JK's UK Tour......

Post by johneek »

So I've got a work gig in the UK this month, masquerading as a "Booth Babe" (now that's a major masquerade) at the Farnborough Airshow. I'm planning to tag up with Graham for a couple of days while I'm there before the work part begins. I'll be sure to post some pictures (at least those that are minimally incriminating...unless they're photos of Graham...then I don't care!).

I might as well start with some pictures of something that arrived yesterday from "Some Guy in California" that was sent to me for transfer to Mr. Griffiths. I'm actually a little nervous being responsible for something so beautiful, not to mention valuable. I'm not going to open the box since you've all had the chance to see and read about it here: viewtopic.php?f=14&t=381528&st=0&sk=t&sd=a


Look what the UPS man brought Honey!!!......No, it's not for me.....

Great start to the trip, John. Don't worry about Graham......... he's a big man - he can take it. Apart from that, he's got 360Fs to burn!! :mrgreen:

Have a happy and safe trip and mind your liver! :lol:

Just got back after a long drive from Virginia (strangely enough), that's too funny John! Have a great trip and be sure to document it as well as this heist was.

BTW, did I mentioned I recently picked up a 360F JG?

Heh, John, it's downright serendipitous that you should mention a ransom note. I happened to be driving up I-95 (having just left Virginia, was just passing through) windows down, music blasting, and the car in front of me tosses a bunch of paper out the window. Somehow, some of it lands in my car! Among the refuse was a ransom note. I have no idea what its in reference to, but here is a scanned copy:

Wow John...thanks! This could be an important clue! We better put on our thinking caps and get out our handy dandy notebooks.....Now let's see, what kind of person would be interested in Sussana Hoffs' underwear? Hmmmmmm......
