I am new to this forum and it was introduced to me by a fellow TDM rider and member of this forum “muddy” last week on Friday morning I met him just before we boarded the Stena Line over to Holland on our TDMs.#

)You are a bit like me then as I just moved there in september coming from London, Crown Wood Pub is just of the A322 roundabout if you coming from Twon going to Sainsburys, at that roundabout tur left instead of right and it's about 500 yards on the left near a St Martin's shop impossible to mis it.

Hey Ricardo
Great to see you made it to Carpe. I've just got back from my travels today. The weather was incredible in Holland, hardly a cloud in the sky for 2 weeks. But the the price of petrol
Of course you can post all the photos you like with me on them. People here were gonna find out that I'm a babe magnet sooner or later anyway.

What stuff have you been smoking in Holland
Anyway you are absolutely correct, Holland has always been very very expensive to fill up and also the conversation rate and charges on top of that, kills it.

Humm 6AM is a bit suspicion but I guess G was feeling a bit guilty for letting me there all alone that he must of thought maybe you made up for it and stayed until the following morning there.
So are we going to arrange another meeting? I'll send you both a PM with mobile number.
