Thanks :)

We are off to Whistler on Saturday for a 10 day ski trip. Once we arrive at the resort normal service should resume, but it's a long trip so a break in service is likely for a day or two

Cheers have fun. Where in the world is whistler?

In reply to GM (msg # 17):

I believe in British Columbia, in Canada.

It is indeed, a couple of hours into the Rockies north of Vancouver

Nice.  Whistler is a huge mountain.
I was in Hokkaido skiing/snowboarding for a week while I was away.  Interestingly, I hear it's roughly the same travel time to get to Hokkaido from Australia as it is from Scandavia, so more Finns etc are making their way to Niseko.

Sorry, should have posted this last weekend, but was on holiday this past week. Was at home so had planned to do some posting but had a very busy week with family stuff. Normal service resumes tomorrow.

We went to Canada for 3 weeks last summer and stay with my wife's uncle for most of that. To return the favour (slightly) her uncle, cousin, and uncle's sister are coming over here, and they'll be spending Friday-Monday with us.

IOW, doubt I'll be around to post until Tuesday.

Updated "Aways":

May 15th to May 21st inclusive
Week commencing June 8th (and the weekend before)
Fortnight commencing July 6th (and the weekend before)

I shall be away for most of July.

I'll be away 26-29 June 2015.

I'll be away from July 4-22, swapping 'Sunny' Scotland for the Sunshine State!

I'll be away July 7th till potentially as little a july 9th, but also potentially as much as mid august depending on how well things go.

Queensland or Florida?

Heh, Florida! Off on the Disney adventure, even though I think my body is getting too old for all those rides.

My sister just came back from there with her kids. Gorgeous weather. Rather jealous.

Off to Deepest Darkest Pembrokeshire for a week of camping this Saturday (18th July). There will be no computers and mobile phone access is very patchy so expect nothing.

Off for another week of camping tomorrow. This time though it's on the South coast with good phone coverage and even site WiFi and an electric hookup... oh the luxuries of modern camping :)

Not away but for the next week my posting rate might vary. It's that time of year again... World Air guitar championships and i have folk visting until mid next week.

Almost certainly absent Tue 25th and Wed 26th Aug: being sent out and about with work.

Extremely busy at the moment.  May not be able to post until Friday 4 September.

Busy playing MGSV, posting rate is probably going to suffer, because Metal Gear Solid.

I'll be away:
30 October 2015 to 7 November 2015
11 to 22 December 2015

In time-honoured tradition, I'll miss the big battle! :(

Wife and I are heading down to London tomorrow morning to be wined & dined on the Silver Sturgeon (you can google it), before being taken to a VIP screening of the new Bond film! We'll then spend Friday doing our own thing before returning home for Saturday evening (best part of 3 days without the kids, yay!).

So apologies, but I can't really complain! :)

Away week commencing November 23rd (with weekends, that's away from November 21st to Nov 31st). If I'm not already dead IC, that is.
