Obviously the answer is next year (time to plan ahead) you need to drag her (and yourself) over here. August for us is generally a great month (birthdays, anniversaries--next year will be our 30th) and we will keep the two of you busy. [:D] beer, corn,steak,air shows, state fairs and rodeo's, road trips to Deadwood, The Little Big Horn, and lots of strange and "exotic" (in the sense that you'll never see anything like it in France) to keep you both busy and your minds off the past. [:)]

And a damned goood place for your lot! Why aren't you with the bulk of your country-men in Orlando? (At least in August it generally seems like every Brit in the world is there, generally queing up in front of The Rose and Crown).

We are already planning an "exotic" ride to Scotland. We already visited Edinburgh, the Trossach's, the Grampians and the Highlands; we are now planning for Islands, but we don't have decided yet if we should aim for Lewis Islands or for Hebrides/ Shetlands.
Although i 'd like to meet you in...(searching on a map)...hmm, oh, Nebraska, i think Claire is not very glad with the idea of visiting USA. (wich is sad, because from my own i can only imagine giant steack and new beer [:o] ).

Go to Orkney! Everything from pre-historic stone rings to the remains of the RAF and RN bases at Scapa Flow. And wrecks to dive on too if you're into that.

BRRRR..... cold wreck diving! Bermuda, or Truk or Kawejalin would be probably a lot more pleasant. [:D]

And airplanes! Don't forget airplanes! [:D]

- The only airplanes that interest me are those downing the japs planes of my opponant by hundreds [:D]

I guess we'll just have to visit Europe again. It's been a while. We were planning to have gone there this summer, but the surprise orders came up, moving us another 1,500 miles from Europe. (And the hassel of moving in general).

Like I told Walloc last night, it's easy to find Nebraska. Look at a map of the USA and try to put your finger dead center. 10 to 1 you'll not only find Nebraska, but probably hit Omaha! That's it. [:D]

- We have a saying for those kind of place, but as this a familly forum, i can't really say it there....

Yes, but real WW1 battleships and cruisers. Yummy.

The Royal Oak is there but, like HMS Hampshire off the west coast of Orkney, is a War Grave and therefore illegal to dive on. The Royal Oak's resting place is marked by a bouy and an oil slick as her fuel tanks slowly rot and leak.

Did they ever declare the minefield that Hampshire sailed into completely swept?

One of my Brit colleagues traveled on business to Australia a couple of years back. When they asked him if he had a criminal record he came back with "I didn't realize it was still a requirement." That got him the full security check as well.

It seems that customs and immigration officials everywhere are seriously lacking in a sense of humor.
