I think you mentioned that before Bill and wouldn't THAT be a KICK?!?!?! I can imagine sending Skarpi a PM.................

Hi Skarpi
Hope all is well and life is good. Always glad to see your posts at the 'Cat. And speaking of the 'Cat, we were thinking that some of us might come to see you and wanted to give you some lead time to set things up for it...like about 5 years lead time.

Really, it's more like quite a few, and we were wondering if you could do a little legwork on it before we get there. See, we're actually planning the 10 year anniversary of Mudcat to be in Iceland so what we need from you is to set up a few hundred rooms or places for us to stay......as cheap as you can too. Then, you'll need to work out some kind of food thing for a week or so for all of us and of course we have a lot with special diets so they'll PM you separately. Arrange some transportation too so we can get around.

Also, I don't know what the situation will be like by then in terms of travelling with instruments, so see if you can arrange for us to borrow a few hundred guitars, banjos, mandolins, accordions, melodeons, whistles, dulcimers (both types), dobros, and the like. Make at least half the guitars Martins and split up the rest between the other biggies.

Looking forward to it as I know you are too!!!

Spaw
