To be or not to be
For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

I think that every temporary custodian of the hat should add some sort of decoration to it - badge or pin or whatever. And I think it should stay in Russia but only if you can leave it with someone who'll pass it on to someone in the true spirit of travelling titfer who'll keep in touch so we know where it is.

In fact the hat ought to have a blog.

I vote for roll it up tightly and shove it up your rectums.
On second thoughts you'd all probably enjoy it.
Where ever I lay my hat.....

Too late to give it to me for a trip to China - I've just arrived.

there are lots of trips that forum members are doing over the next few months...


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I'm off to Dubai on 24 december, I could wear it ( :smt103 ) at the Burg on NYN, maybe even get it fixed to a rocket?
I hate it when people ask if you have a bathroom, I want to say "No we pee in the garden"

If it comes with me to Japan, it'll have already gone through Dubai twice before you go there .... in fact I'll be there during the early hours of this Friday morning on my way back from China (though without the hat)

Yes you'll be able to do more of showing it the sights ..... with me it'll just see the inside of the airport terminal!
