16 hours and counting for us younglady! I guess it will be pretty much radio silence from then on. Although I'll try to keep an eye on the progress of the other locals, I don't want to get too envyous from falling too far behind on everybody else.

So, good luck just the same, and for those friends only book fragments, I'd doubt if I would really have the time to read them, but if it's not too much trouble, then please count me in.

Ok, so I'm a bit worried about you, seeing how you did all this preparation and I wouldn't like to see you fail this time. It's my third time attempt to write a book and you know what they say about third times, I'll be trying to pull myself forward knowing that less than 100 miles away, someone is probably suffering just the same.

Which means I'll come and poke you if I see you're getting stuck somewhere.

Godspeed partner !
