Impromptu get-together with CustomAV (Chris)

Hey all,

Chris (CustomAV) and Melanie are in town! But only briefly. Those of you who attended the 2005 MINIs on the Dragon will remember them - great people... Chris was my "Custom Edge" creeper race teammate. I spoke with Chris on Wednesday night, they are definitely up for a low-key get-together on Thursday night (yes that's TONIGHT) with any DCMMers who are able to make it.

Place and time yet to be finalized (watch this space), but probably something like 7pm downtown in DC, near where they are staying (which is a hotel near the Treasury building, I forget the name). They are leaving on Friday so unfortunately it's Thursday or not at all. One place he suggested is "Old Ebbitt Grill", at 675 15th St, NW. I'll clarify during the workday on Thursday.

If you are interested and available, come out! PM me if you want my cell # for last minute directions, but otherwise I'll post here as soon as I get it clarified with Chris.

Keep us posted! I'll be able to show up, depending what time I'm released (and by released, I mean sneak out when no-one is looking!) from work.

Just talked to Chris - they are going to be at Old Ebbitt Grill at around 5pm for drinks... I'll be getting down there at 7 or 7:30, and we might all go somewhere else for dinner.

Please join us if you can!

get together

The food is pretty good at the Old Ebbitt - it's part of the Clyde's chain - a Washington perennial favorite

I send my regrets for not being able to attend

DARN!! That's a block from my office! I had to leave though to take the cat to the vet... AWWW

BTW, take a look at my Gallery, I just added some pics of a classic Mini. It's SOO tempting to buy it!

Sorry I missed the earlier posts ( I have been working like crazy and not checking NAM) I tried to ring the Old Ebbit but they said that it's their rule not to page someone and I did not have Edge's phone #... . Hope you guys had a great time..

Aww, should have given me a call! We ended up going to the M & S Grill though. Good food, and great company!

I know I talked to you a few times but I don't keep phone number unless are stored on my cell and believe or not I don't have anyone of DCMM members on my cell. But I stored your last night... Hope got the right one !!

Glad to hear you guys had good time . We will see them at the Dragon (I hope) .
