SeaHorse_Fanatic will become famous soon enough
Default BBQ/Reefers Get-Together at SeaHorse_Fanatic's Jan.16th

So, for January, to accommodate Coasting's schedule, I plan to invite our local fishy friends over for a BBQ. I have no problems prepping/bbqing/cooking the food and just have each attendee chip in for the grocery bill (no more than $10/person). I've bbqed for as many as 120 people in one day so that's not a problem. Based on recent attendance numbers, I think a dozen to 15 adults is a reasonable max number and we can accommodate that many inside our place. I will pick up a couple bottles of wine and some soda to go with the meal but otherwise its bring your own beer/cider/coolers.

If the 16th (Saturday) doesn't work, please let me know. I'm perfectly fine with doing it on another date, as long as it doesn't conflict with family stuff.

Families/kids are welcome (ie. my two little girls will be there) and if its during the day, they can go outside into the playhouse to play (I'll set up a space heater in there).

In terms of timing, I'm thinking late lunch and through the afternoon/evening. Again, I'm flexible on this.

Tentative meal plan is Malaysian chicken or turkey satay, stir fried noodles, Malaysian chicken curry and coconut milk rice, bbq pork ribs, bbq lemon-grass or rosemary chicken, hot dogs/burgers if people want...

I also have 2 reef tanks (165g & 93g cube), a goldfish tank, 2 fw shrimp tanks, an endler tank, 2 baby tortoises and a koi "pond" to see and we can play a movie or the hockey game on the tv, if so desired.

I'm located in South Burnaby, halfway between King Eds Pets and Metrotown. Just 5 minutes from Kensington Exit off Hwy 1.

Let me know if there's interest in this.

Anthony

OH gee so this is my fault then LOL
As long as the ferries don't get canceled due to weather between the 14th and then I can be there :P

And as long as I'm not the only girl
I got room for 1 other in my vehicle from Poco if somebody wants to carpool.

Ok, we're getting to be pretty much full, but we can accommodate this many and more if attendance is spread out a bit throughout the day (ie. NOT have 20 people crammed into my livingroom/dining room at one time LOL). Hopefully its a nice day and people dress warmly so they can join me outside on the deck too.

If I've missed anybody or you can confirm, post on this thread and I'll continue to update it.
