Christmas postings
See today's postings below, as usual.
As from today, Friday 16th, I am all over the place until after Christmas, so apologies in advance if things become very intermittent for the next two weeks - I'm not sure what sort of Internet connections will be available. I'll be home in London some days, so there will certainly be updates. Things will be back to normal after the 29th December.
To those of you who are also celebrating the silly season, I wish you an early Happy Christmas - do have a great time.
All the best
