Celebrating a 2000th post in NYC (where else..)

Granted, this trip stateside was not organised for the sole purpose of acknowledging my almost obsessive contributions to V-Flyer, but it did tie in rather nicely.

The flight out was awesome, in a word, with a fantastic and attentive crew y) y) What more could one want, and indeed what more could be said. Top marks to the crew of the VS3!! It truly is a shame that you only get 17 hours in this city before manning a flight back across to that green and pleasant land I know to be home, however someone does have to do it ):

I, on the other hand, have 5 days here and as I sit in my favourite midtown pub on this crisp Thursday eve I raise a pint of Sam Adams to my fellow V-Flyers ... I hope that my 2000 posts to date have been of value, and here is to the next 2000.

8D 8D Cheers 8D 8D

Well done ^) ^) ^) ^) ^) ^) and I look forward to the next 2000 posts!

Many congratulations on your awesome milestone. Glad the flight lived up to expectations. Have a fantastic time. Really envious. Would love to be in NYC. Only place I can enjoy a festive egg nog ..... y) y)

Have a great time joey , good to hear the flight was top notch .
So wish I was there !!!!
Sale on now so time to book for jan/ Feb I think

Congratulations Joey - I hope you are sampling the beer in one of my favourite Midtown haunts; the Ginger Man on 36th and 5th or Rattle n Hum on 33rd and 5th. They both have an amazing selection and very knowledgeable bar staff.

Enjoy NYC

Cheers

Haha, glad to hear you had a great flight y)

I hope you have a great time in one of my favourite Cities and look forward to a few glasses of Bourbon in the not too distant future (maybe Las Vegas in March ): )

Safe travels Buddy.

Cheers for the recommendations Martin, have been to Rattle n Hum before but not the Ginger Man - will drop by there tomorrow afternoon Was in the Old Castle over on w54th and 7th. Good Irish pub and great food y) they were trialling a new Sam Adams bitter yesterday too, so I got a bit merry on freebies as well as my usual lager supplement

... look forward to a few glasses of Bourbon in the not too distant future (maybe Las Vegas in March ): )

Maybe so Dom if I do not get out there beforehand. ):

Have the most fun possible, and I second David's recommendation of The Ginger Man. Liked Rattle and Hum too, not least because when we asked meekly whether there was possibly just a smidgen of a chance that they were doing food at 11pm they looked at us as if we were slightly mad and answered 'why wouldn't we?'

Dead jealous....feeling the Christmas spirit from here ^) ^) Continue the great work and raise a draft Yeungling in my honour...oh come on I'm raising a Blue Moon in yours y)
Merry Christmas Joey oo)

That I did Paul, The Ginger Man was very busy but managed to squeeze in a few... a sound service although the bar itself was nothing to write home about.. poss because there were so many people in there

Still prefer the Old Castle 8D

Merry Christmas to you too Mark, raised a fair few drinks to v-flyers, Yeungling Black & Tan amongst them... odd taste, still prefer one mixed with a Guinness

Looks like I'll be back in NYC at the end of Jan - keep the bar recommendations coming people ):
