It seems like Archie's road has come to a dead end. Can I make a call to declare Archie officially DEAD, and suggest that we start a successor? (That is anyway what they do persons MISSING after a while.) To all those who contributed to Archie's adventures, thank you very much. To those who havent... wel... :finger4u: :finger4u: :finger4u: (and thanks for spoiling our fun :? )

Hi Pine & Tony,

I think I have finally worked out how Archie managed to do so many brilliant trips, without loosing his Job or his family. :roll:

But in the interest of this fantastic thread, please explain to all the "Uninformed" forum members how it worked, and maybe we can resurrect Archie, like the phoenix, back to former glory.... :zhelp:

So one of you guys, please :puterwork: and make him fly again........... :drunks:

It would seem a Bugger, that some Buggers do not care a bugger about any other bugger getting a chance to see the little bugger for them selves, so seems as if we buggered, until bugger sends the little bugger to some other bugger,
Oh !! Bugger it,
we buggered.

Well Sorry Pine that you dont even want to Answer the Phone when I tried to call you for a while now to follow up on YOUR side of the STory as I did mail you all The Pics of Archie that was taken on the whole trip

As I do not have time to sit and Post All the Pics Pine has Offerd to do that for me and do a Photo Video of Archie

But it is much easier to Point a Finger to Some one else but Yes I do Take Responsibility for not Posting but Where is the Other side of the Story

I have Handed Archie over to Beetlefanatic more than a Year ago

So why could his other advetures not beeing updated in the mean while :finger4u: :finger4u: :finger4u: :finger4u: :finger4u:

I am NOT entering a debate about Archie, which was right from the beginning meant to be a light-hearted fun topic for all to share.

Yes, I have offered to assist you just to get the thing running - but to mailbomb me with 90Mb of pics wasn't the quite idea (I still haven't been able to open a single one of them to date). Anyway, on second thought - surrogate posting of Archie's adventures defies the purpose. No names were mentioned, but if the shoe fits...

I'm really glad to see Archie back on the road, thanks to all who contributed, Pine, Bugger, Beetlefanatic... If you read his diary, this little Beetle has really been places.

I wonder if Chris still follows his journey?
