I just read your comment on Ben's profile on solar power. When I get back from Costa Rica on July 9th, I'm going to an intensive solar energy conference in Lafayette, PA. We'll be doing course work, hands-on experience in places that use solar power, field trips, and see exibits. Be sure to keep in touch with me and I'll be happy to spread any knowledge I attain!

Thanks,
Angela

So...where is the best place to be for New Year? I have tried many; Portugal, Sri Lanka, Egypt, Amsterdam - and this year - ITV! Having done a lot in the last 12 months, finances depicted all the festivities at home, in the UK, for the first time in many years.
