So true, but I've spent my fair share of time at airport watering holes, when they're the only port in the storm I'm always happy they're there.FullySilenced wrote:nuts to buy at an airport bar

It is well past 5 in LA, around 4 hours or so as of your posting.
. It is sometimes a lot of fun to have a morningcap.
Enjoy your visit.

Welcome to America Crow, outside of the airport bar $45 fun tickets would come close to buying you 45 beers...Hope you and your Gal have a blast here...and fate keeps you away from some of sporadic violence that seems to happening all over the world
I run a 6" 4 x sieve plate bubbler (flute), all hand made by myself, Custom Copper Fabricator mounted on my 100ltr boiler...my approach to Hobby distillation is safety 1st, quality a close 2nd and making good friends with similar hobby's as myself.

Re: 10,300 miles as the Crow flys
We survived the pub run although do feel a little injured can't help but feel sorry for MCH heading into the city to work. Yep fully I will look into that as the local aa&t shop here had sold out of cheaper phones and really had nothing worth getting for under $79 , add a sim and credit and that a pricey temp phone. We did get a sim for Suzies IPhone as that was unlocked . Seriously weird loo Jay .
Yeah Hank they even got showers and all inside
So went walking down the road and come across a creek with blackberries in full fruit, Bush Tucker man abroad![Mr. Green :mrgreen:](./images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)

Re: 10,300 miles as the Crow flys
May only get the free ones online not sure... but check it out as the samsung one that's 29$ is a decent phone... the other being free for the price of a monthy card ... well can't be beat don't think these phones would not be considered old basic phones compared to the later models...
I think they are on verizon as well ...
FS
If you have the funds the 179$ S5 Samsung is a good phone and it's waterproof compared to the others ...

Re: 10,300 miles as the Crow flys
Yeah FMH that place looks really nice , we'll
see how we go from time as we stayed out at Dulles a day longer than we were gonna. The 36 he trip was pretty brutal and a local couple shout Suzie some Henasy shots that done her in
, I went out yesterday to the air and space museum and that was a trip seeing the actual Enola Gay , discovery shuttle and other craft that made and changed history. I hope I get to see the NRA museum before we head out to DC as it is apparently 5 or 10 from here. Thanks fully for the advise on phones been checking some of them links and they look like the way to go

Re: 10,300 miles as the Crow flys
If you're inside DC ya gotta go to the Maine Avenue fish market and tear into some awesome seafood from the vendors along with a few cold beers. MCH can direct you to a good pub.
