I'm not sure if I want to do this, but I know if I don't say anything I'll regret opportunities missed.

Though normally a resident of Australia, I will be visiting the north-east of the US in two months time. Specifically, I fly into New York on the 25th June, will be visiting with quite a few friends from another forum on the 30th in Camden, New Jersey, and will be flying out from Chicago on the 6th. I intend to spend several days in and around NY, and at least one in Philly, D.C., Pittsburgh and Chicago.

I intend to be kilted at least part of the time - not the least of which because of the stir I will create on the 30th. However, whilst I haven't been part of this community long enough to have learnt many names, let alone made many friendships, I'd be happy to have a drink or a coffee (depending on the hour) with some fellow X-Markers - if for no other reason than to get a bit of a resident's view of the place as well as a tourist's view.

Anyone up for that? I'd be a lone tourist, BTW, as I'm separated.

Wade.
