Hands across the ocean

We have been told on good authority that there might be some kind of minor celebration going on this weekend in the US of A. Apparently it's to celebrate independence from somewhere or other....never ones to pass up the opportunity of a celebration, we have decided to contribute to transatlantic understanding by taking the afternoon off to see Shrek 2 and so for us at least no news is good news. Check back next week for normal(ish) service. In the meantime on this holiday weekend - if you are going to drink and drive - do remember to take the car.
