Two Weeks From Today

Post by winston »

Man,

I am getting excited. I talked to Howard and Ron last night on the phone (we do that occasionally) but yesterday was a great day. Life has been full of twists and turns over the years but overall it has probably never been as interesting as it is for me right now. We just welcomed a new grandson to the world last night his name is Everett Laurus Medway. With a name like that he'll probably be a lawyer after he's finished university. LOL

and,

Two weeks from now my wife and I will be boarding Air Canada to go over to Australia and meet up with Aitch and all the lads from down under. We leave on Saturday the 24th and arrive on Monday the 26th. Look out Australia you'll never be the same! 8)

It will be good to see our good friend Aitch again, we had such a great time with him when he came to visit us last year. It will also be great to actually meet Ron, Darren, Greg, Frank, Shane and the rest of the locals who may have the opportunity to cross our paths in the Melbourne area. The gang are by all accounts arranging some fun get togethers and the occasional jam session. Did I miss anybody? If I did it was not intentional, as I say the excitement is building.

Thanks Aitch for everything, we'll be seeing you again real soon.

Hey Brian, congratulations on the arrival of your Grandson!
Looking forward to getting together when you arrive! Aitch is the best at arranging places for you to go and things to see, so enjoy!

Thanks Greg,

The little guy is home now and I am happy for his mom that he is such a good baby. He seems very content.

Looking forward to meeting you.

Hi Brian :D

Congratulations on becoming Grandparents.......I think the beauty of that is you can play with him all you want and enjoy watching him grow but give him back to mum and dad when that dirty nappy need changing !!!

Have a pleasant flight out...........see you soon :D

Hi Brian.

Congratulations to you all once again on the arrival of Everett. With a name like that he should end up being president of Boeing!!

I'm really looking forward to your arrival. Apart from anything else, I need a break from work! Our trip to the beach and a few other things aside there aren't many activities planned, so we can 'wing it' and do things as we please.

BTW.... I have had all my guitars microchipped and two door sensors installed, so you'll struggle to get anything out the door!! :mrgreen:

Nothing has changed Aitch,

I'll see you on Monday (to me it will still be Sunday). Confusing or what? I'll resend the flight info again when I get up in the morning.

Bye for now as this will likely be my last post on the forum for a while. 8)
