Off to Jolly Old

Arleen and I are off to London tonight for our annual President's Day holiday trip. I won't be on line much if at all while there, but we will be hooking up with Peter, Rob and possibly Nick for lunch on Monday. Shane decided he had to attend a meeting for work. Will someone please tell him he's got his priorities screwed up again.

We'll be home Tuesday night.
JJ, mind your manners. For the next few days you and Chip can post as many Orange pics as you want to get it out of your systems - just please label the threads to warn me so I can bypass them when I get back.

James, Roger, Earl, keep these animals in line for the next few days.

I'll be here for the rest of the day, but after 5:00 PM ET today,

Don't miss me too much.

Ed, I hope you have a great trip. Take lots of pix of these tossers when you meet them. And BTW, missing Shane is not a big deal. You wouldn't want to be seen in public with such a fashion victim.

Just about the time you get back I'll be off to Newfoundland for my extended ski weekend.

BTW, if you can, pick up a proper A4-size Rolex catalogue at an AD in the UK.

Ed, hope you guys have a wonderful trip! Don't forget to pick up some single malt at the duty free shop on your way out of Heathrow!

As John said - lots of pictures please (even more now that we know Shane won't be there....)

Have a great trip Ed. I will try to be at the arrivals gate if it is at all possible. It will all depend on the timings between your flight arriving and mine departing. It does not look good but I'll give it a try.

Hey guys...you know what they say about what the mice do when the cat's away!!

Hey Ed, have yourself a wonderful time with Arlene in London. You and your tosser status will certainly be missed, and in your absence, I fear, your #2 spot might be taken over quickly by some of these quick-witted tossers.

BTW, James still holds the #1 spot!! He might be hard to displace for a very, very long time!!

Please say a BIG Hi to the rest of the guys when you meet up. Thanks!

Trust me, Al, that's at the top of the To Buy list on the way home.

BTW, if anyone wants to party at Eds place while he is in the UK, send me a PM and I will shoot you the co-ordinates. Daren, Paul, Al and I are throwing a big party this Saturday evening at Eds.

You might be disappointed. I locked up all the single malts in the safe. And there's only one or two bottles of Sam Adams in the fridge. So you'll have to BYO. Just please clean up after yourselves before you leave.

Dont worry Ed, it will as clean as Adrians place after we were done with it. BTW, Arleen was kind enough to email me your safe combo... but since I dont drink liquor, you have my word that I will keep an eye on Als consumption of your good stuff.

There had better be no mess, otherwise I'll be over to Canada to let your bike tyres down.

Yeah well James, there's the quick and then there's the dead. You shouldn't have spent that last night partying with those four hot Saudi girls and doing body tequila shots with them til 6 a.m.

That'll teach ya. Just make sure to change the sheets on Adrian's bed.
