    How are you mate? Haven't seen you for a while. Is everything ok or you are just taking a holiday from flying? Missing your banter old chap. Hope to see you back soon!

    Cheers

      Helloww mates. All fine here. Missing flying with you but reading some good WW2 books which compensates a bit. Cheers! Oh, I almost forgot. Weather warm, beer cold and so on...

  4. Toothbrush and camera packed. Taxi soon here. See you in a few hours mates!

      Crash, Thorens has some very nice models. You can find used ones on the net. Rox, a 1200 maby?

  6. ISP was here today and installed new cable and connection box. After summer I will get 100 Mbit. Hope it will be cheap.

  7. Wanna say hello from the sunny and warm Island of Majorca. Cheerio!

      Where are you staying Swep? Mallorca gets a bad rep because of the 18-30 destinations (eg Shaggaloof), but having had the opportunity to see more of the island recently, I found it to be rather nice. The mountains in the north are stunning and the beaches to the east are great... also lots of great food! Hope you're enjoying yourself!

  8. In about three hours I´m laying on the operation table again. Dont know when I´m back flying with you mates, but it is the left shoulder so maby I can handle the throttle reasonably.

  9. Just to cheer me up a bit, I bought a new amplifier (no tubes this time Jedi) which I picked up today. Sound is sweet! Tomorrow is speaker-testing-day. Four different brands will be brought to me by an old friend who is in the HiFi buisness. Poor neighbours lol.

      Nice Crach. Good sounding powerful quality stuff from UK that is.

  10. Done! This surgeon is good! I didn´t need any morphine, he was the bad joke storyteller. When entering the theatre he was singing the theme from Star Wars lol! Not only the meniscus was broke, also had osteoarthritis, inflammation and other worn-out parts in my knee. Took him about 40 minutes to fix. Two weeks rehab will do it. Cheers!

      You’ve been walking around injured this long???

      I hope that they were giving you something decent for your pain.

      I also hope your surgery goes well.

    3. Sweper

      Sweper

      Yep, that´s Swedish health care in a nut shell. After a first check at my local doctore, they remitt you to a specialist. After two-three weeks you recive a letter that says you´re not granted to visit this specialist with in about 6 months. Then they ask you if you like another specialist in another part of the country. And so it goes on.

    4. Tribunus

      Tribunus

      Six months…that is insane.

      What happens if the specialist that they allow you to see is located at a great distance from where you live? You could end up with substantial expenses for transportation, lodging, meals and being off work to get to the city where the approved specialist is located.

      I clearly understand your frustration with a system like that. I hope that you were not in too much discomfort while you were waiting and that the surgery goes well.

  14. Just ordered the big collection of Gilbert Shelton's "Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers" including: "Fat Freddys Cat". A must have for us pot smoking white trash junkies :)https://www.ripoffpress.com/CatPage.cfm?Category=Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers&MerchType=B

  16. Met a very nice looking woman, that gave me that extra lovely smile everytime I met her. After a month or so, I decided, now it is time to ask her for a date. Of cource she didnt show up in almost two weeks. When I finally met her again my mouth and throat was so dry I couldnt ask what I intended too. Root-channel is easier...

  18. My modem broke yesterday so I upgraded my internet speed and got a new modem for free. I went from 8mb to 12-24mb, but only get 11.8 download :( Those schmucks blame it on a bad copper wire from the isp.

      Up and running again. Service guy found a malfunction error shit on the cable and disturbance knot on the wire. I got my 3rd modem since the old/new one was broke. Then the area were I live got a complete internet broke down. I wonder what that cable guy did? Feck.

  19. Great show in the Pacific last night Kimo! I thanked you for saving my a** and that I owe you one. I was wrong. You saved my a** twice so I owe you two!
