Looks like an incred trip, but we have a more pressing issue of 'Curt' Cobain.

I thought "Curt" was rather apt, kind even. What a tosser.

Duff McCagan, on the other hand, is the nuts, living ledge.

Flying out of Las Vegas to take 3.5hrs train journey and visit passenger jet museum? Bet Gill is giddy. Know I would be.

She's more excited than I am.

But don't worry, when we are in Vegas we pop up to McCarron most days, there is a cracking viewing area right by the runway.

Pretty good viewing area too, much better than the ones we normally frequent at Heathrow & Gatters.

Whilst playing in Binions yesterday, a fella wandered past the table who made me gasp. I mean, he was THE tallest bloke I have ever seen in my life.

A few heads turned, & several players commented upon Mr Tall, & it turned out he was well-known for his tallness.

His name is George Bell, & he suffers from something called gigantism.

Here's his wiki page;


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Bell_(basketball)

If you cba to read that, the cliffs are he is 7 foot 8 inches tall.

He used to be the tallest bloke in the USA, but he's been relegated to 2nd tallest now, as he is over 60, & old people shrink.

Here's George.
