My bad for not posting this yesterday - I've been catching up with my emails and this article should have been posted yesterday...

The UpBear (website - articles - profile) bunch in Montreal who usually only get together once a month for Brunch are now working another meeting - this time it's for 'Spaghetti Supper' at the Woof Bar & Bistro (website - profile) which is located on 1661 Sainte-Catherine in the heart of the Gay village in Montreal (and some of you might remember that the Woof bar held the 1st Bear contest awhile back - check out all the articles surrounding that event here and check out the video I made here on YouTube).

Ok so the reason why I should have posted this yesterday is that they got together for their 1st supper last night, however their next one will be on Wednesday, November 5th. And as for the UpBear brunch, they will be getting together on Sunday, October 26th at the Restaurant Palais Montcalm which is at 1314 Ontario Street.

On August 30th, Paul Blouin, owner of the Woof Bar & Bistro (website - articles - profile) held the 'Monsieur Bear Montréal' contest (articles - photos). This was the very 1st Bear contest that this great French Canadian city had ever seen. I (Forrest - profile) was there and I filmed the event as well as livestreamed it - both here on PlanetBears as well as on TubeBear. The livestreaming had a bunch of kinks of it (disconnection, sound issues) so I was glad that I filmed it.

I also kind of convinced my partner and hubby, Roger (galleries - profile) to be a contestant. He was reluctant at first, thought it over, then agreed to do it. He was nervous and anxious the whole week prior to the contest, yet once he got up there, he was a natural.

The video is just under 10 minutes long. Originally it was 16 yet I decided to edit it down, and this way I was able to place it here as well, on my YouTube page - BearGhetti. Hope you enjoy it.
