Third time's a charm? After a work event at the Albion I stopped by at about 7:00pm as the OPEN sign was a flashin. It's a small place, unfinished floors, lots more cardboard signs up on the wall. Couple standing coolers & small 'bar' to sit at. 7 - 8 people in there plus the owner. Seemed like a nice guy, not sure he has a sustainable business model. He lives in the Big Smoke and gets to the lounge by greyhound bus. Last week he arrived at 4:30 to open. One customer said 'yeah, don't try to come at 12:00, ever.' We chatted about my desire to use the lounge over lunch, just doesn't seem that he'll be very consistent with his hours. He rolled one up and passed it around before I had paid my $5 daily membership fee, and was selling lemon drop shatter hits for $5 a pop to patrons. I saw two dudes take him up on his offer with his oil rig. No mention of any paperwork or medical status, although conversation eventually got there. Wish him luck, he said the Lemon Diesel I had was the best he had seen in Guelph. Imagine that.........
