Yeah, well at least now we've both had our share of frustration at the CIO bureaucracy I suppose! Will be nice to go out for a drink anyway Oh and as for your comment about Skype, it is awesome, but there are other options; my mother actually pays £2 a month for unlimited international calls with Talk Talk, which is pretty good if she needs to call my cell phone for whatever reason.queencougar said:Thanks for the thoughts, CanadaJimmy. Enjoy the beer with Neil at the weekend - Neil can toast your PER, at least. The fancy bar is going to have to wait for ours until next week but at least the fizz will be nice and cold by then ;D
