MARU 5137

Hello.. I think it will clash with something else that I am doing in August or when the ipms takes place so no I will miss it. I remember our time sat next to each other on the coach to and from the PIMA museum.. Radu took one or two pictures of ME standing under the aircrafts there and that's when I learned his identity and ended up having breakfast and dining out with him and Martin and others. What a lovely get together that was and we all ended up becoming great friends and having respect for each other. We were and ARE a fine bunch of friends.. have a great weekend . and thanks Chris for putting up some pictures on MY behalf all those years ago on the other forum..I haven't forgotten your kindness.... MARU.

I also remember Ernie and I tried to bribe the security guard and let us go look at the vendors while they were setting up their tables.. AND WE GOT IN !! And had a great "preview" of the stuff on tables and the coup de grace was when we had Mr.ZOUKEI-MURA at out meet and greet sessions with his son thst Mike managed to pull off.. Oh so many memories from Phoenix.. Pure joy !!

Oh boy I remember that... I just couldn't stop giggling... 🤣 then later they were still talking about it when We went out to eat together.... I think Wolf was with us too.. Great times.

Hey How are you. Thank you. I'm still getting the feel of these forums and where everything is... enjoying it here.

Yes I do remember that..

Cupcake.... Hope you both enjoyed the evening out. I likedthuis song which I heard a few months ago . quite a foot tapping song I think...

I would have liked to go and see you and others but if its in August I have something lined up for MYSELF so I cannot come. I think we'll just have to have a reunion at some point !

Sorry to hear that.Sad news.. Condolences to his wife and family . He will be missed in the modelling community. Blue Skie

Whats with the Brylcreme.. was that your leaving gift Cupcale !

I remember that ... it was quite funny. staggering into breakfast!!

Yep remember hearing about Martins weird and wonderful ways.. his forked tongue after the night before... *I was in bed when he came knocking on door to say hey its our evening meal tonight but I was feeling a tad unwell so went to bed* and how his eyes were burned while he was out sunbathing by the pool(as I was) and when I suggested he wear his sunglasses, he said it will be okay The Next morning he had eye/vision trouble and had "burned: his eyes.. Good job that was sorted ASAP It was an amazing time spent with you guys and remember plying Richard Alexander with Beer after beer just to get info out of him about WNW kits(when he worked for them at that time) it was night on impossible!! But it was a great night out altogether for that night out in the restaurant. Then we all staggered back to the Hotel

How can I forget his sunbathing minus sunglasses.

Oh Timmy. How kind of you to say so . Hey did you ever get that Japanese text used on your build? Remember...

I can't see or read his reply but I agree let's call it a day.. as you said earlier their rules are rules. I think LSP is a good forum too but feel happier here here. Thank you all for your support and look forward to 2023 here when I get the time.. Now I have to learn to post photographs too thank you Ernie

Hello Vince. I bet they're surprised and shocked to find that I am a SHE and not a HE. I kept that quiet . ha ha ha. !! Its very nice to see you here.. you were always helpful on the forums.. and apparently EVERYTHING I POSTED, like threads, comments , posts on builds, MY likes and hearts and links in threads that I posted etcetera have ALL BEEN EXPUNGED.. I feel like a criminal..!!

oh what a kind and sweet reply. Goodness ME that is very thoughtful of you.. Nice to be here amongst friends .

Hello there MY friend. Woo Hoo you're here too. I am fine and in good health...

Maybe he was upset that the British Raj had to vacate India! MY payback !!

Its always FUN and joy to follow your builds as the subjects are unique at times Sir. Nice to see you, thank you. MARU

Thank you Alan. 👍
