I just passed 5000 and nobody noticed, so I boycotted the board, but nobody noticed. Maybe I should have held out for more than a day.

Some of us actually started here because we had some innocent question about Ovation guitars and thought this might be a good place to have it answered. Sometimes that works, but the vast majority of the posts are just goofing off. What gets really scary is meeting some of these people in person. I'm sure they said the same about me. I showed up at Dave's, gh1's and Tony's houses, met Stonebobbo out on the interstate, picked up Wabbit at the airport and left him at the bus station and got together with dvd and gh1 at a brew pub with my family and a mess of guitars. Life wouldn't be interesting if it wasn't weird.

That loo is sooooooooooo clean. She is so not a guy.
You don't go on "holiday" to Belgium, you go to have a f)))))g great time. Those people worship beer and food like most nations worship someone in the sky. And at the same time being more Catholic than the French.
Never insult Belgium or Adamas guitars, other than that the world is your target.
And if you want to meet Deliverance Boy ( and I don't mean the Burt reynolds character) be nice. I'm his travel agent. Can you put us both up for a night on our way to the Lake District? I can sleep outside but not if the boat's rocking all night.

Clive, I spent a week several years ago in the lake district. Kendall, actually. Represented a nice little company called Gilkes. Beautiful area. Food sucked, so all us Yanks ate at the McDonalds. Beer was warm. Rained too much.

The beer was simply not ice cold. It always rains in places next to the coast with 4000ft hills/mountains.
I would guess the food has improved. I remember eating in a restaurant in Kendal and asking the waitress if the staff ate this shit. She took it away and came back with two very nice meals 10 minutes later.
But like you say that was a few years ago.
And I've eaten in Richmond so don't lets get nationalistic here. ;)

I DO hope that Andrea can make it to the next Factory Tour (if there is one).

It'll be so NICE t'have someone there to IRON all of those shirts that come out of our suitcases, so that we all don't looks so "rumpled" as we go about our various inadequacies . . .
