If I'm not too late to the party, I'm game to get in on this! Expect some beautiful pacific northwestern landscapes behind the big banana once it passes through my hands.

I've tacked you on the end of the US section (but before Canada?).
I'm hoping that people are paying attention to the order and will make (and announce) sensible adjustments to it to avoid 'nana spending more time in flight than is necessary.

Actually, I really should add myself to the list one day...

Shipping to Canada is no problem for me, so if you want to leave me last of the US, that's fine. I can actually quite comfortably drive up to and over the border, so who knows? Perhaps I shall have to drive the banana to Canada and ship it to Canada from a Canadian post office? Now that's thinking 4th Dimensionally. Or something.

Can you move me to the end of the UK (Lands End or John O Groats) list. It will be easier for me to ship to Europe for the final countdown

Good thinking!

That said, if we have Fishy send it to mainland Europe after its tour of The Americas (it'll cost the same as sending it to UK anyway), then send it on a tour of all the European Frost*ies before coming back to the UK - again, for each Euro-Frost*ie it'll cost no more to send it to another part of the EU as to the UK.

And it'll make the map a bit less chaotic!

Anyway. Where is it now?
Jim - have you sent it on to DWDunphy yet?
And are there any photos?

gr8gonzo · February 21, 2011, 01:12:10 PM

I was thinking similarly, Hippo. Since there are so many tour stops in the UK, it would be preferable to get all other stops out of the way first. That way, the banana is certain to be close by whenever the DVD shoot takes place.

Well done!
I was about to suggest that sending the banana* from France to Rome would make more sense...
Great minds think alike

(I hope that this saying has the same irony in english as in French!)

Where's the BA NA NA NA NA NA gone?

Jim's gone oddly silent since receiving it. We need to speed up the North American leg of the tour if it's to get to Jem in time for the DVD.

Jim Takacs · February 23, 2011, 09:31:02 PM

Ive Contacted the Next recipient! I apologize for the delay! Ordered Something and I just arrived! Taking pics tomorrow!

I can ship it out Fri. 02-25-11

gr8gonzo · February 23, 2011, 11:06:05 PM

He lives!! Glad to hear the tour will resume soon.

Jim Takacs · February 27, 2011, 06:05:21 PM

Still waiting on a Reply from DwDunphy as to the Location of is next destination.... :?

DwDunphy · February 27, 2011, 10:34:01 PM

Hi Jim, Hi all,

Unfortunately, I'm looking at unemployment right now and I can't host the Banana. I can barely host myself at the moment. Please move on to the next participant. I wish I could have been involved, but everything is looking quite awful and unbearable at the moment.
