Seasonal things

Well, I've been absolutely terrible in updating my presence on here. I will admit to its being down to simple inability on my part to get around to it, despite having so much to say on everything from Obama's triumph in the States to the completion of the LHC in Switzerland (some relatives have a house on top of it). I've got out to a few more places and am laying plans for a few more ('til I die), but for the moment there's nothing more to put there than all season's greetings and best wishes for 2009.
