TRF Members, contacting members outside of the forum....

I have never, but do you guys and girls swap email addresses, and/or an outside contact source with other members?

I'd sorta like to talk with some members that have lost their privileges here? And maybe get together with some others still here.....

Everyone of us does it almost daily Don.

Not sure what to tell you.

Could it be all the off color jokes you've been telling through the years?????

Seriously, call me anytime day or night. Always here for you.

I have, they were coming from the US and staying in York for awhile so my son lent them his house while they were here. (He was away) We had some good meals and good tours around York and Scarborough. For a previous time, we met up in London with another forum member.

I'm one of the very few Italians here so no exchanges for me.

What part of Italy are you? We usually go every two years as my wife still has her parents and sisters there.

Don, whatever you do, don't give a certain Dorkelhead your home address.
You'll never get rid of him.

And he flies drones. He could be surveilling your home, looking in your bedroom windows, who know what he could be up to.

And Don since you're so short, he'd be just another guy looking down on you.

I had to give him my number. He said he had some compromising pictures of me, and said he would spread them all over the forum if I didn't. I swear last summer I kept hearing this bird buzzing above my pool....

This is wonderful! I mean so nice of all you guys and girls, meeting up and talking outside of this place, I bet a lot of nice folks.

You'd think my PM box and email inbox would be blowing up, right?........Noooo, not one of you hockey pucks even asked me out for a date.....

I know I'm short and bald but .......short people, do have a reason to live!

As far as those short drone clips, I know a guy, a producer, that can make y'all Movie STARS!

How bout we plan a meet in Rome! Mr. Fmc000, I did catch start of the Mille Miglia in 2011! Love the country but you guys eat dinner way too late!

Many GTG’s over the years. It’s been a long 2021 without those semi-annual gatherings.

Also several members who’ve I dealt with around TRF’s US SEDIV.

Every single sale/buy consists of a phone call and lots of information exchanged.
