We've actually had a high number of UK tourists and have heard on the news that people from the UK (and Europe in general) are flying over to shop in NYC this Xmas season... the high end gifts aren't so "high end" right now with the weak dollar!
At least SOME good has come of this weak dollar trend...
Hi Rocky,
My apologies for not coming back to you immediately - life has been rather full, both before and during the Christmas period! I too would LOVE to meet with you and Kelly, but I cannot see myself getting to your side of the pond until the end of next year, and even then I will be in California. I'll have to look into the possibility of a stop-over in Philadelphia en-route to LA-LAX!!! And, hey! Whaddaya mean: " ....should you choose NOT to..."?!! I would NEVER choose NOT to visit you or any of my pals over there - it is only circumstances that could ever dictate that I do not visit!
Now, Rocky, what you are suggesting (or what I suspect you are suggesting) here is not, I think, for public discussion, and so I will be sending you an E-mail in a few days, or I MIGHT just call you next week!
Very many thanks, and
Take care,
Ham.
