This is just a heads-up to let you all know that I’m heading off on vacation next week, for about five weeks. I’ll still be poking my head in here, but probably not much more.
I trust y’all are going to be on your best behavior in my absence, and make life easy for Mark…
Well deserved, enjoy!
At first it struck me as a strange phrase for a vacation.
But then I realized that you’re from down-under, the (former) penal colony. LOL
Have fun! Wanna share what you’ll be doing for 5 weeks?
I’m visiting the Nordic countries – mainly Helsinki, Oslo, Bergen and Stockholm.
Sounds cool!
