    Thanks Rob. Blighty? I have not heard that term before this thread, is that slang?

    I should start an Aussie slang thread to teach you guys how to speak proper Inglish.

    Your favourite corner ?

    And woe betide any young whippersnapper that dares to set up his doo-Dahs in that corner !!

    Blimey cock you never 'erd of Blighty?

    You're having a Steffi Graf, gov. You need to get on your ham and eggs, go down the King's Road and start using your King Lears.

    Either that or don't live in London!

    Don't worry Wayne. In reality most people in London speak proper English.

    It'll be nice to have you. Just remember to bring the amber nectar.

That was 3 weeks ago and I will be free from the shitaclysm in a week.

    Offers have been streaming my way since and it looks like I may accept a position with a company in London. If this comes off, I would love to meet and greet the UK guys here. What are the planned LEM dates?

    Stay tuned, I will announce my future plans in a week or three.
    It's official. The next LEM dates are 4-5-6th April. Hope to see you there!
