Somebody hand Aitch a guitar quickly, or he's going to single handedly create a worldwide shortage of Guinness. :lol: :lol: :lol: Thanks for the pics Scotty. It looks like a great time was had by all.

Aw heck, he'd even be welcome here in Northern Montana! Of course, the only local attractions are watching freight trains and a couple of cool dinosaurs at the local museum. And I've got a way better selection of beer and other spirits than anywhere in town. Guinness is difficult to come by around these parts... :(

Does this mean the Avatar photo will flip around again, when Aitch's flight path crosses the equator :wink: again ?

This has been a most enjoyable thread and a great travelogue !! The U.K. tourism ministry (and the alcohol-taxing ministry) :roll: owes you all a debt of gratitude!

I would have thought "P*ss In The Ocean" might be a little more appropriate Aitch, given the recent liquid heroics of yourself, Scotty, and the double G-ster... :lol:
