Trotty's USA adventure 2008

Hey Everyone,

This coming Friday I'm heading East again, across the Pacific, hopefully arriving in time for MARF at Pick Of The Ricks on Saturday. Graham Griffiths is picking me up from JFK on Friday afternoon and I'm hoping that he hasn't been drinking, as I'd hate to ride in a vomit-filled rental car all the way to Dave Pascoe's house in Bucks County.

In the morning I'm off to Sydney for a three day work conference. I'm sure this has been scheduled to ensure that I'm totally in need of a vacation. Who would have ever guessed that there is actually life outside the corporate world??

You have no idea how excited I am to be coming to MARF and to reconnect with many of my Forum friends.

I'm stopping past SoCal on my way back to Australia, which will give me an opportunity to catch up with the gang on the West Coast. If you're anywhere near Claim Jumper, South Coast Plaza, Santa Ana, on the evening of Wednesday November 26, I'd like to extend an invitation to join me for a beer or three and a serve of those enormous beef spare ribs. :mrgreen:

See y'all soon......
