*hip-check bump*
this Sunday folks! Any other RSVP or Regrets? I need to call the restaurant with final head count.  Can't wait to see you all!

Hi Phyl!!!!
Please add one more to the count. My friend Christine (a wait and watch ANer) will be joining us. I hope I caught you in time before you called Maxwells with the head count.
Thanks,
Jane

How many people do we need before we can ask for one of those private rooms off on the side?  Might reduce the ambient noise for those of us with impaired hearing...

Hi Katie, I'm not sure but I'll ask. I don't remember seeing private rooms upstairs but will check on it.  I do know they have "our" table ready for us and are looking forward to our harrassment...er... patronage again :)  Let me find out.

If anyone needs a ride from the Northshore/Metro West, let me know. I got room in my car for 2 more.



UPDATED:


Brunch is April 29 at Maxwell's in Worcester at 11am.  $20 (give or take) included FULL brunch buffet with meat carving board and... our favorite omelet table guru (Gil) who is delicious to harrass, has been pre-warned of our reservation ... price also includes a complimentary bloody mary or mimosa.

IIRC, there were two rooms on the right as you approach the desk from the elevator.  I just wasn't sure how many more people that round table in the corner could handle!  Cuz we're certainly a lot to handle!   ;D

Hello,
I am recently diagnosed.  This is my first time in the discussion forum.  I hope I am doing this right.  I am wondering if it is too late to make a reservation for me and my wife for Maxwell's?  I live in Binghamton, NY, about 4.5 hours from Worcester.

Hi Richard and welcome. You were recently diagnosed? What size AN did the dr's tell you that you have?  I'm not exactly sure where Binghamton is..... far from NYC? We have folks attending from W. MA and CT, if that is of help.

Looking forward to learning more about you.... and again, welcome.
Phyl

4 hours? ouch ... maybe we could share some of the ride? I'm in CT in Shelton (thats near Bridgeport) ... and normally go up I84 to the Mass Pike ..

I checked google maps .. your best bet is to hit 84 ! we could meet in Danbury (about your halfway point) and I could take us from there ..

your right.. its at least 4.5 hours... and thats going at a good pace

Update:

Private room is secured. We are in the "Board room", to the right, immediately off the elevator.  14 person headcount confirmed as of now... if anyone has an RSVP or Regret, please confirm.

Thanks! Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Joef,

Thank you for the kind offer to car pool but I think we are going to make it a weekend of exploring in New England.

Wow! Another delicious brunch with a terrific group of people!! Thanks to our amazing social director Phyl for orchestrating this once again (amidst moving to a new home and all) It was a pleasure meeting newcomers Lucy and d*** and welcome to my old friend Christine and seeing Phyl, Joel, Ellen, Mary, Paul, Katie and Sue, all made for an awesome table.( I think Maxwells lost money on us, we all did great damage at the buffet!)
Again thanks Phyl, I so appreciate your taking the time to do this-
