Accessories before the fact...

Ooowwwww! Alright then. Hmmmph! I'll come to Vancouver ................. if I haven't changed my mind by next year!

I know it's early days still Bear, but have you any thoughts on what time of year I'll be expected to put in an appearance (PLEASE don't opt for any of the winter months - parts of me go quite a deep blue colour when they get cold and, I promise you, it's not a pretty sight!)?

"Ooowwwww!"
Did anyone else just hear Frankie Howerd?

Hamish,
It's looking to be either the first two weeks in August.
Nothing is going to go blue in August in Vancouver!
Andrew is in town until August 15th, So I'd rather make it the first two weeks in August.
I haven't booked anything yet, but that's what I'm aiming for in this pre-planning stage.

Well, that wasn't quite the voice I was using, but I suppose it does rather come over like that. How much longer are we going to have to wait for live, voice forums on the Internet, I wonder?

That's great, Bear. I'll pencil that into my diary so that I keep it clear of other events and appointments. In spite of everything, I AM looking forward to meeting you all!!!!
