AND THE JEWELS...Van Cleef & Arpels

Yes that's our friend Russell Jones (proud new papa) of Birks, with MOI demonstrating HOW TO WEAR the finest money can buy!!!! I prefer it as a gift myself...but there you go!!!

THANX RUSSELL FOR A GREAT NIGHT OUT!!!
And THANX TO MAC PARRY FOR ANOTHER FAB SHOT...Mr. Trend-setter you!!!

BACK TO BACK B's...Last night!!!

BIRKS and BOSS (as in HUGO!!!) that is!!!

And the FASHION doesn't get any better!!! Starting at Birks with the Van Cleef & Arpels "joint" venture. The champagne and canapies and the JEWELS...yes - I didn't ask how much !!!!

And you see what happens when you have a professional snap the pic!!!! MUCH BETTER!!!

First FAB shot - by non other than Image Master - David Smith
www.imagebyinterface.com

He set the tone - and even I HAVE TO GIVE HIM CRED's!!! THANX DAVID!!!

AND THE BEAT GOES ON!!!

IT's GAME DAY!!! Thanx Marcel for the ROYAL INVITE!!! AND WHAT A GAME!!! LIONS BEAT THE ___P out of the STAMPS by a HUGE margin!!!

Okay, I'm not one to pass 'blame' but the pic attached is NOT mine. I felt it needed to be 'shared', although hard to tell - but we were fortunate to be in the presence of MR. LUI PASSAGLIA.

AT THE VERY LEAST - YOU CAN TELL EVERYONE WAS HAVING A GREAT TIME...NOTE TO EVERYONE - don't use a phone - when you want a pic!!!

A collection was taken within our group - and a donation was made to charity so that those with less - can still enjoy Thanksgiving!!!

10 DAYS LATER....

Well, I do believe I mentioned earlier, that I NEED MORE HELP...someone to do my reporting for me!!!

So LOT"S of parties / events / gatherings and FAB meetings with new and old friends.

First up after a barrage of parties, was our meeting with Ron Crocker and Debbie Currie - the wiz's behind our web-site - yes I KNOW - IT'S NOT ABOUT ME!!! You can link to them through us, and see what they can do for you.

THEN it was meetings with producer/director John Durrant to discuss an upcoming project we're planning on producing!!! YES VIRGINIA, I've "gone to the "other" side"...

Lunch with our FABULOUS accountants - AL BOTTESELLE - of "wait for it", GALLOWAY, BOTTESELLE...who's trying to keep my "sorry butt" out of a sling (AGAIN)!!!

Later catching up with Marcel Zastre, of GML fame, to pick up tickets for the FRIDAY NIGHT EVENT - GO LION'S GO!!!

Next day - walking onto the Bowen Island Ferry - to be met on the other side by Kaz and Johnathan Brownlee, to check out their FAB NEW GALLEY BISTRO for Dinner. Later this month, they will have completed construction on a brand new Cinema directly above the BISTRO for bringing in current movies for the locals and visitors to enjoy!!!



From what I could tell - BOWEN ISLAND IS HOPPING!!! Stay tuned for further details on upcoming events, new menu items and NEW CLIENTS!!! JUST IN TIME FOR FALL!!!
