    Spoke to my folks this morning. All clear at the moment...

    We've got freezing rain forecast for tomorrow and then a big storm heading East. Meant to get here after I leave. Fingers crossed!
    Am driving to Indy tomorrow night, stopping over there the night then up to Chicago ready for the evening flight. NO MORE SNOW!!

    Safe journey Neil :)

  • Morning all, currency on the way down again this morning, good for Neil but not travellers stateside.

    I haven't contributed as often this year on the thread but it's good to see the regular names still around and I would like to wish all contributors to the thread a merry christmas and a magic new year, don't eat and drink too much ;)

  • Blimey. Didn't half drop when I went back to blighty. Going up now I'm back in the US!

    I'll take all the credit if you don't mind :)

    Happy New Year to all! Looking forward to 2011. There's a baby Bond on the way :):):):)
  • Congrats and happy New Year Mr Bond :)
  • Congratulations Neil and happy new year to all that post on this thread :)
    If you think nobody cares whether you're alive or dead, try missing a couple of mortgage payments.:whistle:

    My way is Atkins;)
