GVRD Jan/Feb social meet city preferences

As the old saying goes, you will never be able to please all the people, all the time. Town hall is a nice central location, close to hwy 1. If people can make it great, if they can't, such is life. Don't make it any more difficult than it needs to be.

Have you met Greg?? (C'mon, that was free -lol)

I hear you dave.

I work in west van and live in Langley. People talk about crossing a bridge or two like you are venturing into the core of the earth.

It isn't far people! Especially not once a month/or two.

I used to live in Ambleside and drove to Whiterock every day. You guys have gotten soft over there

I've had people that ask me to knock $6 off the price of an item I'm selling as they have to cross a bridge twice.

There are non toll ways to get everywhere

You have a multi thousand dollar fish tank, are willing to drive across town to save $20 on a bucket of salt, but won't cross a toll bridge? Mind blown.

It is what it is folks, " get over it " not a biggy at all I've crossed the river for almost every meet up because I enjoy it and will continue to do so where ever it is.

Use the free bridges if it's such a concern.

I have no issues with the bridge for the sake of the toll... I personally just loathe driving through surrey and especially along 152nd and in around king George and well everywhere in surrey.... And Richmond.... and Delta....
Langley isn't so bad, I go out to Langley all the time, I still hate the main around around 10 and 200th but Langley is far less annoying then surrey.

I live on the island now and not even where those crazy Victoria folk live.... Theres no traffic where I live, I don't hit a single traffic light on my 20min drive to work. A traffic jam involves stopping for a deer that's trying to jump in front of you.
Going through some of those cities in van now is unbearable, my mother revokes my driving rights when I drive with her because the pedestrians and other vehicles don't like my yelling.

And I want to know where this multi thousand dollar fish tank is coming from... shesh! Not everyone sinks that much into their tank
