    Surveying interest for a fall CANBIF

    The SevenDuffs and I are looking into potentially organising a fall version of the CANBIF. We will use this thread to survey interest from Canadian BA’s.

    So just drop a line in this thread if you are interested in participating and please also mention your location to ensure we know what kind of geographical distribution we are dealing with.

    Hitting -5C tonight in Winnipeg, might be too cold for this?

    Too Cold for this Calgary trader, Spring perhaps?

    Ding, ding! We *may* get one more good solid week of warmth, but we have snow on the ground by Hallowe'en at least 50% of the time. We'd need this done it record time sadly...

    I'm in, but I suspect with the dearth of Praeie traders at this time of year, spring might be a better option...

    I'm in, but agree with everyone else. Spring is probably best.

    I'd be more inclined for spring based on inclusion of the praries, as well. Plus, I was in Calgary for the last one, now I'm in Ontario....it takes a little longer to accrue interesting bottles out here.

    Spring is better for me out here in BC as well. Weather's fine, but my wife's been pretty damn cold becuase I've been "trading too much" lately. :rolling_eyes:

    Based on the answer we got so far I think I will hold on until spring for the next CANBIF. Make sure to keep a stash of your favorite locals starting next spring!
