I will be going to the IWF having gained my good lady wife's approval - although she won't be joining me.

Nearer the time, keen to hear where people are planning to stay, travel arrangements etc.

Anyone else thinking of going?

Pete

I'm hoping to go. It'll all come down to finances - so if the US$ would kindly collapse ...

No problem - just remind me nearer the time!

Any news on the venue etc? I have all dates agreed with 'she who must be obeyed' and I'm keen to get flights etc booked before she can change her mind! And while I've still got a job!

Its all on the website Pete,I'm about to take a deep breath and volunteer to organise the BHGS party so I'll take the opportunity to ask for names of those who are interested in coming out as part of the party rather than making there own arrangements,
Best to e-mail me direct d.jfairhurst@btopenworld.com

Rumour has it that the IWF will not fill hotels as quickly as Obama's inaugaration this month.

But will the security for JD & co be as restricting as for Mr B. ?

Looking more hopeful that I'll be able to go now - who else?

I have just had confirmation from the Long Haired Colonel that I am authorised to spank a yank...

nikgaukroger · Post by **nikgaukroger** » Wed Jan 21, 2009 1:20 pm

So how many yanks are lining up to be spanked?

pbrandon · Post by **pbrandon** » Wed Jan 21, 2009 1:20 pm

I'm going.

I find it amusing the last the the BHGS "invaded" the States they corrected a longstanding debt of spankings at New Orleans.... 190 years is an awful long time to hold a grudge...

Now that its in Washington... Me thinks its time for some payback for burning our capital!

I'll be there with a proper welcome. Perhaps, Nik, Terry and DaveM would like to relive a bit of history?
