isherri Posted March 4, 2015 Report Posted March 4, 2015 Hello friends! Last time we had a happy hour at Fiona's it turned out to be one of the coldest days of the year. The few brave souls who made it STILL had great fun. Hope more of you can join me this time! When: March 10th, 2015 at 6:30pm Fiona's Irish Pub 5810 Kingstown Center Alexandria, VA http://fionasirishpub.com Cheers!

GreenCactus Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 I'm still a maybe, but it's more likely than not at this point.
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 10, 2015 Report Posted March 10, 2015 Looks like a lot of our Maybe's are going to be a yes!!! Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 10, 2015 Report Posted March 10, 2015 Just saw on the news 95 south is closed in Springfield, trick is laying on its side.It's pretty bad and expected to be shut down for hours. Avoid 395 if coming from that area Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

Avoid 395 if coming from that area I didn't see anything near Springfield. I-95 is closed between the ICC and 198, but that's not anywhere near happy hour...
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 10, 2015 Report Posted March 10, 2015 I didn't see anything near Springfield. I-95 is closed between the ICC and 198, but that's not anywhere near happy hour... Thanks I was in the waiting room at the doctor and it was hard to hear, could have sworn they said Springfield. But with closed caption delay, news headlines rolling by and the volume low it was really hard to get Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

It's in Laurel MD, between DC and Baltimore (but much closer to DC). It's primarily impacting Southbound (people approaching DC from Columbia or Baltmore).

RDG_RCR Posted March 10, 2015 Report Posted March 10, 2015 I'm going to get stuck in the overflow traffic.

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 10, 2015 Report Posted March 10, 2015 is there a particular spot in the bar we are meeting:questionmark: It's not a huge bar, Sherri likes the spot by the fireplace so if I can get us a big enough table we'll sit there. We might be able to commandeer a few tables to put together. It won't be hard to find us Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
Edge Posted March 10, 2015 Report Posted March 10, 2015 I will be a little late... I got the thumbs up to drop my MINI off for service this evening (I've been trying to get it in there with a loaner car since yesterday morning, but they were out of loaners), but it has to be before 8pm. Seems to make more sense to do it first then have to rush out of HH prematurely. See you guys as soon as I get the loaner and head down there!

GreenCactus Posted March 11, 2015 Report Posted March 11, 2015 It was fun hanging out with everyone. The big crowd was a nice surprise! My drive home was interesting... dense fog, so I got to use all of my fog lights. Then, there was a tree down blocking one of the roads I take, so I had to detour. The detour is one I take in the nicer weather, but at night, when it's really foggy, it was quite creepy. I felt like I was in horror movie! I made it home safe, though! :top:
Edge Posted March 11, 2015 Report Posted March 11, 2015 I had a great time too! I am especially thankful that most people were still there when I arrived so late after dropping my MINI off at PMoA. I promise to be much earlier next time! "Mr. OEM" - 05 JCW (TK, GPIC, SS, GPTA, R56 RSB, StBr, R56 BBK, GPWhls, SV, RS, R56 GSI, IES, StrWhl, GK, HG, LBIT) MCS, HB/HB, Packs: 1, 2, 3 & 4.
