Thinking about it you're probably right. I'm making a start on the job
tomorrow evening. Can't do it this p.m. due to 6 Nations and tomorrow
afternoon there's a rather important match between Chelsea and some
obscure team from North London :-) (In case you haven't guessed I'm a
Chelsea supporter)
Of course when we win I'll be in no fit state to do anything remotely
techy so Monday evening then.
