Hello World!

Today is the start of a pretty unusual occassion - my first holiday away from the site in one and a half years. In a couple of minutes, I'll be heading to Limburg, in the south of the Netherlands, for four days of sun and swimming. Actually, considering the weather we have now it will probably be rain and indoor swimming, but at least it will be a real holiday.

I will be taking my cell phone and laptop with me to check email, but for the rest Amy will be running the sites during the weekend - I can only hope she won't turn the site into in PerthToday or the CricketCritic while I'm away :). Seriously, many thanks of course go out to Amy for fully taking over site duties for the weekend, and I'll actually be returning the favour next week, when she is away for the weekend.

Enjoy your weekend, everyone - I'll certainly be enjoying mine!
