"Stratford-Upon-Avon"

I just LOVE the SOUND of it!

Oh man, Alisha, you are living my DREAM vacation. ONE of these days, ONE of these days!

Before I curl my toes up and check out, I HAVE to get to the UK. I've been dreaming about it since 1967.

When the kids are done with college, I'm going!

You've had the BEST tour guides one could hope for!

Enjoy!

Truly a dream vacation, with the greatest hosts you could ask for, both places. Enjoy the experience! Much fun reading vicariously.

Let's go back to Peter's idea of an official forum tour. How much fun would that be and how could we make that happen?

I'm not so sure that would be a tour as much as an invasion....oh wait, the Brits did that to us back in the 60s as I recall. Turnabout being fair play and all that....what?

I'm all for it!

You're in a beautiful part of Britain, Alisha; lots of great Cotswold villages, etc. around there. Oxford is worth seeing if you get the chance on your way back to London.

A forum group tour...yeah I could go for that. And we could all bring our guitars & basses along. Yeah...I can see it now.

Roll up - roll up for the Mystery Tour.
Roll up, roll up for the Mystery Tour.
(Roll up) and that’s an invitation

Hahahahahaha!!

A Guinness bus........ now that would be a Magic Bus!!.

Every day I get in the queue (Too much, Magic Bus)
To get on the bus that takes me to you (Too much, Magic Bus)
I'm so nervous, I just sit and smile (Too much, Magic Bus)
You house is only another mile (Too much, Magic Bus)

Thank you, driver, for getting me here (Too much, Magic Bus)
You'll be an inspector, have no fear (Too much, Magic Bus)
I don't want to cause no fuss (Too much, Magic Bus)
But can I buy your Magic Bus? (Too much, Magic Bus)

Nooooooooo!

I don't care how much I pay (Too much, Magic Bus)
I wanna drive my bus to my baby each day (Too much, Magic Bus)
I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it ... (You can't have it!)
Thruppence and sixpence every day
Just to drive to my baby
Thruppence and sixpence each day
'Cause I drive my baby every way

Magic Bus, Magic Bus, Magic Bus ...

I said, now I've got my Magic Bus (Too much, Magic Bus)
I said, now I've got my Magic Bus (Too much, Magic Bus)
I drive my baby every way (Too much, Magic Bus)
Each time I go a different way (Too much, Magic Bus)

I want it, i want it, I want it, I want it ...

Every day you'll see the dust (Too much, Magic Bus)
As I drive my baby in my Magic Bus (Too much, Magic Bus)
