And so it starts! We expect to hear all the lurid details, complete with pictures (the more incriminating, the better!). :wink:

Oh, and today, the second day of spring, we have 8 inches of snow on the ground with 6 or more predicted for overnight. Didn't I already say U N C L E ! ! ! ! :evil:

Wish I was there with all you "cool" guys - sucks to be here....

Yeah, I know, I still have 3 weeks..... :lol:

Enjoy Graham. "Southern" hospitality is legendary as I can cheerfully recall in technicolor. :wink:

I agree wholeheartedly! I am so sick of winter I could scream, and there seems to be no end to it in sight.... How I would love a vacation to a warm and sunny place right now! ....I know I just had one, but it wasn't long enough, and it wasn't to Australia! :mrgreen:

Well - my first full day in Oz and it's been a blast! We're just turning in now, 3:40am after a great day. It was a shame Darren couldn't be there for breakfast when I woke up, but his wife Robyn explained that he had a hairdesser's appointment that he couldn't break! I must admit, he looked better for having his roots done. I didn't want to check his bikini line though!..........too much information!!! :lol:

We managed to find 2 ricks at Guitar Emporium in Melbourne today, several beers at the Airway Lanes gig tonight, and the a bucket load when we got home!! :D

I think Darren and Robyn have a plan.................drown my jet lag in beer!!!!!! So far it's working!! :lol:

Here's to tomorrow!

Sounds super Graham. I know you won't let those guys drink you under the table....your British manhood must somehow be at stake.

We won't drink him under the table, John......... there's only so much beer you can suck through a straw!! :lol:

Nice time last night..... very intimate atmosphere with 20% of Airway Lanes present. Great company, of course - and Graham seems to have taken to our draught beer like a bush fly to a dead wallaby!!
