I've been up in the mountains with Brian and his lovely wife at their lakeside cabin for the last four days. Pretty boring really..... jet skiing, riding ATVs around the mountain tracks, fishing (caught one!!), drinking, eating, drinking, meeting some great people!

I'll be in London from early afternoon October 9th to midday October 12th, Graham.

Aitch is back in circulation as you can all see. We had a great time up at the lake. Our access to the internet up there is painfully slow so we did not bother at all. We did pack in a whole lot of experiences in just a few short days. Hopefully we have not worn his nibs out. I think not though. He is like the energizer bunny. He goes all day on some good food and a few beer. LOL.

Now we are back in the "big smoke" as Aitch calls it we have a number of other things to accomplish before he wings his way to Toronto on September 11.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK!!

I've finalised my stay in New York for the weekend 15th to 18th September. I'll be staying at the Wyndham Garden hotel at Laguardia.

If any forum members would like to catch up over the weekend and perhaps show me around a bit I'm all ears! I can be contacted via my profile email address.

Cheers!!

How you doing Howard? Looking forward to your UK visit. The red carpet is ready, but I'm desperately trying to re-decorate the bathroom in honour of your visit!
'Rickenbacker'...what a name! After all these years, it still thrills me.

Well, when us Americans found out that all Aussie bathrooms have marble floors with tile and beadboard walls, top end fixtures and HDTV with surround sound for watching while you go, well, we just had to do something, you know!

Hey Howard, when does the tour bus stop in St. Louis? Have you ever been to a major league baseball game? If the Cardinals are in town I'll treat you to a ball game.

And they do serve beer.

You forgot the mirror on the ceiling, Jeff! Image

Bob: My flight from Minneapolis lands around midday Tuesday the 26th and I'll be in town until 5pm Thursday the 28th. Short stay, unfortuantely.

I've never been to any baseball game!! Image

Hey, it looks like the Cards are home that entire week against San Diego. Not to spend Dr. Bob's money, but if you get the chance you should definitely go see a game.
