Sounded like a fun trip, Dave :thumbsup:

Looking forward to the video.

I saw Chris Leslie yesterday and he is in a bad way really. I told him about your trip so I will pass on my dvd when I get it and hopefully cheer him up.

Sandy you must let me know what exactly is wrong with Chris. If you have told me before while I was ill i will have forgotten. :oops:

I like Chris a lot. He is such a nice guy. I was wearing that very first MMA T-shirt that he designed (with the car cover) while I was in the US and showed it off to the Yanks because I doubt anyone has ever seen a car shirt done quite like that before. :lol:

April or May sounds good to me. I'm marking my calender. Ooop's! May 6th is our wedding anniversary. Are we still talking about bringing our wive's next time? I know mine would love to come along. And this time I will rent a new one, car of coarse, unless I end up buying a new SRT8. :s003:

Then we would meet ya'll in Denver then, hall ass up the Pacific Coast towards home after our cruise. :wink:

It would be great, seeing all of you again! :s017:

Hi Dave,

Without hijacking the thread, it is still tendon/muscle trouble. He can't hold a phone or mouse so he is kind of cut off a bit now. He still has the Chargers though, but I suspect he will never get to drive them again.

The only thing that has my wifes interest is Vegas. She has a 'thing' for gambling. She hates cars and long drives. :frown:

I got it! She can come and we can dump her off at Vegas,,as long as there's a big food buffet and slot machines she is happy.
