    Default NADA Show - problem & disapppointment......

    This is just to report that I have recently developed a painful ear infection, as of today I am being treated with antibiotics, and the doctor has advised me against flying.
    As a consequence, I have regrettably had to cancel my trip to Chicago.
    Needless to say I am very disappointed that I will not be meeting all you fine folks who will be there, and sharing in the fun that I was so looking forward to.
    To make matters worse, the flight cost was non-refundable.

    I wish all those attending a wonderful trip and time at the show.
    Paul

    Sorry Paul. That's two down this morning! (Pat) I've been dreading something similar happening myself. Ah, the joys of ageing. I hope you at least get a credit.

    Sorry to hear that Paul. I've been amped up for weeks to go and it was a real downer to realize I was not going to be able to go so know exactly how you feel.

    Thank you for the kind thoughts, John, Steve, Don, Willie, Pat & Jerry.
    Very sincerely, I was beside myself anticipating meeting all you folks and many others too. Very excited about it.
    I'm feeling badly about such a wonderful opportunity lost - hopefully there will be another time !

    I was looking forward to meeting you too!

    Have you thought about driving? I know it's a long ways, but.......... I just like driving. Drove to both coasts and Calgary!

    Hope you are feeling better!

    Just getting one last look at the forum before getting ready to hit the road and hear this...
    Extremely sorry Paul having to deal with this infection and having to miss this event. Additionally that your out on the flight $$$. Your one of many that I was looking forward to meeting.
    Take care my friend and only hope were able to touch base at the next show.
