Has it really been over 4 months?

Sorry folks but yes it has. Imagine, in that same time a mommy and a daddy beaver could have made a new baby beaver, but enough about beavers for now.
Those that know me well will understand the hiatus in my blogging activity, but those that don't, let's just say that I'm now officially an orphan and leave it at that.
So, I hear you all/both say, why start blogging again now? Well as I sit here pairing up my odd socks I thought I'd get back into the habit prior to the road trip.
I had planned on doing a retrospective of 2008, it being a shitty year, but winning the joint employee of the year a couple of weeks ago put things into perspective and I decided that there was no point wallowing in the past.
That said it was those past events that led to me saying "fuck it" and agreeing to the forthcoming road trip. Now I could go way back in working out the starting point for the trip (Yes I know it's Orlando), but in a spiritual sense I guess it can be traced back to 1990 when I first encountered our webmaster. Obviously a lot has happened since then that has led to the literally minutes of organisation that has gone into the trip (let's face it we're not climbing Everest here), but it is our shared interest in motorsport, him now living in the US and my gambling addiction that has actually made it happen.
So, what next? Well, the next blogs will be recorded in the Road Trip section of the blogs on the site with pictures making it onto Facebook. It's up to you dear devoted fans to keep up.
I now pass you over to our Grand Marshall for those immortal words....."Gentlemen, start your engines"
