Come on Slow-coach! :D

If we drop it off, we would need to pick it up, and it takes two weeks for that process apparently, so no.

Re: The 2011 FSW timeline club

Re: The 2011 FSW timeline club

Thanks Al.

To be honest, it doesn't feel that long a wait. A few months under two years since we started thinking seriously about it.

Re: The 2011 FSW timeline club
