Fled's not the only one. Amy and yourself have had more than a few 'interesting' times as well, and I'm sure there are others.

I agree though. Time for good things to happen to good people.

That's a nice way to start the year.

Commiserations to Flederman (and yourself too.) I've been through the being made redundant thing in Canada myself and it's an awful feeling. Cliches crossed that something comes along soon.

This mix is getting to be quite a crowd. I suggest gin and limoncello on ice all round. Cheers
