Sad to hear about your Aunt Neil..... Been there a few years ago when I lost 2 of mine in a year. Take care and just remember the good times with her....

How long are you gone for vacation? ....Have fun and if you don't get to them don't worry IMO...

But..... if you could just give us a taste and try to Qually them before ya leave maybe...?
Thanks for hosting in any case!

Well, I'm back from vacation...that's the "good" news...the bad news is that while we were up in the mountains, my son-in-law developed what we thought was a sinus infection but what turned out to be shingles in an eye nerve. This was after spending the last couple days in a lot of pain, flying back to New York with a 2 year old and then having to go to the emergency room in the middle of the night because the pain was finally unbearable. My daughter says he had to be admitted, put on a cocktail of all kinds of meds, including morphine, and is now at least having "less" pain. It also appears, at this time, he doesn't have his cornea affected too much (which, we have come to learn, can be serious with this condition and can cause loss of the eye).

Soooo....because of all this, I'm now on standby to fly up to New York to help out with my grandson and whatever else. Won't know if or when so, to put an end to this saga, I'm going to ship the cars to the next venue.

Dickie, would that be to your Scales Rd address?

I'm really sorry about this guys but, as we all know, life happens!

As a word of caution, if you don't know what shingles are, if you've ever had chicken pox, you're a candidate...you don't want it...get a shingles shot!!!

Dickie, check your PM, if you can get me that address to me I can get my wife to mail the cars.

Guys, just to let you know what's going on, I have to fly to New York in the morning and am not sure when I'll be back so I let Dickie know it would probably be best if I just shipped the cars on to the next host (minus my car since it wasn't any kind of contender).

Really sorry about the delay

Toy cars are not to be worried about - real life takes precedence 100%. Thoughts are with you and family.
All the best.
Scott
