I imagine what happened was that he was curious about who he was going to be driving, and found the Ayu-Angel forum via Google or something, and started posting about what'd happen from there.

If I remember well, that's what exactly happened. It was the first French website he found about Ayu. He just wanted to let the fans know, to not miss this opportunity...

He said that Ayu booked with a London limo company now. So she must be heading to London.
How did you manage to track him down? Did you asked Ayuangel's webmistress or something like that? I'm just being curious

I've been searching everywhere, contacting every company, like a mad woman lol. I contacted the Japanese embassy in London to ask if they were expecting Ayu to come (they said they hadn't heard, but that she wouldn't necessarily tell them if she was coming). I contacted JAL asking them for info about Ayu's flight, but they had a confidentiality rule. I searched for the alias of the French limo driver that ayu-angel mentioned, as well as the word "limo driver", and found a member of a French forum related to cars in which there was a member with the same username as the guy's alias, and on his profile it said that his occupation was limo driver and his country was France. I joined the forum, but didn't speak any French, so I used a weird Google translator thing to compose a message for him. It turned out that he was the guy I was looking for. He replied in English and was very nice and kind. When I said sorry for taking up his time with this matter, he said: "Don't worry! I only wish I could be of more help to Ayu's fans!"

I'm currently in the process of contacting Limo companies in London asking if they know anything lol. It's a long shot, but I'm a crazed fan.

LOL WOAW!

You've got a lot of drive and motivation! Go go to find Ayu!! *cheers on*

I highly doubt any limo company will give out informations.

Like someone else said in the other thread (truehappiness I think?): it sounds more like that limo driver from France was fired for giving out Ayu's where-abouts and information. I'm sure it's all in their contracts to be confidential when they drive celebrities around...

@Stuff

Haha that's a crazy story
This guy is really kind to let people informed about Ayu's trip to Europe because he is not a fan (or was not?) haha.
