Wednesday Night #1047 - David’s 70th birthday


The Invitation (Reminder)
Dear all,
As I contemplate the storm from high in Place Victoria, I am hoping that you will hitch up the sled dogs and join us for a special evening tomorrow, March 27, to celebrate David’s 70th birthday ( which he just may have told some of you!). No matter what the weather, […]

A thousand Wednesday nights
By Martin C. Barry
David and Diana Nicholson were exhausted, exhilarated, although he admitted that “We are very weary,”. Three days after a big bash marking the 1,000th Wednesday Night Salon, over an almost 20-year period, the Rosemount Avenue residents were still recovering.

Wednesday Night #700 Prologue by Sam Totah


The anniversary date is always a good opportunity to look back and view the events from a different point of view i.e. in hindsight. When David and Diana started these unique soirées –long, long long time, almost 14 years, ago — their first special guest was Dr. Carl Beigie –the US-made […]

Wednesday Night #600


True to Wednesday Night form, the 600th anniversary organized by committee on Wednesday September 1,1993, bore no resemblance to a camel.
