I am leaving .
I have been holding the French flag for long enough now ...
It 's time for another French Man to take over .
I wish I could have done more for this wonderfull Sim and for the People who ' s playing it ... :oops:
To all the eSim staff , I thank you very much for the good time I had with you all , that will not be forgoten :wink:
Keep up the good work , I 'm sure you will 8)
To my old Friends of SB , one thing to say :
Thank you :P
There is just too many names I can think of , but be sure that nobody is missing . :wink: You gave me the will and the desire to to be your Friend and to give you back the respect you gave me in the first place .
The Steel Beasts People gave me more than any Internet place I have been involved with . I am not kidding .
Thank you .
Now , I am off , back to "homeplate" as they say in the AirForce .
I 'll stay in touch :wink:
Stay sharp and work that bloody FCS until it 's second nature .
Only the best are firing from the hip :wink:
Work closely with your CO , read his mind , improvise along his plan and do not hesitate to commit yourself . Heroes are daring :twisted:
I love you all :cvcsalute: :3starsk2:

Hey Fred,
Thanks for all your time and efforts in our community. Got to say, would be, and will be, somewhat boring without your presence around, but I understand the need to go out on patrol for awhile.. I'm there now.. lol
BTW, if you're ever in Southern California, let me know.. The door and welcome mat will always be open and there for ya.
I will keep your legend and record of first one to post 5000 + in these forums alive.. lol
But remember, I was the "First General" in these forums, with over 500 or 1000 post, I forget.. lol
My best to ya always, and do keep us advised from time to time.
May the wind be at your back always,
LS :3starSK:

NEpi , you are most probably correct . As usual :wink:
But don 't kid yourself , a lot of the SB Players expect me to come back one day or another ...
For cry out loud , I might be a 43 years old bastard , but when it comes to firing a 120mm , I 'm right up there !
And there is no way I can give up totally ... :roll:
Cheers . :3starSK:

I am now back in my hometown (Dijon) where I will stay up to the end of November .
As soon as I find a little flat to rent , I will get myself a new PC with a large broadband , and will re-install SB ProPE .
I am actually using a friends laptop ...
I bought myself a bike to move around (I 'll post a pic of it soon) .
Since I arrived , many of my old French friends keep inviting me and I am having a GREAAAT time ! It seems that they want to know if my "reputation" of a beer drinker is still valid , lolol !
3 hangovers in less than a week !!! God , they are treating me !
I hope everybody is well and sharp .
See you all later Tankers ...
Cheers .

Where are you leaving without internet ?!
Sad of this news... Froggy and myself will take care of the Flag during your leave. ;)
I just moved out of Dijon, now in Is sur Tille (you must know... just outside of your Suzon Valley map). ;)
Hope we'll meet soon !
Bluewings

Sure I know Is sur Tille , I lived there 2 years !
Btw BipBip, I just found a job and a place to live , at the Camping de l 'Arquebuse , Auxonne . I was looking to rent a big caravan or a mobilehome when the bloke who runs the camping told me that his Chef just left , leaving him in the shit ... He had to ask his wife to run the kitchen the time to find a new Chef . When I told him that I was a Chef , he proposed me a pretty good deal :
-Accomodation free of charge + a decent salary up to the end of September .
I should start this monday ! :)
So , you and I we might meet each other sooner rather than later , hehe ...
Just give me your adress in Is/Tille and I 'll give you a visit .
Just keep the 'Pastis' ready BipBip ! :)
Cheers .

Le Monde est petit !
I well know the city of Auxonne, my wife had an uncle who leaved in a small village (Champagney) near this town !
I'm still waiting for SB Pro PE (ordered a week ago).
We'll be able to make a french team within some weeks !
A bientôt les gars !

Here is my new little bike :

It 's a HYOSUNG 125cc with a 4 stroke engine , good enough to drive me around . It runs like a song :)
I didn 't want a Harley 'cause I 'm not gonna stay long in France and it would have been a waste of money ...
Cheers .
