New York - October 2012

Gavin, you have a beautiful family, and I look forward to seeing you next summer, if not sooner. Thank you for your kind words
I have a hard time forming relationships on this forum. Since day 1, I have been a moderator on this forum, I've never been a regular member. Giles brought me onboard with the intention of taking care of problems. That tends to make me seem like a real asshole. I know it, and I've never denied it. I treat being a moderator as a job, and it's hard (at least for me) to be effective and shoot the shit at the same time.
I'm not going to post up individual shout outs, but as you've probably figured out by the smiles on our faces, we had a great time with you all, and can't wait to damage our livers with you again. You're a great bunch of guys and gals
Back to cracking the whip

Mega- wish i could say some nice things about you too, but i'm at a loss.
no, really, really amazing to finally meet you and your family. Tommy came right up to me immediately and was just sooo cool. very outgoing and well mannered. and his knowledge of older school wrestlers was quite impressive. i really wished he could have suplexed a few of those beer scragglers that wondered over from the movie shoot, especially the guy that looked like Lionel Ritchie. really wish the night didn't go by so quickly.
as for the rest of the motley bunch, it was a pleasure to meet you and make new friends. i tried to bounce around and make time to get to know a little about everyone, some familiar faces, and some not, but each of ya'll very cool peoples. let's party again sometime soon!

I'll say this again. I would have moved heaven and earth to meet you all…turns out, they're really feckin' HEAVY!!! Thank you all so much for including us in the party with your wonderful posts and pictures. It really helped guys like me, feel like we were there. Seriously, thanks for taking us with you. Oh, and tell Kiya to lay off my look...it's almost copyrighted...just waiting on the damn paperwork to process.

Cool pic's Mega and write up about the IH Peeps you met up with.
Thanks for sharing
Cheers

Sorry to hear you had such a rubbish time Mega.

Yeh, you would have hated it SM. Are you going to Rivet and Hide this Friday by the way?

Sadly, it clashes with a friend's wedding so I'm unable to make it. Would have been grand to finally meet you and G&P. Next time…

For those who were not able to make it to the party two Saturdays ago to meet Haraki-san and team, here's the next best thing - Haraki-san on video!
A big thank you to The Crosby Press for coming out to film the party. We've got a few more videos coming out with them in the coming weeks that be pretty entertaining as well.

I'd just like to mention that the NYC trip really hammered home how much trouble is coming my way in the next 17 years, via my daughter.
This is her visit to Macy's:
When we entered the store, we owned neither the purse, nor the notebook. When we left, we owned both.Second, Julie, Benjamin, Caroline and I had a lovely dinner with the Padmores on Sunday. My daughter, who does not like strangers at all, was immediately taken with Giles.
So now, even though she is only 18 months old, I know that she is a dangerous shopper and has terrible taste in men.

Tommy was like that in the Apple store
