Hi folks,

Just to let you know that i'm planning a trip with my significant other smurfette to visit South Florida from 11th June - 18th June. We'll be staying in Fort Lauderdale but if enough interest is out there would organise an evening get together for people in Fort Lauderdale or Miami for some good food, drinks and conversation.

What do people think? Either way drop me a note in the thread and we can plan some catch ups whilst i'm stateside.
 
Excellent Jim.

Although you know that I don't do just one :friday

With me it's more like:

:friday :friday :friday :friday :friday :friday :friday :friday

Keep me posted, I might be able to come over from Sarasota.

Conner, if you have a spare liver, ..........you better bring it!!! Hanging with Stephan isn't for the faint of heart!

Right - Papa Smurf and Smurfette are refining our plans. Going to spend 11 - 16 in Fort Lauderdale and then drive down to Miami and stay in Biscayne Bay for a couple of days before flying back.

You won't believe how excited I am about have a decent holiday....!

And Jim is right - going out drinking with me is dangerous - South Beach didn't know what hit it a few years ago when I arrived for a DEMA show. Very, very funny time.
 
sure, wait untill I'm safely back in the north for another visit!
 
I guess my liver is saved, I'll be in Michigan trying to imitate Laminar.

Good luck and enjoy, give South Beach H__L!

Right only a couple of days left before I invade Florida with Smurfette. For those who've spoken to me - will be giving you a ring when I arrive on Weds. Those who still want to meet up drop me a line.

I am definately in for some fun. Sadly, I had planned to take you, Smurfette, and anyone else out on my bro-in-law's 35' boat (he lives on the water with the boat docked out back) around lauderdale and to dinner on the water at the Blue Moon, but two weeks ago one of the power heads blew on the boat and it won't be repaired in time.

Blue Moon is still a go, but we will be pulling up in a car instead.

:)
 
hehe my my.. EVERYONE is makin plans for the 1 weekend of the summer than im booked.:head

granted its my twins wedding :chatup so im ecstatic to be there...but im def missin out on a lotta other stuff :p

hope ya all have a great time
 
Jim,

Excellent stuff - shame about the boat but the company is the most important thing!

Did you get my email? Will be forwarding my new cell phone number to you on arrival.
 
Steve, forgot to tell you before you went – I have found a shisha place in Fort Lauderdale ready for my trip out there in September. You can try it out SWMBO.

It is called Posh Wine Bar, and it is in the lobby of The Waverly apartment building. Here's the details:

Posh Wine Bar
110 N Federal Hwy # 101
Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301
954-763-3553

Have a good time Stateside, buddy, and remember – only four months to DEMA...

So - had dinner with Paul Kotik and Martin Stepanek last night. Ended up in some crazy swingers bar that Paul seemed to know...the last photo showing how concerned I was!

A couple of photos below.
