We could have used some of your barbecue, Tim!

That said, I liked my Irish lunch.

I wouldn't change it for the world, Bill!

Shows me having fun with my buddies.

Besides I was doing a great Dalip impression. Really.

Here is the fine establishment where Dr. Robert (Bob). Art 161 (Art), Sakuraba (Jib) and Speed (Bill) met up to GTG.




Like many San Francisco establishments, this place was tucked away....down a little alley in the heart of Downtown...




First things First (after greetings and salutations of course)




The Wrist Shots...




Our waitress said the Pepsi's & Explorer I were her favorite watches...




My Vintage Oyster Perpetual side by side with Dr. Robert's DJ...





The Table Shot.

Loved the comment by the Waitress (said in her rich Irish brogue) " Now would not be the time fer a robbery, aie? "





The TRFers:

Dr. Robert (Bob):





Art161 (Art)




Sakuraba (Jib) and Speed (Bill)





Group Shot





After the GTG, we hit a couple ADs. Did not get a shot at Shreve, but we actually stopped by this place as well - and were asked very politely if we needed help. Quite nice!




Jib and Bob - wishing this place would open soon! It's fall, 2010... right?

Hey Dr. Robert, have to ever been told that you resemble the actor LLoyd Nolan? I think you're a dead ringer for him in your first picture!

Did get the invite from Bob, but had prior obligations. Perhaps next time I'll be able to make it out.

Welcome back to the Bay, Bob.
