Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

HELL YEAH!!!

I would love to travel, meet interesting people and,,,

Well Meet Trev anyways. :okthumb:

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

I retract my last statement due to Trev's greed.

:hmm:

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Nick...put me down for two... :) :clapping: :)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Can we have an option of an eating tour through Vancouver with Nick? :)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Oooh, an eating tour sounds awesome!

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

That sounds great...I'm up to some good groceries :) :)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Anytime you are up , it would be my pleasure , both to take you out for lunch/dinner and to have you at my home.:)

Currently I am making spaghetti and meatballs for the family here.
A little caeser salad to start and my eldest daughter has made Newton a birthday cake for dessert :)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Oh is it Newton's Birthday today???? Happy b-day Newton!!!

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Thanks Sin ;)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Is Toni part of the package? :groucho:

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Mmm that first restaurant looks awesome!! :)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Count me in! Can I take a little sidetrip down to Sevenoaks? I want to see my old house. :)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

If we can get you over the ocean, then we need to meet up in Vancouver! I still think a small "let's just have a good time and if some business gets done, even better" gathering there would be incredible.

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Sounds great to me. Is Nick paying? My budget doesn't stretch to joy jaunts to Vancouver. :)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

why don't we just have a non-convention related oprano party?

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Seriously, if we orgainised a meet in Vancouver , I'd be delighted to host :)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

I would totally go to an event in Vancouver, I'd be able to afford it over there & its close enough to home I wouldn't have to worry about work so much...

I know a lot of people are on the island too like the Shemp & Brav & I know LOTS of ppl in Vancouver, MaskTVMaura, and Itchy & stuff..

Lisa if you could make it up from Oz that'd be kickass! I was down there 5 yrs ago on a working holiday visa... went up the coast from Sydney to Brisbane (I love Brissy) Ahh the memories...

We should look into organizing something, even if just something 'smallish'! :)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

i'd do it, haven't been since i was in short pants. (as opposed to my current state....no pants)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

You're more than welcome in my home ;)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

:clubinhan

Who calls you "crumpet"? Who posts your name with loving smilies? Who's NOT on the list????

Just remember: revenge is a dish best served cold. Worry about it. :mad:

Now, on to the response to the original question:
1. I'm a mod, and ineligible.
2. I don't fly, which pretty much takes anything involving air travel out of the picture.

However, if I ever was going to seriously consider getting on a plane, it would be for this incredible trip. This is one fantastic idea for a contest, Nick. Not only the prize itself, but sending the winner to a place where he/she/them will be greeted by an Opranaut (even if it is what's-his-name) and his lovely, talented, beautiful, way-too-good-for-the-chav-she-married wife and be shown around.

Once again, Nick, you rock. :rokk:

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Whoa... harsh!!!



I kinda got a semi :yowsa:

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Have I won yet? I need to make dog sitting plans. Thank you.

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

I'll make up the spare room - I hate making Toni sleep on the couch ;)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Oh, sure. A "semi."

Like *that's* going to help your cause any....

:clubinhan

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

My semi seems to be a pleaser... hell a full on hard-on would starve my body of blood :yowsa:

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

LOL

So is this a trip to England or a Social gathering in Vancouver? Either way I'm all for it! :D

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

And the downside of that would be what, exactly? ;)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

There's a first, Sunderland being classed as a trip to England... :yowsa:

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

I think Mods should be elligible too.

Now what task could the challenge take?

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Oh bugger, I must have forgotten to mention I'm moving to BC this week... maybe we should do a Vancouver trip :yowsa:

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

You've seen "Climbing for dollars" on the Running Man right ?

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Don't you fucking start... ;)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Climbing for dollars is cool :) up a smoke stack in Sunderland

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Oh fuck.... we'll need to get some built as they got pulled down about 30 years ago :)

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Ah well venturing anywhere past Oxford St makes me shudder lol

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Mate, you flew over the North East to get to Canada, you've also got to do a return trip :D

Re: New Oprano Competition!!!!! Airline Tickets
 

Yeah not looking forward to 9 hours flight stuck next to some fucking monkey who loves to chat like a motherfucker .. it will be shut the fuck up, I dont know you, I dont want to know you and I can make this trip extremely unpleasant for you .. then a 2 hour coach trip .. fuck I want to move here man .. was looking at a mustang this morning and wonderful cars .. superb apartments and looking favourable over Spain mate. A real possibility !!
