If you're surprised to see this, don't worry - I did it early (a couple of days early). It's already been far too long since I've had a decent amount of time on h2g2.

Anyway, welcome to the world of h2g2. If you have any problems, just shout at someone. Alternatively, you could try just asking nicely... one of the two usually works!

Well, I'd better be off - the staff at the library are watching me (and they might be watching you too... smiley - bigeyes)
