   What'dya say?
 
Have a safe & healty New Year eveyone!

It would be a great idea to have another lunch. Karen and I kind of like Applebee's in Brampton. Is your preference on a Saturday or a Sunday? Hopefully other locals (Willie or Country Girl Pam) will also respond.   Actually, this weekend is open for us.   Let me know.   Gord Gibbons

Hi Gord, what a great idea! I am at the Bike show this weekend. I'd love to join you guys again. If there is nothing set yet, what about the following weekend?

gorderic MSN said...

Carole / Margo /Willie:   How about Sunday January 14th for lunch.   Gord  

willie MSN said...

Sounds good to me Gord. Appleby's is still a good location as well, if everyone can make it. Post away, I have blocked off lunch until I hear back - Either way   Thanks, it was a blast last time and I am sure it will be as good this time around   Willie

Carole:   Can you make it next Sunday? Karen and I went to Angel's this morning for breakfast - eggs and smoked meat.   Gord

Hi there. I had trouble getting on.  Next Sunday sounds good. Applebys on Steeles & Rutherford?  What time are we planning to meet, any time is good for us.   Smoked meat & eggs?  Sounds different but good. I will definately try it sometime. Yum yum.   See you all next week.   Carole

Margo / Willie / Carole:   We seem to have a consensus as follows:   Date:      January 14th. (Sunday) Time:      12:00  Noon Venue:    Applebys Brampton (Rutherford and Steeles, near Costco)   Look forward to seeing you. If anyone else is interested, you are most welcome.   Gord

Margo,   That's the pits!  I don't know what to say except that there are so many treatments out there now, it's unbelievable.  It was on the news today that the U of A research team on finding a cure for cancer has just discovered an inexpensive drug that shrinks tumours!  The experiments have been done on mice but they are optimistic that they can transfer the same results to humans.  They've received numerous calls from patients who want to be tested with this drug.  We live in amazing times and anything is possible!   So, I know you'll be okay, but in the meantime, here's my hug and positive thoughts for a speedy recovery.   Dolly

Hi Margo, My thoughts are with you Judy

edbro68 MSN said...

Sabby, I saw the same thing. They said it is so cheap to make that drug companies probably won't touch it, however, here in Canada Medicare will fund it as they would save money in the long run. I was diagnosed with an inoperable lung tumor in '75 at the M.G.H. and years later they killed it with laser at Verdun. Verdun General could not understand why it had not grown. I told them I had no idea as I simply went home and forgot about it. They said it was the best thing to do as the mind can heal the body but can also destroy it.         Ed

Hi Margo,   Sorry you couldn't make it due to the problems you've been having. Here's wishing you well, and speedy recovery!  We'll all keep each other informed for the next luncheon.   Take care & positive thoughts on both sides.   Carole

Hi Margo,  I'll be thinking of you and wish you every success with your treatments.  We are in AZ at the moment but when I get back in the spring, I would like to meet some former Verdunites for lunch too.  We live north of Bolton so Orangeville, Caledon or Brampton are very easy places for me to get to. Please keep me posted.  I loved the picture you posted of my sister and you gals on Third Avenue,  Thel checked it out and remembered the  outfit very well.  It was very special.  Thanks for the great memory. Bev.

judy MSN said...

Hi Bev Was wondering where you were...get your e-mails, how long are you away for this time....Hope you had a Happy Birthday Judy

gorderic MSN said...

Hi Bev:   I hope you are enjoying it in Arizona - it should drop to minus 17 tonight north of Bolton. What town do you live in?   I think the plan is to have another lunch in April, likely in Erin. It would be great if you join us.   Gord Gibbons Brampton

gorderic MSN said...

Hi Margo:   We are thinking of you and wish you a speedy recovery. Karen and I are both in Brampton. If you need any help or a drive somewhere - just give us a call.   (905) 796 - 1901   Karen and Gord Gibbons Brampton

We have been living in Carefree, AZ for the past 16 winters.  We have just bought a new house and have been very busy getting settled.  At least all the boxes have gone now and we are much further ahead than a month ago.B
