So many new people, I am pretty sure this is Working Class Hero with his son. Correct me if I'm wrong, starting to struggle with all the names. :cool:

And here is Farmer John, Tan Y Gaer's neighbour. He was given only one important job all weekend. Tan Y Gaer asked Farmer John to look at all the bikes and choose the best bike.

Farmer John looked around all the bikes and he chose the only Hardley Ferguson there. :shock:

 

Why you ask? Too much sun I thought, if such a thing is possible in Wales........well, he liked it because it looked most like his tractor. :cheeky1::cheeky1:

Talking of weather, how do you forecast the weather in Wales?

If you can't see across the valley, its raining and if you can see across the valley then its going to rain. :cheeky1:

Anyway, more new friends, Mr & Mrs Murf. Nice to meet you.

And after all that Meeting and Greeting, I had to sit down for a little rest (don't tell Christine I sat on her trike). ;)

 

I had a fantastic weekend in Wales and met so many people, sorry if you didn't get to chance to have your photo with me.

After the weekend, I went back to Geordieland with GM, Christine and Vasco. I am going to the Britsh Treffen and then the Luxembourg Treffen with them before heading back to the USA with Foxy and the Viking.

From Calhoun, I would quite fancy heading North to meet all the Canadian members. Any takers?

Looks like you had a great time Hobo ole pal.  I didn't see any police in any of the pictures, so they must have done a good job of hiding you.  I know it wasn't because you were being good! :cheeky1::cheeky1:  See you in Calhoun.

John

Well Hobo, i would offer to take you on your journey but as i only live about 5 miles away from geordiemuppets house, it would not make that much of a difference to a well travelled bear like yourself.

Hey there Hobo, thought you'd never ask, we'll gladly start your northern journey from Calhoun,   We can start you at Canada's capital (Ottawa) then we can start you towards the West or East which ever calls. :waving:

I would gladly host the little fella for a while. By the time he gets into the area from Georgia it will be getting into October so good weather for a handoff could be a bit tricky.

Think it might be best if he kept away from Georgia at the moment

He has to be watched constantly, he is one for the drink, and when he has had a drink he is one for the Ladies, if your hosting HOBO lock up your daughters... :)

Johan,

Maybe I could get down there when the Canadians shut down for the winter - could be fun as I haven't visited the Southern Hemisphere yet. :cool:

Question:  Do we have a map on site showing where Hobo has been? 

If you make it down towards Pennsylvania, be sure to give me a shout!
