  OK, looks like you are all planning on having too much fun.

  No seriously... you can't be having this much fun. You see, just a couple of days ago I was chatting to Serenity, and she voiced her need for a vacation. Unfortunately we can't get any time off work until next month, so we will be completely missing the BBQ. This will be my first time back to the UK since coming over to USA to get married 3 years ago.

  So <hint hint> what if <nudge nudge> you set the BBQ back a month? lmao. Just kidding, I just wanted to pop into the thread to tell you all to have as much damn fun as you possibly can. And at some point (I want proof!) I would like you all to drink a beer for me since I can't be there, and send the buzz my way!

  Enjoy yourselves

  I am now going to get myself a tent. :-)

  Just got mine! Tested it out last night, and one of those roll out foam mats. TIP: Don't get a foam mat if you want to sleep at night! Get an air bed instead.

  Keep an eye out for me, I'll be on a silver Honda CB750 and in blue Sunncamp Eurodome tent.

  I do not dare to open the tent. I am afraid I won't get it inside again. Hope everything is complete.
  
  Yes, I got myself a sleeping bag and an air mat. There was a promotion at Wal*Mart, a small tent for 20EUR. Hope it endures this trip...

  Is anyone camping or doing anything on Sunday and Monday as I have the time off work???

  I've got the whole week off and will be travelling around for most of it, if anyone wants to meet up. It looks like everyone will be riding bikes there this year!!!! Me and Reboot will be on a black fzr6 with an exhaust to upset the neighboughs........

  And Fmz, you gonna be in the UK next month? What part are you gonna be in?

  I'm still sun worshipping in Capri, but am flying back on Friday night in time for the bbq, hopefuly it might have stopped raining in England by then, lol. A group of us hired a speedboat today and spent all day exploring hidden coves......

  It looks like this years? barbie will be the best one yet, but sadly I have to say that I cannot come. US immigration dictates that I need a travel document in order to be able to re-enter the US else I risk being arrested and deported. Despite the fact that I applied for one in DECEMBER and they are supposed to only take three months to give me one - notwithstanding all my letters and calls my travel document is still in a "pending" state. I'm devastated! I have to reluctantly ask E?man to scratch me and SpiceItUp from the list of attendees.
  
  All I can say is that when US immigration finally get round to sending me what I paid good money for, I hope to get over to the UK as soon as I can.

  Not sure yet but as I'm coming from Leicester the M5 seems the best bet, though I'm not keen on motorways on my bike, I like the bendy 'A' roads!

  I'm thinking about wearing a sticker to the BBQ so that folks will know who I am.
