True, but we also want to show people we're having fun so we might get new

Yeah, its always a balance. I usually write more 'formal' reports but I just 
felt like doing a more happy one this time and see what happens ;-)

Any things missing? I know I missed a part of Sunday and quite a few

though some of you didn't seem to like her much, shame on you!) so more 
'content' would be welcome!
