Iā€™m halfway between A2 and the D, in lovely historic Wayne. So, Dearborn, Romulus, Westland, Inkster, the downriver area evenā€¦Iā€™m fairly flexible and wouldnā€™t mind at all. Sorry **G** , but if youā€™re stranded Iā€™m sure we can work something out, do let me know. ---

It would be fine with ME if I wasnā€™t, you know, across the ocean! (Former short term - 6 years - Grand Rapdian hereā€¦my kid was born at Butterworth!) Have fun. Cheers, G ---

[QUOTE=Gfactor] Iā€™m interested in a ride, but I donā€™t think Iā€™m on your way. ā˜¹ [/QUOTE] Hey G, Iā€™m not too far from you in the grand scheme of things, if you donā€™t mind riding in my inelegant old Dodge Dakota. Personally, I think it has character, and more importantly, itā€™s pretty darn reliable. You would even get to control the stereo, such as it is. Not everyone gets that honour, you know. Let me know one way or the other, eh? ---

Okay, now Iā€™m getting nervous. Iā€™m painfully shy around groups of people I donā€™t know, nobody here knows me because that shyness thing carries over into posting, and well, I have nothing to wear, dammit. Yeah, Iā€™ll be the quiet, naked beer-guzzler in the corner. ---
