You South Africans must be really thick skinned. Very nice weld by the way.

Will you be making it to Arkansas this year on your Annual U.S.A. Tour?
Hi Vince.

Thanks for the reply.

I should wear more kit, but often cannot be bothered.

South Africans certainly are thick skinned.

Craig and I will be coming from St Louis, via New Orleans and then Illinois and Iowa and up to Kansas, and hopefully pop in at Clems in Fayetteville, if things go right, we want to pop in over at Ada to see Paul and Brandon too plus a few others....... maybe not enough time, but we will see what we can do.
