So after four days without internet and I come back to find the SOTD has a new steward (well deserved I might add) and 9 pages of great pictures to look through. Instead of the mother of all multiquotes I'll just say this: Well done everyone!


While my internet was down I wasn't too fussed with taking pictures although I did take two.
