These new welcomes to long time members crack me up. Hope you and Jan are well Nige. Once they get the volcano thing squared away I hope you two can return for a visit..
Hi Jim,
We are both fine thanks Jim, hope Joan is OK too.
The Volcano thing seems to be have been hyped out of all proportion and the Civi Aviation authorities are now issuing a Low Risk warning to the airlines. Apparently the only incidents in history have been when a plane has flown directly through volcanic plume and not when the clouds have been blown hundreds of miles by the wind. It has caused chaos over here with hundreds of thousands of people not able to take trips or being stuck in foreign climes. Hopefully we will be back to normal soon.
We are planning to do another big ride in the States in 2013 - the 110th Anniversary year, but I'm not sure if we will be back before then. There are lots of other places we would like to visit, but as always time is the enemy. When we do come back we'll do our best to make some time to see you guys again.
Fer now.
Nige n Jan
