Skiprat does America

[skiprat]

Hi guys, it looks like I'll be visiting your shores again in the not too distant future. I have a training course to attend in Mount Pleasant PA. Near Pittsburgh, apparently
I don't have a date yet but I would be there for about ten days.
I just wondered if there is a good pen kit merchant within about 3-4 hrs drive and open on the weekend? I want to take advantage of the strong pound / dollar rate and fill my suitcase I know I could buy on the internet, but I like to see stuff first[8D]

Steven,you might want to give (splinter99) a shout(e mail) he lives in the area and one heck of a nice guy and works at harbor freight in pleasant hills.

Steven - If you're willing to drive 3 hours, visit Berea Hardwoods in Berea, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland. Not sure if you're familiar with their kits or not... http://www.bereahardwoods.com/new/

I work about 5 minutes from there, so I'll meet you for lunch!

You could have a skip diving party at lunch.[] Might find some interesting stuff in Berea's skip.

Cheeky Sod!![][}]

I believe it will be Sept/Oct, when I know the dates for sure and find out what the program is, I'll post again and see if anyone local would like to meet up.
Cheers

[skiprat]

Gee, and I thought you guys were my friends[}][]

I wouldn't put it past some of you buggers to tip them off either!!!!.

' Mr Customs man, watch out for the scruffy character arriving back from The States, he has some dodgy stuff in his bags'[}][8D]

 

[GoodTurns]

I think a tip off is a good idea, hope he has a rubber glove that goes up to his elbow! LOL

Steven .... do you have the dates for your trip to Mount Pleasant? I'm flying up to Pittsburgh over Labor Day Weekend (September 1-3) to visit my mother. She isn't feeling well but I may have some time to get away. My family doesn't live too far from Mount Pleasant.
