I IMed a few of  you guys a couple months ago about coming over to Sunny Wales for my usual business trip and I was a bit delayed. I had to reschedule it for the 21 Aug. I land the 21st in Gatwick and head out to the wild Welsh west- directly to fabulous Bridgend.

On the way to Wales, I would hope that no one blows anything up in London until I can get past Swindon. As you know, I will have refrain from shooting anyone due to being forced to leave all 5 of my carry pistols in the glove box of my pickup truck back in Dallas. It's not that I am concerned for my safety, its just going to bother a Texan like myself if something bad happens and I can't draw down.    

Over that next week I expect to have a pig roast in my honor, maybe a parade or two and I am fully prepared to drink all the free beer that my fellow UK ARFCOMMERS buy for me. I won't signing any autographs on this trip, so don't ask.

Since I have spent a bit of time in Wales I am bringing the usual equipment needed to get along with the natives. I have packed a Stanley disposable razor knife, a half a case of warm Special Vat and a small bottle of 'Sheep in heat' scent in case I get lonely. If your looking for me while I am over I  usually wear a red t-shirt with 'Valley Girls Like it Rough' on the front and 'Swansea, the nicest side of England" on the back.

Have everything ready when I get there.  

That is all.
Heh. Sounds about right for a Yank, huh?

Seriously, I hope to get together with some of you guys while I am over (Taf this surely means you). I go through withdrawl if I can't talk guns for a while and thats not exactly the usual topic of choice in a pub.

IM me if you are going to be around sometime between the 21st and the 27th and I will be sure to buy the beer. Thats pretty big since I use a third world currency and it cost me a small fortune to go on the piss.

Ah shit.

I'm in Denmark again on those dates. (guess which socialist hellhole I'm in right now too)

Texans are my friend, every single Texan, as you don't take no shit and hate people from SoCal, just like us.

Plus the best eating in the whole world is in Texas.

You must have to fend of the welsh ladies with a shitty stick, as they love anyone who sounds like they are not from the valleys.

Sorry I can't buy you a beer man, but their aint no Negro Modello in Wales.

There's plenty of "Negro Mondeo's" up here in LondonVille

Alas, As I'm too far away, stuck in the capital so wouldn't be able to meet up either, but if you can make it down to Bisleyquerque, I'm sure we could accomodate you or any other Texasshireans with some shooting and beer drinking and lying etc.

Way to go! another trans-atlantic hook-up.

Shooters are great guys (and gals) on the whole. Makes me feel warm all over, especially seeing that 'special friendship' that only the British and Americans have in action.

(not like that 'special friendship' we were meant to have with the French! What ever happened to that?)

He is a talker but so am I ....even more so if it involves guns or bikes
We had a great time and I look forward to seeing him again and yourself if you make it over here too.
He can beat my door down anytime he is always welcome here

Cheers

Taffy,
Having seen what SP1Grrl looks like in the Team Forum's "What do you look like" thread, I'd hurry up and invite her over ASAP

And if you can't make it to the meet, well....I'm here baby, I'm here

Unless you like 'em rough, SP1Grrl, keep away from streetfighter! In fact, you're probably not safe in Texas (oh wait you have CCW, you might be safe).

well i think it would only be fair if SP1Girl brought enough of her lovely young lady friends over for all of us to talk with

This isnt a post designed to flame anyone, it  just recounts a true situation.

I was wished a happy fourth of July this year by someone I know, now he was surprised when i asked him if he celebrated all of the lost wars.

Now he didnt click, so i asked him why they celebrate the fourth of july?  

Then he realized and gave me a ''aw sorry buddy''.

I 'm sorry if i have upset anyone with this. But its the truth It Happened. The US citizen involved is a good mate.
