Hey Brett maybe we should add some retro pix and really make a statement.
Here is one of me about 1978/79ish (just after I got my hair cut) -- do I look like I was one to turn down a reefer party? The reefs I'm into have changed but I still enjoy a party.:wink:

Did you notice the "stubby" beer bottles (pretty sure they were O'keefe's Extra Old Stock) - ah those were the days.
Now I'll go to a party and sip club soda.:wink:

Thanks you are very kind although I look nothing like that now.


Ok I'll quit hi-jacking this thread.

Doug - Yes I am planning to be there.

And I thought RSVP was just what we are to do when we get invited to witness a new marriage ------ Remember Send Vedding Present!

cale262 04-17-2011 12:13 AM

Wow, I thought that was Geddy Lee for a minute :wink:

NanoN00b 04-17-2011 06:14 AM

I'd like to meet some other people in Calgary that are into reef tanks.

I know I'm not a regular, but would I be able to join?

(Sorry for the late notice - but I just saw it on the forum)

Of course, this is not an exclusive club. Just shoot Fishytime a PM and he will get you the info.

365seasons 04-19-2011 05:59 PM

Will catch you guys at the next reef meet Dougy!!

Still getting used to the whole double mom/new mom again thing!!

Have a great time! =)

Lance 04-20-2011 10:27 PM

Look out Calgary. Here I come! Flying out tomorrow morning.
I hope the turn out is good. :biggrin:

fishytime 04-20-2011 11:46 PM

Coral master is better than Rush. :twised:

DiverDude 04-21-2011 12:55 AM

No disrespect to Mr. Snappy but NOBODY is better than RUSH !!

:rockon:

mseepman 04-21-2011 03:02 AM

Assuming that nothing comes up...I will be there. So should i be looking for the fishy shirts or just the biggest group in the house?

I don't know, but don't ask for the "reefers group" or they'll take you to the back room with the peculiar odor.

DiverDude 04-21-2011 04:45 AM

Most likely we'll be the bunch sitting in front of the reef tank :mrgreen:

DeneBanger 04-21-2011 06:18 AM

If someone would like to shoot me a PM, I would be happy to donate a signed copy of my new book, "Breeding Berghia Nudibranches the best kept secret" as a door prize.

Delphinus 04-21-2011 04:29 PM

I'm still planning to attend but there's a chance I won't be able to get there right at the scheduled/planned start time. It's likely this will last a couple hours, though, no?

lastlight 04-21-2011 04:41 PM

I'm a quick drunk but I'll try my best Tony.

It's not widely known that Greg was actually in Rush for a brief period before they adopted a dress-code.

xtreme 04-21-2011 06:41 PM

Parkinson and I are going to attend if its not to late to add us Doug.

fishytime 04-21-2011 09:09 PM

Wow! Most of the big dogs are coming out..... This should be a great turn-out

Snappy 04-21-2011 09:17 PM

I was trying to keep that a secret Brett. Hopefully the reef meet doesn't have a dress code!:wink:

fishoholic 04-22-2011 11:02 PM

Ended up going to the meet and it was a blast! 21 people in total and we sat by a nice big reef tank. All in all it was awesome and I had a great time talking with everyone and meeting some new faces :thumb:

I took some pic.'s on my i-phone if I can figure out how to upload them I will post them later :biggrin:

es355lucille 04-22-2011 11:05 PM

Very nice meeting a lot of people at the Canreef meet today! We have to have other meetings so that I can meet more!! Had a great time! Thanks to Laurie and Doug for organizing this event, Sharon and I had a great time.

Brad

mseepman 04-23-2011 12:34 AM

Had a great time today at the meet! So good to meet the people behind the Canreef nicknames.

Thanks for pulling this together Doug.

lastlight 04-23-2011 01:26 AM

Yeah had a great time let's def do that again.

Snappy 04-23-2011 03:02 AM

I believe an enjoyable time was had by all. A big thank you to Doug for organizing the event. :mrgreen:

DiverDude 04-23-2011 03:18 AM

It was great to put the face to the names. Learnt a bunch of stuff too !

We should do this on some kind of regular basis.

abcha0s 04-23-2011 03:34 AM

Thanks for the good time. Sorry I didn't get the chance to chat with everyone, but it was nice saying hi to those I did.

I'm planning a BBQ and tank tour sometime in August. It's still a ways away, but it will be an open invitation.

- Brad

xblade 04-23-2011 05:57 AM

Very good time...Great people..We have to keep this going.
I say nametags next time. :lol:

NanoN00b 04-23-2011 06:50 AM

Thanks Doug for setting this up!

I had a great time. Everyone inspired me to finish plumbing my utility sink and RO unit in my new place. Now I don't have to truck water home...

es355lucille 04-23-2011 01:26 PM

Thanks for the Tee shirts Brett!!!
