Then we definitely need to arrange something! I'm really looking forward to hols this year. I got permission from Seamus to take over the Roost for the 24th, 25th, and 26th - I had in mind that all of us who don't have family or won't be with them, whatever our friendships or allegiences, could spend Christmas together so we wouldn't have to be alone. You're welcome to come one of those days too.
