One month to go ,where is everybody?
« on: May 15, 2014, 12:04:01 am »
I am not the most prolific poster. but where is all the activity that normally precedes the great event, looking at previous years this year is just above dead, as  some of us will be leaving in less than 4 weeks time. It's normally manic by now.

Hello Ian,
             Well my flight is booked and my travel arrangements with Tom are in place.
Other than that busier than a one armed paper hanger trying to get as much fun packed in to a short Canadian summer.
motorcycle is in pieces on the garage floor and i am due to ride it to West Virginia in a week.... No pressure.
Looking forward to seeing you and the rest of the Liverpool Boys.
Phil

Still here Ian and checking in every day!
I've noticed that we are short of a couple of traditional annual threads:
"This years chariot" and "What's on your stereo"?

I tested negative for patience.

On my way to the MOT station, to see if the Beast passes her test!

So that depends on what I will be on :-\

If you're going through hell, keep going.

My chariots this year, with Ade JW, will be combinations of East Coast Trains, Eurostar and SNCF. We're letting the trains take strain this year with advance parties taking all my gear. Last time I looked trains had bars!!!

I'm still here.
A lot of the 'youngsters' now use FB to communicate, it's quiet good apparently  ;).
Music for the trip down still to be decided, but I'm sure Dr Feelgood and The Doors will feature somewhere along the route.
I'll start a what where how thread for traditionalists still here.

Hope you are well behaved, not.
SNCF are still recovering from Trayboy and Major Chop using that route a few years ago.

Feeling the Feelgood, Barry and I may drop in some of The Jim Jones Revue, best of Van Halen and QOTSA as they are all in my "recent purchases" play list.

Dambusters, 633 Squadron and The Italian Job all at hand for use and abuse

me = no, to busy with work and customer want everything yesterday - not told them I'm off at beginning of June for 17 days  ::)

so garage = hopefully yes, simple jobs, but big Beast to lift (4.5 ton) and one is the brakes - so will know more next week
