Camry5Sgte Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Apologies up front for the sappy thread! But if you read my thread: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?270045-My-evolution-of-Toyota-vehicles-leading-to-my-Supra-(no-need-for-snide-comments-plz) you might appreciate this more. I've been stationed in England as a US Air Force member since July of 2009. I did not mesh much with your country much as the weather really brought me drown and the Brits that I met around the base were really mean/rude. Coming out of Afganistan at the end of 2011, I finally bought the car of my dreams and immediately jumped into the Supra scene. I was extremely disappointed in the comraderie of the US forums despite the abundace of technical knowledge. I joined this forum and was instantly greeted with the camraderie that should be expected in these types of communities. I believe the friends and contacts I have made here have genuinely changed my opinion of this country and I thank each and every one of you. Thank you for being there for me when I mentally needed you most and I will continue to be there for you all spiritually, mentally, and physically whenever possible!

Havard Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Nice to post up your experience Brad. I didn't get to speak to you much on Dragonball but you seemed like a nice guy. You always seemed to be chatting with someone.!! Maybe next time. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Paine Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I will see you there and will ignore you in a truly British fashion! I will then ensure you follow me on a magical mystery tour behind a vw r32 with no frickin idea of where we are going! In the meantime mike2jz who has asked me for a lift will report to police that he is being held hostage. I will get the sack and we will all live happily ever after! Look forward to catching up again! Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Heading to 20th anniversary if u wish to chat Unfortunately I am away Brad but I hope to catch you at the next opportunity. Nice comments there Brad, like Paul I never got chance to chat for a while just a little one near the end of the Dragonball run ....Paul wont be at the 20th because he is in Sunny spain atm, I will see you there its going to be a good turn out by the looks of it Cheers -Ian- As Ian says. I am sat on the balcony with a glass of wine (no ice, so Vodka is on hold). This club is a different class and although I have thought about selling the car on numerous occasions, the thought of the quality of the car and the quality of the club remind me to be grateful. H.

Branners Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I think they said it best in WWII, Oversexed, overpaid and over here. It is great to have you on the forum. Ellis explained about the coin you gave him at DB13 and that shows how much the club means to you so I hope you stick around even when they ship you out again. Hope you can make DB14.

Plans are to hit every Dragonball possible while I'm in Europe. Although I can't ask for special treatment as I'm an outsider, I do hope there will always be a ticket available for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
