Ok - so everyone is out doing their Xmas Shopping - I should I suppose.
As this forum will inevitably slow down until New Year, I just need to know how many people will be in over the next week, so I can plan drinks etc.
I will be in till about Christmas Eve, then away to about New Year's Eve..a week's absence - even got a note from my Mum to excuse me, if you need to see it
anyone else?

I will be picking up stuff as usual over Christmas, until the 29th. Then I am flying to Melbourne and will start picking up stuff in the New Year form Oz.
Sorry if I sound smug but I am delighted
