Exclamation Grant and Susan in Rake, Jan 13 - World Tour Presentation - first time in 7 years

So where's Rake you ask, as did I. South of London, on the B2070 between Liphook and Petersfield.

We'll be at the Flying Bull pub for lunch at noon, and then next door for the Southern Section BMW Club meeting, giving a slide show on our trip around the world. (First time we've given it since 2000!)

They tell me if you want to come you're welcome.

Hope to see you there!

Talking

The post code for the Flying Bull Public House is GU33 7JB, Rake Village Hall is just behind it.

We will be in the Flying Bull from noon onwards for lunch, then to the Hall.

See you there!

Grant and Susan.

Will do - and with more warning next time, sorry!

We expect to repeat at the UK Meeting, though no promises, we're already doing our Achievable Dream and photography, ask the experts panel, "how to get someone of the opposite sex to go travelling, and Susan's doing the Womens Only" too. You guys will get sick of us!

A change is as good as a holiday?

Solutions;

Have it dubbed .. it is amazing how much the voice is the person. (perhaps an alternative voice track )

Subtitle it ..

Ware a costume. A tie?

You'd only need to do sections of it ..

Edit – I know .. second language it in Japanese (or Chinese) … and have English subtitles .. saw a John Wane move that way, tremendous!

Now there's an idea!

We'll do it in Klingon with Spanish sub-titles! Then it's just like one of those foreign films where you know they're going to take off their clothes but you're not sure you can wait that long...

New to Horizons Unlimited?

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
