@Megatron1505:

I've spent the last couple of days entertaining two American guests from my companies parent company, based in Los Angeles, who amazingly came over to learn from my vast experience ( ). One of the dudes was a senior technical guy who was really interested in my jeans and boots, so over a few beers I told him all about the denim scene and where he could go to look at/ buy this stuff in LA (Self Edge etc…). He spent the following night in his hotel trawling Google and learning about the denim scene, and also worryingly looking into what I do ( :-\ ), net result of which is a free trip to LA for me later in the year under the illusion of "inspecting a production line".....sweet 

WHAT?!?!?!?! This is great news!!

@Megatron1505:

I suspect he just wants me to take him shopping 

Dude…. You're obviously welcome to come stay with us. I'll even buy you a fish taco and a beer

[Megatron1505]

Thank you dude, but staying a 2 and a half hour drive away from work may damage the illusion of it being a work trip

Business trip = expense account @seawolf , work him for some free beer!

[Megatron1505]

Drunk with a company credit card…... I may be on the job market and/ or in prison after the trip .

Just try and leave sóme of those Mansfield habitudes in Mansfield as you leave, or you'll end up in prison for solliciting…

Take a weekend off afterwards pay your own hotel (aka @seawolf ) then fly back. It's what we all do when we travel OS :).

[Giles]

Which, of course is compete altruism as I am sure the flights will be far cheaper if you stay the extra week…..

[Megatron1505]

I'm sure I'd get terribly bored alone in California with no wife or boy, just me, a pile of money and complete freedom ….who am I kidding 

[Snowy]

Gotta make the most of a bad situation I guess

Exactly. @Megatron1505 You wouldn't come all the way to the west coast, and skip San Diego because of a 2 hour drive would you? I wasn't suggesting you commute each day dude. That's ludicrous. But come for a couple days afterwards. That's just good economics.

Need I remind you that San Diego is home to Stone, Green Flash, Ballast Point, AleSmith…?

[Megatron1505]

Ok, sold

@Giles , can you believe it took this much convincing to get @Megatron1505 to come to America's Finest City?!  Also, staying with Seawolf is a freakin' bonus in my opinion. He lives 1 block from the water! a ten minute walk to BEER and a 15 minute walk to FISH TACOS! I hear he's a helluva cook as well.

[Megatron1505]

I'm a tough sell, but beer and fish taco's is too good to miss 

(Plus hanging with Mr and Mrs @seawolf sounds like a must, I hear he can cook  )

You're a lucky man, Gav… Well deserved!.. Hoping you'll make it over to Belgium some day though... Bring seawolf (the member)...

[Megatron1505]

You need to come to Fish & Chips man, seriously. I'll also be in Berlin for a couple of days before FnC if you fancy hanging with zee Germans.

He'll never make it back to Belgium.

@Seul the modern population in southern England shares 9% of its DNA with the Belgians. You'd feel right at home at Fish N Chips.
