Saturday or Sunday Munchfly

[zorba]

Hi Guys, well as you most know I am OFF this weekend. yes

So, I have decided to do something for the guys

If the BBQ still there I will put on a cookout.

Thats right...you read right.
I will bring all the fixings for the cookout for about 20 heads give or take two or three (LOL)

The only thing I might be short would be something to drink. I don't have a big enough cooler so I will do what I can.

The food would be International (Greek) hehe.
No hot dogs or burgers too much cholesterol.

Chicken souvlaki, Greek salad and pita bread..

So, I'll be there Saturday and if the weather holds then I will cook if not it will be Sunday.

I figure I'll start around 1 pm.

I will also bring 25lb propane tank for the Q

Be there for the munchies.

I wont be doing any flying that day.

Let me know how many will attend please.

Cheers

[Burning Head]

Thanks Bill, or should I say chef Bill:)

[turkana]

Man this is so typical. Bill comes out all set, and I cannot come along. My wifes birthday on Saturday and she returns on friday from beeing away for 4 weeks, so I guess I cannot pull this one of. Anyway thanks Bill, really great! Regards Pete

[zorba]

That's too bad Pete. If I get her a B-day cake will she come out?
What more can you ask for. A b-day party out in the country....

Peter if the weather don't hold we can have it on Sunday..

[Andrew Fernie]

Great initiative Bill, thank you for putting this in place. Wish I could attend, but will be away on vacation.

Andrew

[zorba]

Thanks Andrew.
This is why I asked how many will attend so I will be able to know what to bring. I don't want anything to go bad.
Even if you are not going to fly come out anyway.
What ta heck, who passes up a good meal these days anyway....


Cheers

[turkana]

Thanks for the offer Bill , but I guess she will be completly jetlaged( 8 Hours) with a 8 month old baby, I don t think so. But if you should need a testpilot hmmmm maybe lets see, its a job afterall..... lol :D jokeing. Take care and thank you very much!

Regards Pete

I hope to be able to go after work around 2pm if too late well I will visit the boys at WIAMC :D

[Tarek Hassoune]

[zorba]

The scale funfly is Saturday and Sunday. Depending on the weather I will be going one of those days.
Cooking starts at around 1 pm. for the rest of the afternoon. Don't worry Paul I'll save some for you.
at WIAMC you need some sleep Paul,

bill

[PaulG-rc]

Had a good sleep there last night Bill thanks :D

All dress no onions please :D
Going to be a hard decision to make now.
Get late at Mars club or earlier at WIMAC :rolleyes:

Sundays weather looks not too good so far.

[Denis Cloutier]

Wish I could be there :mad:, I will be on my way to IRCHA 2009 Jambore in Indiana :D.

[PaulG-rc]

Are you still going to MARS Scale Fun Fly in the morning before IRCHA?

Peter Whales will be looking for you at IRCHA with his Allouette III turbine :D

[Denis Cloutier]

not shure yet, it will depend on temperature

[zorba]

Hi guys, It looks like most of the members are going on Holidays or are on holidays and not too many will attend.

So, instead of wasting all this food and effort. I decided to have it two weeks down the road when everybody gets back.

I only got the propane tank and I didn't buy any food yet so no money wasted.
I was looking forward to it but it looks like the weather is another factor.

Enjoy wherever you going and see you when you get back.

regards
Bill

[PaulG-rc]

What :eek: no food!!!

Ok Bill I guess you will go to the Mars FunFly
made a deal with my work co-worker and got the day off :D so I will be there nice and early :D

[zorba]

Yea sorry about that.
I guess I didn't think that alot of folks will be on holidays.
Is Okay though I hope the 22nd is much better weather and most people are back. I hate to see food go to waste.
I will be at the MARS fun fly.
Vario should be there. I will bring my Eurocopter so we can try her out.
Any volunteers;)
I am too darn scared:eek: to give it a try. I spooled her up at the shop and it scared me. She is swinging 720mm blades times 4.
The rotor diameter is 1.6m (5ft)

That electric motor with the clutch is awesome..
Anyway will see you there. Bring an umbrella of suntan lotion.

Cheers

[PaulG-rc]

Thats cool!
I will bring an umbrella to prevent the rain :D
Have to remember to bring my chair this time :cool:

[turkana]

Hi Bill
I will fly it for you!! Since I know how you setup your mashines and I have alreready flown one of them.But this weekend will be a no go, because wife will be back after 4 weeks and its her birthday on Saturday. Reagrds Pete

[turkana]

Keep the maiden for the funfly! But gheee I will fly it, anytime!

[zorba]

If you can be at the club tomorrow, I will bring it there.
I want to try it before the funfly

[Denis Cloutier]

Well I push my trip to HIRCHA by 1 day so I can go to Mars on Saturday, hope to have good weather:D

[zorba]

Good for you Denis.
Hope to see you there, Are you bringing anything?

[turkana]

Hi
Cannot be at the club today :( Sorry. Reagrds Pete

[Denis Cloutier]

I will bring all my scales I can fit in the car:D

[Ron Willoughby]

Thanks Bill for that great invitation! It's now 5:30 Sat., I just read your Email & I've missed a super day at the field. Thanks agian for considering all of us.

HI Bill; it's Ron, the time traveller reporting backin again. This sounds like such a great day, I've put my time machine in reverse, to allow my son Tom and I to be there about noon.

[zorba]

Well Saturday it don't look too promissing according to the weatherman, but Sunday looks good.

So we play it by ear and is either Saturday or Sunday, but for sure is going on.
Bring your self and family if you wish.
I'll be there anyway.

Cheers
Bill

[David Janashvili]

Hi Bill,
If you need same Please let me know...

David:)

[PaulG-rc]

I hope you have a good turnout Bill, I will see the time I leave the FunFly today and if early enough I will pop by. :)

[beto9]

Everyone who had Bill's treat was just praising the good food. I was not lucky since I arrived late and had my lunch already.
Besides Bill's cooking habilities we must add his knowledge of all the most incredible places to buy that piece of exotic hardware we really need or how to do some painting job that looks like a final challenge.

It is our luck to have him as a member and friend....

Plus the guy is plain fun to be around!

[Mick]

Bill, thank you so much for making such great food, it was much appreciated by all who indulged. A few pictures of the master at work. You are a great chef, thanks,

[PaulG-rc]

Billy your a good man ,to have tortured yourself behind a BBQ in that heat.
Wish I had been there too.

[Denis Cloutier]

Looks like a great cookout, sorry I mist it, but I had prior obligations.:(
I will be there next time.

[Andrew Fernie]

Thanks again Bill, the food was great. That was the first time Philippe had tried souvlaki on pita with tzatziki, and he finished it off - high praise from a 10 year old who is suspicious of any food he hasn't seen before.

Andrew

[Dwight Macdonald]

Awesome food Bill! Thanks a lot!

[David Janashvili]

The food was great, Thanks Bill:)

[JimmyG]

Billy, The food was excellent. Many thanks.

[AlixB]

The best souvlaki in town!
Thank you for your generosity!

[Burning Head]

C'étais tres bon Bill, Thanks:cool:

[zorba]

I want to thank everyone for their praises.
It gave me a great pleasure to do this after trying for weeks to compete with the weather and finally won.

But you know the best thing out of all this is not so much the cooking but watching everybody enjoying it, and comming back for seconds.

There's nothing gives more pleasure to the cook than watching his eaters enjoying a good meal.

Thanks to Ronald for the propane tank as the one I brought would not fit the BBQ valve.

till next time them...


cheers

[Ronald Longtin]

Merci Bill, une belle initiative.
