Congrats Tom and Nessy.  Tom that must have been some flight, getting to Kazakhstan can't have been easy.  Looking forward to a TR.

Thanks for wishing us well, folks.

Yes, WC, the flight was quite an endurance contest. If not for Mark and Herrie's company, the twelve-hour layover at Schiphol would have been a killer. My return trip begins at 7 a.m. tomorrow and I am dreading it. Of course, there isn't much for me to look forward to when I arrive in Connecticut.

You can keep yourself occupied by posting pictures, telling us about Kazakhstan, and planning your next trip  ;D :popcorn:

Tom is an example to some of you folks; he was on a plane pretty sharpish where others would still be thinking about it.  :nod:

So true, it usually pays off to get that plane ticket bought as soon as you know that possibly THE one is there and waiting and worth flying out to see.  :)

Um  :scared0005: I think the two lovebirds might be a little too modest and uncomfortable being the subject of a thread titled "Forum Romance," and to have the thread posted in the "Forum Announcements" section of RUA (  :chuckle: )

If they gave a pre-okay, I stand corrected.

I think one of them might like a point of reference to demonstrate he was IMBRA exempt by the method of introduction?

Added to which, I think it is a pretty cool announcement!

It certainly is unique, that makes two publicly 'known' couples who post here and who met on forums of this subject matter. I wish them all the best, and lots of happiness and success in the future
