It's been a pleasure but real life returns - thanks all
I'd just like to say it's been great wasting far too much time on this off topic board and letting various members get under my skin.
Thanks to Len Daddy for offering an opposite perspective to mine in most cases but in a calm and rational manner. Thanks to victor, stuartj and cam for offering something other than the US originated thoughts. Thanks to Matt Holcomb for presenting a kind of mirror image Fint (although without the cut and paste antics) Thanks to Shaun for trying to stay calm and rational but occasionaly slipping off the edge. Thanks to Mull for making me investigate the ignore features of this board (and for making Fint appear a moderate). Thanks to the random pics thread for making me laugh (and ogle) The upshot is that as of tomorrow I will be getting to wake up next to my fiancee every day for the first time in about 18 months (overseas relationships are not so great sometimes) and as such will undoubtably regain a more normal semblance of a life. While it's been a pleasure I'm sure I won't miss the OT board too much for a while  Have fun!

Ah, well, after a few months, you may need a break from the loved one - we'll see you again.

Bah! You'll be bored in about 12 hours. You'll be back.

Gavin, it's an honour to be mentioned amongst that distinguished list of esteemed gentlemen.
Farewell, and may the good Lord ward of those US originated thoughts...
