Well, it has only taken 7 months to get the last document I need; I recieved a faxed copy yesterday, the original will be here on Tuesday or Wednesday. Then it's off to Montana to pick-up my Lammy :D. If I'm dreaming...let me sleep a little longer, so I may enjoy the moment. My thanks to all who helped. John, you win. As promised, I will buy you lunch (though sadly not at Luzzara'a, as it has closed) at Da Cappo maybe?

The idea behind the "100 Mile Diet" is starting to look like a valid idea when thinking of buying a vintage scooter. (It's too bad our growing, and scooting season is so short here) :cry:

Audrey, I know you speak from experience as well. :shock: Is there any movement on your U.S. piece of the puzzle?

I woke-up this morning in southern Alberta (Taber), looked out to the driveway and it was still there :D I crossed the Montana border Friday afternoon with my Lambretta, after 7 long months it's finally comming home. The entire trip down to the states and back was very enjoyable (Ok I was grinning from ear to ear). With my Lambretta in tow, I stopped for gas at a small town in Montana. A couple of local guys driving a big monster truck stopped to ask about my lammy, I could tell they really liked it, and one of them said it "looked bad ass" 8). I love Montana :D

Not too bad, I think he took pitty on me though, as he knew it was out of my control, and within 10 minutes of the paper work arriving by FedEx I was on the road to Montana; I'm not kidding. I also promised him I would buy something from his store when picking up my scoot.
