Hi Fay,

Well I'm afraid I have, as have all the family over the past week, but being a man, it's seems to hit me a lot harder and severe, but women won't listen and just go on about the pain of childbirth and things, but until women around the world actually contract this vicious infection they call 'MAN FLU' they will not know the pain that we go through.  ;)

Hopefully, I should be over this by March 09.

Merry Christmas everyone.  :D

Tony G

Probably too windy for the C11 but I might be able to do some visual stuff for all the relatives who are around tonight ...

Oh dear, had my plan worked out for today, which included going out the back, telescopes are up & someone has rung and invited us around!!!!

Don't want to go, but should I be festive or not, even if I will be bored witless?

Tell them to come to yours, then you can still go out and do your astro stuff and pop in now and then to be social.

Yes, I liked the cunning of Mark, pretending his slipping out the back was for the good of his guests!

I assume you are looking a lot like a newt, Mike!!!

I don't really look like one but I certainly feel like one.

oh I don't know Mike. The more I drink the more you look like a newt.
