On Mon, 20 Nov 2006, Andy Lawson, gave forth these words of wisdom:
I doubt I can make it next year because we're taking a (probably one off)
mega holiday and so nearly all my vacation time will be used up then. I'll
see closer to the time.
Ooooh! Us lesser mortals have holidays but you IT guys have "vacation
time".
I'll be talking Howard about you if you don't get a life! :-)

Ah b*gger it. That's working with my American colleagues for you. They get
confused when we say "holidays" as that means 'Thanksgiving' or Christmas'
as far as they're concerned.
