Cock & Lion Ale House

Posted in: Technical Track

Doug Burns has spent 4 weeks in our Ottawa office and now he is back home to Madeline and boys. Yesterday, before he left, we had the lunch at Cock & Lion Ale House:

Food wasn’t the best for me (I got fish and chips) – but very nice and cozy place and they did have Guinness as well as plenty of other beers so I can’t complain:

To put the names on the faces – left to right – Christo, Karun, Raj, Paul, Martin, Mark, Igor, Julien, Marc, Virgil, Doug, and Singer.

While Doug was here we’d got a team split and he ended up in the new team (8) with me and Karun. Needless to say that’s a real pleasure for me to work with these guys. I hope they won’t be complaining too much about me. :-)
Let’s see if Doug could get some work done from home. ;-) I wouldn’t.

Damn, I never did get round to the ‘Team 8’ blog. Suffice to say, I got lucky ;-)

I’m looking forward to it, actually. I think the lack of children in the house is probably a critical success factor, though, although I’m a bit worried that The Boys may pester me while I’m working. I’ll have to move to another room
