21 December, 2005: Staff Coverage Over Christmas and New Year
The H2G2 Editors Started conversation Dec 21, 2005
As usual, the h2g2 offices will be closed over the festive period, from 23 December - 4 January. We'll still be able to monitor the site and help out where possible, but messages sent to any of our feedback addresses may not be answered until 4 January.
Moderation will continue as normal, but if you email us directly during this time we'll get back to you on our return.
We'd like to wish all of our Researchers a very Merry Christmas and we hope you have a spectacular 2006!

Hmmm.
Last year, you said that you will stuff yourselves stupid with mince pie and brandy, or some such decadent combination. 
Will you be doing similarly this year?

Who will take care of Elton? He can´t be allowed to be abandoned...
