Move complete - will be returning to the skies soonish
« on: July 19, 2010, 09:22:38 AM »
As some of you know, I've emigrated to California - after a few years of getting things sorted out, saving money etc - I"m now in the US burning me big fat head in the sunshine (literally)

I'll be returning to the skies of AH once I get a new puter sorted (how can I reduce peoples k/d without being around to be my usual easy kill lol.....)

Transitting up to 29 Palms today - once I collect my guitars etc (air shipped to arrive on the same day we did).


Looking forward to providing more easy kills soon, till then, everyone stay safe and have fun

You moved to the stumps?  :huh  Didn't think anyone did that on purpose. Between the jarheads and the hippies, it's an armpit, or did they finally build a shopping mall down in Yucca Valley?

Seriously, 29 Palms?   :huh  You put all this time, effort and money into coming out here, and you're next to the hottest, inhospitable, damnest piece of earth god created within our country's borders (Death Valley... not a bad place to go camping... in the middle of the winter) during the start of the really really really really really really HOT season?  You sir, if they haven't already melted off and stuck to the asphalt, have balls.  Too bad it wasn't a month sooner, we've been having a really cool summer overall until the past couple weeks.

I advise you to find a shady hole with a working A/C, plenty of water and an interent connection ASAP.... besides trying to gtfo of 29 Palms ASAP.  Then as soon as you can take a trip to the beach and explore the nicer and cooler regions we have in the summer to cool off (the beach, the lakes, the cooler woodland mountain ranges up North).

Bruv... move out to 29 Palms or DV and you, the Queen, and the entire damn British Navy can just help yourselves to it.  There's a reason WHY it IS called DEATH VALLEY.


And here Wurzel, just for you:

Thanks for the welcome chaps, it is much appreciated - for the record, I do happen to love the desert, bit of a long walk to the water though!  :D

Babalonian, you owe me a new carpet, think I wet myself laughing at your contribution - the reason we moved here is we have my wifes father in reasonably close proximity, plus with the marine base, if I can land a job there (IT Nerd) I dont have to commute too far.

Bob, Mbailey, I may very well be in your area August time - still working on the details for that one - bizarrely bailey, I'll be in Allentown visiting a couple of friends - small world huh


Right, off to apply more aftersun/sunblock etc .....its a bit toasty shall we say - but very very nice at the same time.

also, found out I can actually fall off a quad bike lol......and its not the first time  :lol
