But of course you can !
I've always secretly wanted to be a waiter. So glamourous wouldn't you agree?
Everything ok for you sir?
More bread and olives ? why certainly sir.
Can I get you any rudder pedals with that sir?
My my. Isn't sir quite the hungry fellow.
Man.... what a slob.....

BTW I notice the EF2000 on the box art. Perhaps the F35 would have been more appropriate..

hahahah !!
did you get this too?
"Hi Guys,
With the help of Gunfighter owner 'tecman69', VKB HQ was able to identify a potential issue that could affect the Gunfighter's x-axis dry clutch damper; the screws that hold down the dust cover are 2mm too long and could add unwanted friction.
To resolve this, please go ahead and loosen the two forward screws of the Gunfighter's dust cover by 1-2 full turns (see image above). This should take care of it!"
Open box..... get hacksaw.... enjoy !
hahaha!

Château ?
oh how ghastley.
oh the very thought!
wading through acres of chateaubriand just to get to the vineyard? No Sir.. not I !
And that is why I live in a sensible smallish sized semi-detached house in the less well-off part of the very outskirts of Olde Brighton (and Hove) Town.
It's a life choice ok.

You guys are so squished up over there. Can't one post office handle all the orders? A postman might have to trade in his push bike for a row boat to reach the Island, but that shouldn't result in postal delays should it?
Perhaps you could request a drone delivery?
Eek...
First Gunfighter in the UK. And it's Mine all Mine.
We havent met yet as it is negotiating with Customs at Heathrow !
my guess is it will get to Gatwick tomorrow and arrive on Wednesday as predicted.

Well I'm sure its not the first one in the US but it finally arrived! Box was much smaller than I expected it to be and worried me until I got it open lol. All looks good tho it even came with what I assume(hope) is a drink coaster (well I've been setting my beers on it) and this BITCHIN new hat! IMG_20170509_140307_175.jpg Now please ... please when you start seeing me online (which will be soon I promise) try to picture me wearing this as you shoot me down
** I kinda look like a shriner in mourning .... they have funeral fez's?
WHOAAAA !!!!!
That hat ROCKS !!
I've pretty much lost interest in the stick.
Do a hat review!
Have you noticed loads (more) ladies checking you (and your hat) out?
Presumably it is equally at home in a formal setting (theatre / fine dining establishment) as in more relaxed environs, maybe a Vanilla Ice gig or similar informal musical gathering.
can you test it for us?
Here hoping....
EDIT
Post photos.

I assume these "hats" provide some hierarchy between desktoppers and long stickers at VKB fanboy meets.
You do have meets don't you? Us Sidewinder owners (Sidies as we like to be known) are famous for our annual conference/hootenanny in the dogging area just at the back of Tibshelf services on the M1.
Last year we had Colin Shufflebottom as guest speaker. Never heard of him? No, neither had I.

As yet us Gunnies havent organaised any events. Though being first in the UK I suppose that make me Grandmaster Gunnie of Albion.
Yet another plaque to put on the mantlepiece next to my signed David Michael Knight Hasselhoff Lp's
Not sure a Sidey convention is for me to be honest.
I'm really not at all that keen on the M1.
Tell me.... Do you have ceremonial hats?

No - that's just silly.
Lew comes and lays out the "Alter of Feedback" (I think you may have seen it in his posts) and we make a sacrifice of a Ginsters Breakfast bar to the great god "SPRING EFFECT".
Its all very sopfi....sofist....grown up.
