The festive season is nearly upon us... so once again Santa has graced us with his presence at h2g2! If YOU have a special request to make, why not visit him in Santa's Grotto.

The whole editorial team have clubbed together to bring you, the lowly researcher, a special greeting. If you haven't yet seen this card, pop along to read the Christmas Greeting from h2g2.

Go along and see an impressively large list of fellow researchers, and then add your signature to the h2g2 Christmas Card.

For extra fun and games to keep you amused over the holiday period why not visit The Jester's Condescending Joke Directory. It is well worth the effort!

For those of you who may have missed the information about the recent events in London, we are pleased to leave you the links to have fun with over the coming couple of weeks. Don't forget to try your hand at the Caption Competition!

There are plenty of Meets for h2g2 researchers in the pipeline. One well worth further mention is the Denver Meet (see link below) which has now been finalised for January 7th at the Mercury Cafe starting at the obscure time of 4.20pm... ok, maybe that shouldn't really surprise me! You can find information about this and most of the other planned meets at the Future Events forum, but here are a selection for you to consider:

• Denver Get Together.

• Scandinavian Meet Up.

If you have an interest in things celestial, then the h2g2 Astronomy Society is just the place to go!
Why not drop in and browse around.

Want to send someone on h2g2 a Christmas card? How about a declaration of love, anonymous or otherwise? If so, why not visit the Hermes Messanger Service. All requests will be considered and forwarded to user pages within h2g2.

The 'Musehome' is pleased to announce that they are holding a prolonged dinner celebration at The Christmuse Dinner page. All researchers are most welcome to drop along and imbibe!

There are, lurking around the nooks and crannies of h2g2, many quiet researchers, many boring researchers, many not very exciting or industrious researchers. A few have begun to congregate at The BOF Inn. They will not notice the intrusion should you wish to join them. The premises are rather seedy, more than a little down-at-heel and the patrons, when not stuck in mud, are liable to be grumbling quietly in the corner. Some, indeed, may be comfortably dead. The BOF Inn is 'under construction' just now, a situation that is unlikely change in the immediate future as 'galvanised into action' is most definitely not a phrase BOFs are comfortable with.

So, if you are lively, vibrant, full of life etc. DON'T GO THERE! But if you are none of those things, well, why not potter along. We will try (not very hard) to welcome you.

Pheroneous
