Hi Kilroy,
See your'e keeping busy, nice travelogue by the way. Good to see how you guys are dealing with the aftermath of the quake.
Think i thought by now there had been a massive rebuilding program going on & that things
Would be pretty much back to normal, bit stupid really i should have known it takes years of ararguing & hand wringing before that even starts.
Don't get the severe stuff much this side of the pond guess were lucky that way, just get flooded with imigrants instead. (Personal opinion ).have a good day...

I am familiar with your point of view - I did live in the UK for a year.. :)
Nobody here would ever have thought that life would still not be on track this far in - although some predicted 10 years.
I think 20 might be more realistic.
It matters not - life goes on and folks make the best of whatever is on hand.
It has always been this way.
I just enjoy showing how useful Marinas can be to assist in such explorations.. hahaha.

Oh - and that chap who is about to grab a beer at Smash Palace is now officially an old aged pensioner.

That is some really weird shit.
I am now getting paid for being old when I still think I'm a teenager...
.. and hooning around in various Morris Marinas.
Seems they keep you young.

So that's nice..

Cheers.

You got it buddy. :)

Look forward to meeting you lot in person as soon as we can get to the UK.

I reckon touring the continent in an Ital would be the coolest thing.

Cheers.
