Happy 4th everyone. Have a great time and safe weekend.

I'm filling up my Choice Vend tonight and taking the kids to buy fireworks. Setting up the tents in the back yard and pulling out the telescope.

To show that we "Brits" bear no bitterness or resentment

I'd just like to wish all my cousins on the other side of the pond a happy 4th July.

You may or may not be aware that we this side are also celebrating this week. Two hundred years since we whooped the arse off our dearest neighbours the French. Now that was a "real battle." The battle of Trafalgar and Lord Nelson.

Read an article in the paper today on virtual reality and how, had the battle of Trafalgar gone the other way we'd all be speaking French today. Even in the US. That Napoleon would have walked across the US taking great chunks of it into the French Empire. Those of you in the NE Chapter would have been okay, but that's about all. Funny how you can take a moment in time alter it just everso slightly and "hey presto" the World is a completely different place.

Not sure what this has to do with Soda, except that had it gone the way of the French who knows if Mr Pemberton in Atlanta would have made his discovery or even worse, he could have been forced to but a few cloves of Garlic into the reciepe. (That's French ain't it??)

Dave

PS... Enjoy your holidays ladies & Gents me the wife & Kids will have a mini celebration of our own with a few bottles of coke and a hamburger or two.

Plus we can not forget about our firends North of the Border who have their holiday today - Canada Day (I think that's what it is called), eh!

Leaving Sunday for Portland Oregon.  Coca Cola Collector's club 31'st national convention.  The week starts with fireworks just across the river, visible from the hotel party hall.
     Then a week of wheeling and dealing, displays, auctions and swap meet.  Soda related items ONLY. It's awesome.
      Anyone else here planning to attend ??
