Hi Shady we all missed Ya !! The roundup 2013






Was great to see you all !! :laughing:

Regards Jimski

Hi Pat got your text ! Always happy to help it was a great day good to see everyone ! :laughing:
Now then this morning I found this old briefcase that I haven’t seen for years so I went through it I found all kinds of crap and I came across these from 1985 -:

Do you recognise these Pat? !! Don’t ask me why I still got em !
Anyone remember any of these places ■■








This place I remember Falerna, myself Jim Street, Kev ( Gerbil ) and someone else who I can’t recall on way back from tipping ships anchor cable in Augusta Sicily this restaraunt on one side the road and the beach on the other side ! Whata job :laughing:

Anyways looking through all the receipts I found a discrepancy in one seems you still owe me for a phone call Pat :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
Regards Jimmer

Please note only ONE Vino on the last one !!!
R Jim

I,ll second what Jimski said…it was good to see so many old faces again.
Some of those old receipts look a bit dodgy to me Jimmer,
especially those phone ones. :unamused: :wink: :smiley:
