So, what Have I been doing for the last year? I've been around. Around and about. I just took my mind off the hook for a bit. I reckoned that if the world wanted me badly enough it would call back. It did. I decided I was a lemon for a couple of weeks. I kept myself amused all that time jumping in and out of a gin and tonic. Well, I found a small lake that thought it was a gin and tonic, and jumped in and out of that. At least, I think it thought it was a gin and tonic. I may have been imagining it."

The above nonsense was taken directly from that wonderful trilogy (of five) The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. So I thought I'd give credit where credit was due and all that, but the point is that I have been doing something similar.

So what have I really been up to? I'm not telling. But since a picture is worth a thousand words and all that, I'll let them tell the story instead. That would save me a LOT of words as you are about to see.
