I will be at my Oakville home during GLASS Andrew, fear not!

I will pick anyone that is arriving by air PERSONALLY from the Airport and whisk them back to my place for cold pints, on the house.

That is an open invitation!

it's not soo much that they allow it...but after you pay for the room, you can pretty much do what you want...who's to say that you can't have a few friends over? :wink: and unless you get out of hand they have no reason to come to your room( other than room service and the maid)

I'd be willing to pay for a GLASS shirt Tom! It would go well with my footbag ontario shirt *ahem*, Jon. ;)

I shred for a good 3 hours today so far and its only 1. I'm going to session again later on. I've got some cool things I want to show everyone!

How does this sound people:

http://www.affordacom.com/

If we get dorm rooms that sleep 6 it is $22 (that is with tax in canadian dollars) per person to stay the night. I think that is TOTALLY reasonable and we would all have a legit bed.

It is like.. two blocks from U of T aswell so we are hooked up.

Sound good everyone?

Here is another review of the place:

http://www.hostels.com/en/availability. ... umber.1834

Facilities include:
* Free Internet Access.
* Free Linen
* Free indoor parking
* Lounge with TV and games
* Sushi bar on site.
* Pop and snack machine.
* No curfew
* Fully equipped kitchen
* Lockers
* Cable TV, Phones and
balcony in all rooms



Right now I am working on finding us some tennis courts to shred in. That seemed pretty ideal.

there are cheaper hostels in toronto, but i don't know if there are any closer to the UT. my guess on the games room is there's either a pool table, foosball table or both.

Andrew, I don't know the headcount. 30-ish maybe?

Yes I will be staying at the hostel.

That hostel looked pretty cool because of it's location. Kensington market is really cool.

I think it would be bad ass for us to play in some random open area, I am sure we could find something and make a scene.

The $22 rate is for 6 person dorm rooms. I bet it will be real cozy!

Good work team.

So everyone is down with that hostel?
