Celebrating St. Patrick's Day early

Gord and I walked to the Banknote and had a late supper (the wings were so-so, a tab overcooked, but the ribs were good).

We walked up to Queen Street to check out the status of the fire from a couple weeks ago. The buildings have been torn down and it's fenced off.

We walked to what used to be Paddy Murphy's (I'm not sure if it's still called that as there was no sign outside). The bouncer (at 6 foot, 11 inches, he is the tallest man I've ever met) said the music was techno-something-or-other and we probably wouldn't like it. So I had my picture taken with him (some chick wanted to be in the pic too) and we moved on.

We walked to the Foggy Dew, which was packed. There was live music and we stayed for a beer.

On our way home, we stopped at the Bungalow Cafe for a couple drinks. Here's Gord with Rob, the owner.
