Thirsty People of Toronto

Last night’s Thirsty People of Toronto gathering took place at Toronto’s grubby-but-oh-so-fun Sneaky Dee’s. A night of drinking, conversation, nachos and Scrabble are precisely what the doctor ordered.

I’d like to send a special shout-out to Bridget — she heard my plea for help in an earlier entry and PayPalled me some money to buy beer — you’re the best!

Could we perhaps get a pitcher of eeeevil beer? Nikki, Peter and Charles strike the TPT cliched pose of the week.

Daaaaaamn. Trysh is back from Mexico!

Ah, sweet liquor…eases the pain. One of the TPTers bought all our tables a round of butterscotch ripple shots.

“Mr. deVilla, your Scrabble tiles await you…” Nikki summons me to the Scrabble table while Kate and Lex look on.

My Scrabble letters. The Gods of Randomness are having a little fun with me, I think.

We’re an erudite bunch, aren’t we? “Quays” was mine.

“‘Strewth” is a word, I tell you!” Kate’s arrived from Australia about a month ago, and I could swear that half the “Austalian” words she uses are just made up.

Check this out, ladies! Charles is always looking for ways to tastefully show off his tongue dexterity.

Trysh shows her civilised side. No Greco-Roman wrestling this week, and not even a drop of alcohol! Once she recovers from last week’s vacation in Mexico, I’m sure we’ll have our hard-drinkin’, hard-playin’ Trysh back.
