Will try to be there on the 16th. Gonna be tight. Really hoped to be there - got lots of questions and a few stories to tell. Returning from Boston-leaving Windsor,Ont. on Mon. the 11th. Maybe with a tailwind. (not the case on the way east-Delis don't like a 20 mph headwind on the prairies @ 110 kmh. talk about sucking fuel!) Not making much more than 700km a day with the toons (twins) along.

Hope to see all.

Thanks to Glen and John for a very informative day ,you did a great job, it was well worth the drive.Also to the fellow enthuseists who shared their Deli experiences. The catering staff friendly and attentive. And the unnamed volunteer for the towing demonstration :o :-D :-D :-D
Glen I still cant believe that door was such a perfect match and John I'll shoot you an email in a week or two to talk parts.

cheers all

Thanks Glen for putting on the show and tell. I'm not sure if I'm too happy about providing the demo "bad motor job" for all to see, but on the bright side, Brian can now look at himself in the new side mirror and comb his hair when we're out camping. Oh, good eats too, thanks to the young "hostess with the mostest" handing out goodies and cookies.

Thanks for taking the day to spend talking to all the deli-ites!

Yes, thanks Glen. Though we'll be leaving the Delica family for a bit we just had to stop by. Was very informative, and yes your son was a great host. Hadn't realized till we were on our way that there had been time for our son to play some Guitar hero. Nice.

Was cool driving up from Vic and playing match that Delica to a username! Don't think Kathy and Brian saw us waving frantically at them on the Nanaimo bypass, was driving the other Delica this time. Well we only have the one.

Regards,

Was that you guys in the white deli near Aulds Road (Costco?). I saw a deli through the hedges on the median, but didn't think you saw us.

Hey Kevin, I missed you entirely. I was there from 10:30 to 12ish. You must have got there just after.

Would have liked to come by earlier, but happened to have an all night visit in Victoria before making our way too Glen's.

We were driving;

and saw you two, with trailer, headed south between costco and the Rutherford exit.

Got the new shocks that I'd picked up there install, what a world of difference; off course.

Hi Glen, The TardisDeli will traverse Time And Relative Dimension in Space to be there this Saturday the 16th. Not sure if we'll camp, but we remember the route from last time. Thanks for organizing this.

Hope John from Rocky Mountain can make it too. John, I'll email you also, I think my left inner tie rod arm is clunking if you have parts, and maybe time for some pretty coloured bushing bits on the tie rods -- technically speaking.

See everyone there.
Cheers, Christine and Jay (cell 604-961-1390) of the TardisDeli.

I will be there. Looking forward to seeing everyone. Last week was good. I have tie rods in stock. I will bring some with me.

Anyone else need anything? I will have special pricing and it will save you shipping.

Hey Glenn,

Had myself some good curry in your old town... tasty! And I'll most likely see you on Friday or Saturday as I'll get a ride with Falco so see you then.
