I'd really like to go. I've got a lot of time for that man. He pretty much "saved" Commodore in the UK.

I'm really looking forward to his book.

i'm a regular visitor to the museum and I booked my tickets as soon as Andy told me about it. Hoping to get to speak to you and Dan there too if possible.
