Another Thanksgiving in Sarasota
It is generally assumed that a state which has George Bush's brother as Governor and is lashed by hurricanes fairly regularly wouldn't fear much. But the one thing that the inhabitants of the Sanatogin State really worry about is happening. The OCCC have confirmed that we are returning for a fourth time to play in the Sarasota International Sixes.
New skipper Steve Bailey issued an open invitation to all OCCC members to take part this week. A translation of Bailey's statement is available on request.
"As those of you went on the full 2001 tour will know several OC's are still wanted by Special Agent Mike Lopez of the Orlando FBI. Bearing that in mind, the plan this year is to fly in under yank radar (the Colombians all do it all the time) on Wednesay November 21st and (hopefully) get out again on Monday 26th (ie before they catch up with us and Bondy has to spend 8 years in Sing Sing as Bubba's roomie/bitch/dongcleaner).
"We have an action packed few days planned (being organised by the Bart-man - Lawrence's son-in-law for tour virgins) for those of you who worry (for different reasons) about Rik's/My organisational track record at such things. This will include finding the redneck in Florida (probably called either Cleitus or something-Bob) who owns the fastest one of those really cool hovercraft-type boats with the fans on the back. It will be good.
"Anyway, we will need to book flights by the end of the week so time to put your money where your mouth is. Flights to Tampa (out on the 21st, back on the 26th - the Maccas and Wongs are going on the 20th for anyone who finds drinking three bottles of red wine followed by two of scotch a pleasant way to spend your first day on holiday) are going to weigh in at about £360 with BA. Will get back to you when we get an exact number and number to call with Credit Card details, if that's a problem for any of you cats let me know. If anyone is even thinking about lezzing out they should bear in mind that they will receive months of calls/threats/whining/annoyance/irritation (above the usual) from Johnson and as we all know by now that just isn't worth it.
"Finally, this year's blacks are: West 14 Mules (strong lager, ginger beer, creme de cassis), smoking jackets and pipes), Johnson sleeping with the fishes, Trevett and Williamson finally getting it together in that special way, me clearing the pit and Bond not agreeing to everything Lol Parry says."
The OCCC takes no responsibility for any offence caused by Bailey's complete lack of decency.
Details
# You will need four days off work (Wed, Thu, Fri, Mon) and an iron constitution
# We will be staying at one of Florida's top hotels, the Holiday Inn, Sarasota (due for demolition early 2002) at £25-35 per night (extra for rooms away from McDermott)
# We will be playing five games (unless we go and do something stupid like qualify for the semi-finals).
# No Pelican Shield match (lucky as we're flying at the time).
# It will be another opportunity to accumulate more OCCC tour kit.
# You must let Bailey know immediately.
