There have been changes to the plan. I am to be joined in the US by at least one, and possibly three mates. We are going to fly to New York, spend four nights there (frequenting a club named PopBurger), then its off to Las Vegas for three nights, staying in the Stratosphere Hotel & Casino. From Vegas its a 4/5/6 hour drive in a rental car to Los Angeles, where we’ll spend two nights before heading down to San Diego for another two nights. I think thats 11 nights in all. From San Diego the lads will head back to New York to fly home and I will catch a bus down into Baja Califonia.

Roll on September……

    Hello Mr Jones
    I would like to start this short message (I’ll blabber on no doubt so forgive me) by firstly apologising for neglecting a website I am learning to love. I enjoyed watching it grow but recently have actually been doing some work during office hours and not just updating myself your life, travels and thrills, which I must say is fit for the neighbour’s story board (heard you’re a fan…)
    I feel I should I should make a note as to the accuracy of your pic’s though (for future reference when you look back on this website in years to come) – The charming boy-ish looks in your photo’s seem to have developed into a more Jesus approach, with rugged long hair but lacking sandals, well when I saw you anyway… Is this now becoming the new look for all? Dave what have you started?
    I did say my initial reason for dropping a note on here was because during a conversation on Friday 1st July in a public house, I stated that I found you intimidating Mr Jones but this façade seems to have dropped – maybe because you do not have the title of the close friend of a boyfriend/best friend/lion (you know what I mean) so I feel you have lost the scariness of me feeling I MUST get on with you but am now allowed to actually genuinely make up my own mind – does that make sense? It seemed much easier to ramble on about when dosed up with ethanol (in the form of vodka of course) I have to admit…
    Right – well I hope this addition makes up for the lack of love I have had recently for your website and I look forward anxiously to the trip commencing.
    Enjoy.
    Ps. you owe me a drink now I think, Mr Godwin is my witness…
