2011 Stormchase Chat & Banter

[Cookie]

so whos all looking forward to chasing some storms?!!

[John Hanrahan]

John how are you meeting up with Pat and Arron etc as you will surely be on the Chase with Tour 2 as it goes into Tour 3, we might be chasing on the last day and travelling back to DFW Or have I missed something and got things wrong

Oh crap. I'll call you

[Paul Sherman]

Meant to say how are you going to meet with Pat and Arron as "They" are already chasing with Tour 2 as it goes into Tour 3

[John Hanrahan]

I was really just wondering about what was around the hotel since the lads were talking about Walmart and restaurant within walking distance etc. Then I thought I'd have some fun, but then decided it might be a bad idea.

As far as I know the rendevous point is still on the Friday at Car Rentals around 4pm as Mark lands at 315pm on the Friday.

On the Thursday myself, Ian C, Ian M and Tom have the task of sorting out the Cars after we land and then move onto the Best Western at Irving to kit out the cars, run errands to Walmart for Gaffer Tape and get other things like Batteries for the Weather Radios etc.

We will be going to the Olive Garden on the Thursday Evening and your all welcome to join us if staying in different Hotels around DFW, You might want to spend time looking around etc.

Friday morning will be spent installing Barons and making sure everything is in working order with the In Car Radios, Streaming and Internet etc before we make out way to Car Rentals to the rendevous point on Friday 29th April

Paul we are in on BA0193 same as you, AND we are booked into the Best Western in Irving as you, so was wondering if we can cadge a lift over, otherwise we will taxi it, which was why I though maybe wqe could tie up after the baggage & customs.

[Paul Sherman]

Quent

Yep no worries, it will take about an hour extra to sort the cars so by the time we have cleared customs etc will probably be about 6pm by the time we hit the Hotel, if you dont mind hanging around then no worries about a lift at all.

Hoping to see some of this in 2011 - You might go :wacko: Watching This

This has more rotation than Pat

Twas a Changover Day Mr Q - And technically Mr Cameron was waiting and would not have left the Car Rentals until he found you.

Remember where we dropped you off last year, we always meet in the car park where the buses drop you guys off. So please head for there if we get split up at Gestapo Customs
