    Great!

    It hardly ever rains here in the Springs, and sitting in a cafe with my capuccino and cornetto, watching the Italian wage slaves getting wet would be a real tonic.

    Thanks for the thought!

    How's Geneva at Christmas?

    We are on the threshold here, we tend to have northern European winters and southern European summers. So Christmas is likely to be much like England - at around 400m we rarely get much snow: the dramatic exceptions occur in Feb - like full metre in one weekend! The only consolation is that when it's foggy, a 15 minute drive into the mountains gets you up into the sun.

    We should have a major system go live on Jan 1st - so I'll be in the fog, both literally and figuratively.

    That's great timing -- i love it when that happens. Always best to implement these things when everyone's still got a hangover.

    In this case al-Gol might be the best choice.
