Part Twelve - Postscript - a new world record


A weakened man
Originally uploaded by yoooreds.
The final day:
After 9 or 10 days of absolute magic!, somehow we manage to leave the luxury of the Hilton Milenium hotel, and head for the shops...this was done with huge hangovers and resembled something crossed between dawn of the dead and dawn of man, as we gradually recovered with each jean/pant/gadget shop.

If we thought the tour climax had been and gone...we were wrong.... it was yet to be delivered.... after a whole day and night of "encouragement" from friends n family, it was to be in the form of "Reight! am gunna do it",
Barnes mooed!....A quick cab uptown, 5th and 57th... I believe, to those in the know....that is the address of 'Tiffany's", not the 80's pop star but the jeweller's...
Two minutes later we were back in a cab, with a world record under our belts, The quickest sale Tiffany's have ever made...one shiny beautiful engagement ring, one triumphant Barnes, and one soon to be presumably very pleased Nikki!

A fitting end to a quality tour
Congratulations!
