Christmas and New year have always been a magical time for us. Even though we end up being in 2 different countries for most of the Christmases, we always cherish the time. It has a special romantic significance too, I proposed to Jo shortly after new year in 2001 (and did it almost everyday until Jan 25th when she finally couldn’t take it any more 😛 ). We wish you a very pleasant Christmas and New Year 2010.

Forums:

I will not be participating much on the forums. I hope that is the same with our active members like Hui (thanks Hui, btw).  But I will be checking them once or twice everyday, so go ahead and ask a question if you are stuck. I will try to help you between a Christmas lunch and nap.

Online Store:

The store is open, all thru. Please make any purchases you wish to before Christmas to avail our Thanksgiving sale offers. If you have any problems please get in touch with me on my gmail (chandoo.d @ gmail.com) or phone (+45 5038 4743).

Email:

Please expect some delays if you email me. I will be snoring more than 8 hours a day during the next 2 weeks.

There you go. Now you know what you will miss if you are away. Don’t worry if you are on a big vacation. Just sign up for our RSS Feed or Email Newsletter and the content will be waiting for you when you get back.

Once again, we wish you all a very happy Christmas and New year. 🙂

    huh... you could proof read the post hundred times and still miss a silly mistake like this...

    Read "PHD between now and Jan 4th 2009." as "PHD between now and Jan 4th 2010."
