Marley and Ninja: Having Their Cake And Drinking It Too! Trip Report - April 2012

Around here, Tiz, we call that Cryling (crying and smiling at once)

:)

Wonderful stuff Marley, mixed emotions all the time. x

Cryling....of course! I've been doing a lot of that since the bale came into my life. LOL And I'm not much of a cryler. hahaha

Loving all the turtle references! I know I feel the need to return again and again ...

Enjoy reading all your trip reports, it helps with the Post Negril Syndrome. Keep em coming
Looking forward to returning to that beach in December and maybe meet some other turtles.

Attachment 15259

Love it!!! Your pictures and words brought me right back to Negril for a while. Miss you guys so much!

Oh noooo… there’s that dreadful shot of the switchblade operation again. You know when Booger posted that same picture; I threatened to throw a sea urchin at him. You’re lucky that you’re my sister. Lol! ;)

Man, you guys are moving through your trip report at record speed compared to us! You are tag teaming superstars! We’re still on Day 2… We’re not even at the Luciano concert yet… I feel like we’ll NEVER make it to the Magic bus trip..

Thanks Bjritz, for the sympathy. I healed up well…It’s a good thing Sandie was there!

Daydreamer - I LOVE that picture!:)

Clarity, ha...I know I know.....I didn't want to post that picture but I felt it was necessary to the content of the story.....lol.....how else would everyone feel your pain without seeing the surgery and the KNIFE! lol
You are a good sport....and WAY better than I would have been in that situation...I am a BIG baby when it comes to pain (ask Ninja)
Thanks for not throwing a sea urchin at me, sis! hehehe
If it helps, I will help you throw one at Booger though....just for fun :)

Speeding? It's almost 2 months since the trip and we are on day 4.....I wouldn't necessarily call it speeding LMAO

And yes...Daydreamer- awesome photo....I am really loving all of the turtle references and hidden meanings that just keep popping up! It's awesome!

Ok, I am going to eat dinner and then hopefully finish off Day 4...stay tuned! ;)

Day 4 (cont).

So we have herded all of the turtles back on the bus and we are on our way home to Negril. Now typically when you go on a long and adventurous day trip, the ride back home is usually pretty quiet or uneventful as most people usually fall asleep or are just plain worn out from all of the fun…..well not THIS group, No Suh! If anything, they were MORE rowdy and loud and fun and playful on the ride back home.
The bus pulls out on the road from Black River and we take one last look at that amazing sunset.

Attachment 15262

Then we crank up the tunes and the party bus moves down the road filled with happy turtles singing and laughing. Due to the roads, it is nearly impossible to play a cd so Chicken switches to the radio and we get a little dancehall going in the bus. It seems the turtles approve as everyone is singing and dancing along. But just about the time everyone got really into the music the radio just cuts off….and then of course there is a big AWWWWWWWWWWW that rings throughout the bus. That’s ok, as Chicken proves, it is nothing a hard BANG to the dash can’t fix! BANG! And yep, there we go….music once again! LOL Cheers ring out throughout the bus and the dance party continues. Now if you have ever listened to radio (or any music for that matter) in Jamaica then you know that they are big on the sound effects. Lots of horns and sirens and various other noises all throughout dancehall tracks. Probably one of the most familiar is the Air horn sound, it is played very frequently in dancehall tracks and tonight was no different. This noise made the turtles very happy. It was as if it was some instinctual mating call or something because every time the radio played it the turtles repeated the noise all in unison! HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNKKKKKKKKKKK!
I just remember laughing..then Chicken laughing….then everyone laughing. You would continue singing or talking or whatever and then there would be the horn again…..and then everyone, in unison….HOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNKKKKKKK! Then the radio would go out…..another BANG from Chicken and then the radio would be back on and soon another HOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNKK! LMAO

Right about that time the gang realized they had finished off all of the Red Stripes and they started to pipe up about it.

“Any more beer?”
“No”
“Are you sure”
“Yes”
“Did you check all of the coolers?”
“Yes, and none have beer”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes”

And this went on and on. So we made a stop at a rum bar. The turtles got off….took beer breaks, potty breaks and smoke breaks, every kind of break you can think of. This continued on several times until we reached Negril. It typically takes about 2.5 hours to reach YS or Black River from Negril, and I remember thinking it took us much longer to get there since it took us so long to actually get on the road that morning……but then I realized that was a breeze because I have no idea how long it took us to get home but I can guarantee it was WELL OVER 2.5 hours. It was definitely a long full day…..a long day FULL of fun! We finished off the ride by *attempting* to finish off the rum punch (aka gasoline). Rock star points go to Mrs. Spottycatz who I believe was the only one able to down some of that without choking! You go, girl! Even better than that, I think I recall her actually saying she liked it! Lol

So the bus finally rolls into Negril, I would say by now it was probably 9pm or later. The first stop was Seasplash to drop off Hubbity. At that point Hubbity invites everyone to join them for an evening at the Seasplash bar and just about everyone takes them up on that offer. However, I told everyone that since I had spent all day and night on Monday in my bathing suit, and then again all day today in my bathing suit, I was desperately looking forward to a nice shower and some actual clothes so I told the gang that Ninja and I would head back to Catcha to change and that we would meet back up with them after. So the bus headed back up the cliffs and we took Guirigay and Sweetiepie as well. They were tired and chose to return to their yard for the evening, so we dropped them off and then the bus headed back up to Catcha and dropped off Sweetness and Ninja and I. By this time it was 10pm and Ivan’s had just closed. Ninja was hungry and we realized we hadn’t eaten dinner so he decided to head down the road to Eddies to get some jerk while I took a much needed and anticipated shower. We figured we would eat and change and then if we felt up to it we would join the party down at Seasplash. That was the plan. But plans change….and sometimes you realize that maybe you make the decisions you make for a reason. We never made it to Seasplash that night, but I have no regrets for why. In fact, I am thankful that we made the decision to go back to shower that night because otherwise we would have been partying with everyone else and I could guarantee I would not have heard my phone ring when a friend called me.

The phone call was from Guirigay and Sweetiepie, they needed our help (and I will let them explain that story in their trip report: http://negril.com/forum/showthread.p...pened%E2%80%A6)
I am so glad we were there to answer their phone call, and after our showers and dinner, we headed over to the Seastar to hang with them and have some drinks and conversation to finish out our night. We never made it to Seasplash, and though I heard the next day that we missed out on quite the party that night, I was not sad at all about our decision to go back and shower. Everything happens for a reason and I think we were in the right place that night and for that I am thankful.

What an amazing day this was. I am not sure I can explain what really happened on this day, because it seems like perhaps it is other-worldly, or magical or maybe just unexplainable. What I can say is that it was one of the best days I have ever had, it was beyond fun, it was full of laughs and good times and good food and good friends, and I think this day alone (for so many reasons) solidified the bond that this amazing group of people now has with one another. I have been asked many times what was my favorite day of the trip and though I have answered “All of them” most every time, and I truly mean that, I think this day tops the charts. Every time I think back on this day I smile…..every single memory makes me laugh or smile. Every single memory makes me miss my friends. Those crazy turtles are my family now and I look forward to traveling back every year to hang out with them all!
Speaking of turtles, there were a couple of them that I got to spend a little more time with this day that I hadn’t previously, but after this one day, we were ALL family! Solidified by this Magic Bus trip for life! :)

Becky – What can I say about Beccajean? She is the originator of “Herding Turtles” I still remember when she said that and how we all laughed. I remember saying immediately “Oh that is a perfect description, I bet we will wear that saying out today” Ha, was I ever right! I remember when Becky first came on the message board. She dove right in and volunteered for everything she could, and I think that is a true testament of who she is. But I also remember how she was so worried to be traveling alone. Ha, that makes me laugh now to think of it. Was she worried about not being invited or included in the party?!?!? LOL….Becky made the party wherever she went. Shy, she is not. She is outgoing and immediately jumps right in to any situation. She is outspoken and as she says “tells it as it is” Hahahaha so this woman who I thought was worried about traveling alone and being shy or not included??!?!?!?! Where was she? I never met her! Ha! Instead we met Becky, who is instantly your friend, laughing and cutting jokes with you from the moment she meets you. She might try to tell you that she is abrasive or tells it as it is, but underneath you will soon know that she has a very big heart and loves everyone and just wants everyone to have a good time….including herself! “Herding Turtles” :)


Spottycatz – ok so I am sure I have said this before, and will probably say it again about just about every couple (and I mean it every time I say it), but…Spottycatz is the coolest couple EVER! Lol But I am serious! Have you met this couple? If not….you are not living! I could probably dedicate a whole trip report to them, but instead I will just say, go read theirs here: http://negril.com/forum/showthread.p...erding+turtles and I will just give you the cliff notes version. First off….they BOTH did the rope swing….I mean really… how kick a$$ is that? Secondly, Mr. Spottycatz wardrobe alone is worth some sort of cool points nomination….those hippie pants were killer. And let’s not forget his singing and dancing abilities, I can still picture him singing at Canoe (more on that later in the trip report) and I smile every time I think of that moment. And Mrs. Spottycatz smile and love of a good strong roadside rum punch, already sets her at a notch above most. Speaking of a couple who can start a party anywhere they go, I think the Catz invented that concept. I repeatedly watched them both walk into several situations where they knew little to no people and yet you would never know. I am pretty sure they treat strangers as long lost friends everywhere they go. They always have a drink in hand, a smile on their face, and a party in sight. They have some of the best stories and some of the biggest hearts. I could go on and on with my love fest for this couple of cool Catz but if you have met them, you know! And if you have not met them….you HAVE to! I consider myself beyond lucky to have met them, hung with them and now consider them family. Damn, my family is cool!

Ok, so that ends day 4 for me…up next is Ninja with his day 4 wrap-up (and maybe even a little special surprise) and then stay tuned for Day 5….the One Love Pub Crawl :)

Beautiful!! This entry made me smile, It was a truly magical day for sure and you summed it up wonderfully!
That's a perfect description of Becky and Spottycatz btw
I agree 100% - Becky has a heart of gold and Spottycatz are definitely the coolest couple I've ever met as well!
I miss everyone so much!

That was nice. xx

Day4: con’t Tuesday April 24, 2012
NINJA's 2Cents
----------------------------------------------------------------
Attachment 15276
Pulling up to the Black river Boat dock area brings back memories of the first time we came here together. The boats littering the water creates one of those scenes you see in paintings, it's a site to see. We all gathered together, donning our bright orange flotation vests we split into 2 boats. Its crazy as you head out how small and insignificant the pelican bar looks, but its a grander experience on the whole. I remember on our drive out we looked over at the coast. Some buildings just way too close to the water. 2 years ago when we went it seems those buildings were ready to fall into the ocean but alas there they were still teetering on the brink.
Attachment 15274
[SIZE=2]this is an old photo from 2010[/S]

Markus and I seemed to talk about the avarice of building ever so close to the water. The need for the one last building right on the water. But still the coast line was so peaceful. Slowly we watched Pelican Bar come closer and closer, my mind awash with memories of our first journey. I longed to see what might have been fixed after our last visit. But more than that I wanted to really see how this band of misfits and hooligans took in this wonder that seemed to be in the middle of nowhere. I realized I had really grown to care about these people in the short 3 days we have hung out and I want them to understand and see the awe inspiring feeling of being in this place and the genius of some one to say hey lets build a bar out there in the middle of nowhere.

Once we were all up and on the Bar we all spread out and soaked in all there was to soak in. I wanted another panorama so I entered the water and headed out towards the shallow area. Its a sight to see from out there. It was just as weird as it was last time to be that far out and ankle deep in water. I came across an area where I almost lost my shoes in the muck but manage to navigate till I was on the land where all that was in the water was the bottom of my shoes. It takes a while as you try to navigate the landscape and do very little harm. So many little eco systems teaming around us. Do you think when we come slopping through their world they think we are a hurricane, tornado or a tsunami. I happily found some sure footing and enjoyed the view. It was breathtaking. The water crashed around the shallow area like a beach in the middle of the ocean or a tiny little waterlogged island. As I turned back to the Bar I saw Markus making his way out to me.
Attachment 15275
[SIZE=2]this is an old photo from 2010[/S]

His first words to me where something like we need to make sure no comes out here. They’ll step on all this wildlife. I remember thinking that sucks for us guess we have to stay here in this spot then. Our wives wont like that. We looked around at all the sea life and found an ominous hole that neither of us were willing to further investigate with a finger or a closer eyeball, but we both wondered what could be in there. We talked about how beautiful it all was and floated around on other varying subject before Guirigay joined and soon after him SweetiePie. We came up short on warning her about the mucky area before she almost lost a water sock. After taking a series of pano with and without GuiriPie in them (which incase you havent heard it enough, those were on the lost camera) I moved to go back to the bar and find my wife.

As I made my way back I came across some turtles under the bar enjoying nature. Rather than disturb them I feigned ignorance of their existence and join the post op surgery Bar inside. It seemed while I was enjoying nature, nature was attacking Clarity. I take my hat off to our personal M.A.S.H. nurse and fellow PB lover Sandie on her quick field surgery.

NOTE: Recently in a conversation with Clarity she uttered these words “Guess what I pulled out of my toe today” or something to that effect. It seems a bit of Negril stayed with her more than just spiritually .

I once again set out to look for our Names [Shauna and I] but alas it seems boards tend to move or be replaced and your tiny existence in a bar like this can be erased, unless of course your name is Boombastic. Eventually we all migrated out to the deck that had not been there when we [Shauna and I] went the first time. We laughed at weird signs and took pictures with each other eventually sitting down for a group shot and a memorable one if I might add.

Before you know it, it was time to head back and with a sad face and heavy heart we board our SS minnows and headed back to the Black river. Right before we left someone or something tipped our boat rather suddenly and startlingly. Enough to illicit a blood curdling short but power burst of high pitched noise from Daisy. The average person would call it a scream, I’d call it more of a warning signal, you know like a red alert. As we headed back the sun began its descent in the sky. I love sunsets and sunrises. You’d think I’d love one more than the other since SR hail the coming of a new while SS speak to us of the finality of one day, but I love them both for the myriad of hues and shadows and shapes they cascade across the big beautiful sky. Between Markus and I our cameras were snapping a mile a minute. Every once and awhile I’d turn to get a shot of my companions especially my beautiful wife but for the most part my attention was focused on the hijinks and hilarity bouncing between the dueling boats [trying to fictitiously out race each others as if in the America's Cup and to out buffoon each other] and the beautiful orange sky. At one point I got a shot of the sun while the moon was out :)

Just looking at my photos reminds how beautiful the sky was.

We leapt from the boats ready to jump back in the bus. Almost everyone had a mad dash for the bano and I caught a glimpse of the love Sandie has for animals. I do have to admit I love dogs but sometimes I think people have brass balls when it comes to getting any appendage near an animal they are not familiar with. I usually give animals a wide enough berth, not because I’m afraid of them (of course my wife would make a manatee comment right about now) but more they are afraid of us so I want them to come to me when they feel comfortable. Sandie though she’s right there nose to nose with reckless abandonment and love a whole lot of love. I’m sure if it was physically possible she’d take every rescue dog she came across whether in JA or in the states and live on some large land with them. To her credit she is a wonder with animals (I mean she has to handle Booger JK).

Well to say we all got on the bus and it was quiet ride back would make you think this band of merry men and women only have enough steam for daytime frivolity. You and I would be mistaken. The party continued on the bus ride back basically in the dark. At some point we ran through all our beer and there was an unending cry to search for more. Dont leave any seat cushion or floor board unturned please make sure you check Chickens pockets too we have to have more beer. UHM NO and No will be the same answer you get when you ask 10 more times in 5 minute intervals. You can always have rum punch plenty of that left. Matter of fact I will have some of that. FInally after the 50th is there any beer I think we knew we’d need to stop can’t have the party running on empty. By now my gas tank was spitting fumes so the stop or stops we made are kinda blurry. I can party hard with the best of them but dont let me sit down and especially dont let me sit down in a moving vehicle. Something about the motion of a car or plane if I’m a passenger that just rocks me to sleep. Lets hope when Marley and I have little Mocha cubs they suffer from the same issue, at least we’ll be able to put them out without my plan B “NyQuil/Brandy”, just kidding folks, just kidding.

The most solid memory I have is our stops to let people off and how the party Rockstar Booger was ready to keep the train moving. I’ll admit I knew for a fact that my wife and I had to miss that train. As much as I have an internal need to “ party on garth” my body was pretty much feeling the last 3 days of non-sleep, and todays “Mr. toads wild ride”. If there was a second wind in me it wasnt gonna come till after a shower and frankly I didnt see that happening (the second wind that is). Had Boogs decided to party at Catcha I would have been all in but alas it was a beach party and the cliffs did call.

But you know everything happens for a reason ;) only sometimes we never get to know why.

-And if I can wax philosophical for a moment, I think thats why tragedies seem that more tragic. Its the unanswered questions but particularly the WHY? We as humans are natural questioning beings. If we weren't we’d still be in loin clothes hitting our women over the head with clubs and dragging them into our caves. Though we live day in and day out with unanswered questions, I think when tragedy strikes we need to believe there is a why, that it just wasn't some stupid random thing. Sometimes we get lost in that bad moment and never can get past the question. I pride myself on being able to see the other side of the coin and try my best not latch on to the Questions. I’ve looked back on my life and realize if it wasn’t for the good things that happened and the ****e things that happened I wouldn’t be Me, with all my baggage and benefits. And the beautiful woman that goes to bed with me every night and wakes up with me every morning maybe some other woman and for me that would be a tragedy. I love my life as it is good and bad, and I love that because of all the good and bad in my life I found myself here now with this woman and her ability to share her love for Negril with me. And well that shared love had brought us to this day, a very good day with the strangest of strangers who I would call besties and family any day of the week. I say in life remember the good days, they really aren't few and far between, we just can’t see them sometimes.-

This commercial break brought to you by Socrates PM. Take two Socrates PM daily and you too can be a philosopher. Socrates PM has been known to cause death by hemlock.

Okay enough of that jibba jab. So we checked back in with our band of hooligans. When we last left Ninjas trip report the party had partied on (that was very 70’s of them, party never quits) but our power couple had left the train... Meanwhile back at the ranch-

Chicken dropped us off last at our HOME and we headed in with ideas of showers and sleep, but wait we need food. Eddies sounded good and against my wifes better judgement I let out on foot. You ask why well cuz thats how I roll. I do what I do and I take care to make sure I get back to my wife no worse for than I left. But I know she worries so I try to comply as best I can. Well not this time. The trek to Eddies was not that bad I got us some chicken and I headed back. Can I say after going to Eddies last year, I have come to Love that place. I could party all night there but that title is held by Booger ;) When I reached back to Catcha aka HOME, there seem to have been a development while I was gone. Sweetness (jah bless) and my wife were at the gate. At first I thought she was as usual worried about me (she was in part) but it was something else. I think sometimes my wife thinks she’s not good in a crisis or a dilemma, but I think she’s wrong. Maybe its when it has to do with her she needs her Knight in shining armor or NINJA but when its to help a friend she‘s spot on. Thats only one of the millions no trillion of reasons I love her. Well I let her handle the issue at hand and stood by for my instructions on how I was to be of aid, as I do. She waited for things to unfold ,so we headed back to the room to eat. After a while we got in contact with GuiriPie who were now at Sea Star, (thanks Chris) and we headed over for a night cap. Some red stripes and deep convo was all I could handle, my body was spent. We called it a night and went back to Sagi to dream of herding turtles and racing speed boats. All in all it was the best of days. Even the sour note the night ended on couldn't kill our happy buzz.

Okay so there was some debate betwixt my wife and I when I should add this next photo to the report. We both deliberated on whether it was to be at the end of the trip report or at the end of this day. We both were flip floppers at one time feeling end of trip the other feeling end of this day. So we came to EOD. If you dont know by trade I’m in its simplest of forms a Graphic Designer (so much more than that but its the easy answer when asked) but I pride myself on being an artist so in true Raul AKA Ninja fashion I designed this to wrap up our best day.

Attachment 15277

Outstanding Ninja!!!!!!!!! I always wanted to be a movie star. Great report of "the day" and the graphic is PRICELESS and befitting the turtle pack. I love it so much. May I share it with my friends???? all rights reserved of course......much love to you both.

Share away

:)

DOOOOOD....you are amazing. I wanna blow this up and mount it on my wall. In fact, if you could send me a High-res image I damn sure will do that.

Someone surely shouldve kept a camera rolling and we would have a blockbuster on our hands. Then we would all be rich and could buy property in JA and have us a little Turtle compound. LOLOLOL

....and all this time I really thought you were a Ninja.....graphic designer huh?

Ninja is my off the books job ;)

OH and Clarity the full res version has both your eyes ;) I edited it for the post :)

Press junkets on Friday nights and a sequel and prequel in the future
:cool:

YESssssssssssssssss, Sweetness...Yes!

Great work Ninja, we need to have a belt ceremony after that one....,

hahaha. Man I am trying to catch up here...my computer hasn't been working right so I haven't been on this site much.

Those are some amazing pics, and memories and some seriously intense memories...a strong testament to the character of folks on this bus trip...is that I never felt like I wasn't having a good time...you guys coulda made me feel bad about drinking til 4-5 am! But didn't. Have you ever met 13 people for the 1st or 2nd time knowing full well you are "hungover"...or...um...more honestly...still drunk? At 8 am?

I was just felt like a slobbering mess......omg DRUNK at 8 am? ....but then we got some food and I sorta came back to life...5 hours in LOL

BTW: I hadn't realized I was that quiet on the bus, but brutally honestly I have forgotten a lot of the parts before YS...like a bus breaking down??? What? Did that happen????? I had a WHERE'S SHAUNA??? moment!

I did suck it up 9would not like myself much if I hadn't). I'd be reading about all this fun...and wouldn't have an active participant...totally wouldn't have had a cool swim with Becca...or been (luckily) seated between the Spottykatz on Boat1, or had a front row seat when someone from "boat 2" flashed their halfmoons...and someone returned the favor...or tried one of those crayfish/shrimp or drank battery acid.

Crazy-azz mofos, all of you and I too will remember it always...

By the way...nearly every one of YOU were feeling pretty good at the tail end of that bus ride...

...and I was the sober one...JUST SAYIN!

Special tx to whoever "had the pleasure" of sitting next to me in the back...Boog...Sandie...Mike...Daisy and Markus...Jon and Tizzy, early on in the morning...the list goes on...epic...forever...lucky...friends!

y'all rock!

Hehehehehehe Brasi

Funny enough I realized that almost none of you knew why we switched busses...which still makes me laugh. We all got off of one bus and onto another and none of you knew why or asked, or even cared?!?!?!!
I LOVE it!

Hey Tizzy.....Where's Shauna? Has anyone seen Shauna?
LMAO

I love you crazy people!

These trip reports from the April Boardie Bash n Trips are so awesome. You have thrown down the gauntlet of true and masterful partying to be yet surpassed, if that is even possible. Your openess to share your adventures with the rest of us, many just having discovered you band of wild ones, is just wonderful. This is annual right? 'Nutha one soon come? Ya, mon. Thanks for sharing all so fun.

No kidding....don't feel bad Brasi, none of us knew about the bus breaking down. LOLOLOLOL We just did what we were told, like good little turtles. I gotta tip my hat to you duders....you soldierd up and rambled on ( ;) Jbritz) And for that you have my utmost respect and gratitude cause it wouldn't have been the same without ya!

Shauna?....SHUAHNA??!! Damnit Shauna where'd you go this time!?! HAHAHAHA

Absolutely bjritz! They are annual. The Boardie Bash happens the last Friday in April every year. And funny enough....this pack of wild ones, most of us met the first time in person on this trip.....of course we all originally met first here on this site....just like you.
So.......will we see you there next year? ;)

You lot are breaking my heart ..... We so thought we would be unable to migrate back to turtle beach until April, 2014 but the more and more us turtles unite the Spottycatz just may need to try a little harder for our speedy return in April, 2013!! Turtle love to you all ♥

That's the happiest thing I have read all day!

Turtle love....I love it! :)

I fully expect you to be there. In fact, I will cancel unless you go, so let me know......

This had me in stitches!! lol - I loved this whole entry, such beautiful pictures too (especially the panoramic shot)
Markus and I will be blowing up that EPIC movie picture to poster sized for the livingroom! That is incredible!!

Marley - omg! the one eye!! LOL !!! ;)

Spottycatz, I really reallly hope you'll be there in April 2013! markus and I are going to do everything in our power to make it there too. We all need to make this a yearly migration.

Booger - You and your empty threats lol - You know you can't resist the pull of Negril. :p

So here's the deal guys. We have to book stuff up really early to make these trips, like NOW, otherwise we can't get flights and stuff. Our last visit was booked 18months before we got there, so you can see the angle on this. Are we to book 'all' our flights now for next April in the hope that 'EPIC THE SEQUEL' occurs, are we to be the FIRST of the Turtle Team to commit, in the hope that the remainder of the bale get their shells into gear at some point! Answers on a postcard would be tooo slow!!

Spottycatz, several of us have already booked our rooms for next April (so far I know of Booger and Sandie, Ninja and I and also wpyogi and +1)

Where are you staying at next year Marley?
