| Oh my goodness...you are all totally hilarious! lol
I can tell right now that you are all going to love reading Sherraine book with the honour I'm reading in this thread!
If you wish to refresh your memory a bit and get your taste buds going again for some of Sherraine's writing, feel free to check out Diary of a Fencer.
Enjoy,
Geordie www.sherrainemackay.com |

| Hey Geordie, I imagine Sherraine's schedule will be pretty busy whiel in Van, but is there any chance she is planning to bring her fencing equipment along and kick some local a$$?  There are a few promising girls at our club Dynamo - who idolize her and could really benefit from fencing her. Probably wishful thinking, but I thought I'd ask anyway.
Thanks,
Dmitry |

Dmitry | Hey hey... you pushy Ukrainian... she doesn't need her own gear at Vanguard... she also can catch up on the gossip with the women fencers there that she knows...
Ah... don't worry Lemberg.... I know your coach won't mind people from your club visiting ours  (shhhh I won't tell if you don't)

| I'm sure Victor would have no problems with it. His students' development is always a #1 priority and he is smart enough to put his personal issues aside. |

Thanks,
Dmitry | Hey Dmitry, I wish that were possible but the schedule is actually quite deadly. She flies into Vancouver on October 18 arriving in the evening has a full media day on the 19th and then that night flies to Edmonton and the on to Calgary.
Plus, she won't have hear fencing gear with her. I know that if she was there a few more days she would have done it but unfortunately this is very much a hectic (yet exciting) business trip.
Hopefully they will be setting the media day up for the public and everyone can come say hello!
Cheers,
Geordie |

I was being playful. If time permitted it would have been great to have Sherraine fence at your club. I thought you had a wonderful idea and little miffed that you thought of it first.

Cheers,
Geordie | If they are setting the media day up for the public, will you post the time and place?  Hopefully it will be for the public so I can stop by and maybe ask for her to sign the book!  If it's for the public, I hope that it is after my classes!
