I had a chat with Ed today
I managed to have a quick chat with Ed (RockRolex) today. We have been trying to meet up for a few years now during his annual UK trips but have not managed it. Anyway we did manage a quick chat on the phone this morning, which was nice. Ed asked if I'd post more because I'd gone into a self inflicted exile due to an unfortunate post by a member, enough of that. I told Ed I'd try so you may see me on more often from now on but as there are a few other forums I visit, it may not be as much as previously.

Just for JJ, I told Ed that when we do finally meet up, he can be safe in the knowledge that I won't give him a bear hug.

Welcome back, you old coot! But I'd rethink that 'bear' hug if I were you. In certain circles, the word 'bear' has a very particular meaning

Howdy, Adrian. Welcome back to TRF, my friend.

Pay no attention to that silly Dutchie prattling on in the post above. Well, I don't have to tell YOU, do I ?!?

Hope you and Ed do actually get a chance to meet. That would be great!

Who are you calling a coot Dutchy? I have all my hair. I did say I would not be giving Ed a bear hug.
