That date rings a bell! Sue's birthday is within that week. DOUBLE
celebration for us. See below about champagne and wine. :-)

Actually, I had a hard time finding a cabin for just Sue and me in
the summer months of 2001 !! Most of the Cayman charters are FULLY
BOOKED a year or more in advance. But we barely managed, to squeak
in our 2001 booking several months ago, to keep our annual streak
alive. :-)

Nah, I ain't gonna chomp on the bait (last phrase of last line). :-)
Check out Crusty's webpage on our miniCAIV99NEDfest (a month before
the Coz99NEDfest) in which we previewed Crusty's "Cheating Death at
Every Breath" Official Cos99NEDfest T-shirt.
I think Crusty had such a large number of surplus on those T-shirts
that they can be "edited" (?) (over-printed?) to make it the
CAIV02NEDfest shirts as well. :-)

Liquor also -- though that's not generally advertised.

A bottle of 1961 Chateau Rothschild is a DEFINITE MAYBE. :-)
Cannot think of a better occasion to consume (taste) that sucker,
unless a better occasion comes up before June 2002. <BG>

But don't bother to ask for Tim-Tams or Vegemite.

You mean cash with Bill/Monica pictures on them? I didn't know you
accept those!! I would have paid you those in $3 and $8 denominations.
I've got plenty of them! :-)

Crusty, I didn't know you're such an accomplished travel agent and
accountant (whether you've played them on TV or not). :-)
Thanks for stick you neck out for this bunch of SE-infesters.
(I couldn't resist the bait afterall) :o)
