Hey guys, maybe we should try to arrange a Minnesota Rickenconfluence when Aitch is visiting our state!
We can show him some Northern hospitality and our best Rics!

Well, if Mitch won't, I will!
SOLD!! ... and winging its way to Oz as we speak.
I'm pretty sure I got the best end of the deal. He gets some braces for his son and I get a beautiful FG 1997. Thanks Mitch!!!

Darn it!! Just received a call from UPS. Customs are putting 5% duty on the value as well as GST. Another $138 AUD on to the cost.
I could have asked Mitch to put 'gift' on the customs declarations form, but "no.... let's not cheat the system" says I! Well, I did undervalue it a teeny weeny bit, so it could be worse.....
I wonder how the hell Darren got away with bringing in 6 or 7 of the things! 'Personal baggage', I guess.....
