posted January 20, 2020 3:14 PM | |

Sat February 8 at 5:00 PM, Parklife

636 Degraw St, Brooklyn, NY, USA (Map & Directions)

(If earlier or later in the day would work better, let me know! But this is the best February date for me.)

Unfortunately I have a friend's birthday party that evening :(

Would Friday evening on the 7th be better for you, UltraMorgnus, or others?

I can come for a drink on the 8th! Would not be able to make the 7th

(Am extremely in favor of monthly meet up)

I pretty much always prefer a weekend over a weeknight for Brooklyn meetups, late night PATH train trips are a pain.

The Parklife menu looks good. (But I'm happy for an excuse to hit Brooklyn Baklava again on my way there or back -- their Turkish Delight is "betray your family and all of Narnia" good.

Both of those dates are looking good for me, in case you haven't settled on Saturday. Tlacoyos and pie!

Added to my calendar, dramatically increasing the odds I'll show up.

Sounds like I will stick with Saturday this time!

A friend's birthday thing is that same evening. I swear I'm going to get to one of these eventually.

Now likely I can make it! Though not until after 8. I'll keep an eye on this thread to see if folks are still around. If not I'll catch you next... month?

Yep, monthly is the plan! I can update the thread tomorrow to let you know how long people are likely to stick around.

Note: don’t show up early, they won’t be open! (Showing up late is a-ok)

I’m aiming for 5:30-5:45, definitely won’t be earlier than that

We are here!

I suspect I at least will need to leave before 8 cause some stuff came up. Hope to catch you next time, miles per flower!

Understood, and thanks for the heads-up! Till next time, then. (Tho if anyone else is around, I'll look for you--I'm a few stops away now, shd be there by 7:45 or so.)

Eek! I can hang for a little bit, and other people are still here!
