thanks for the advice. Boston it is then which is really cool cos i've never been to boston and would love to go. might have to spend a day or so there before the conference

conference is from 25 - 29th July... yes i know i'm getting organised early but i want to use frequent flyer points to get there, so i'll have to book soon.

Am very excited cos it will be your summer and i'll be leaving our winter behind for a couple of weeks. that's just all good.
