Dear fellow SYM:ers, I , Silur and Dottie will be away on winter holiday to Morocco, Western Sahara and (hopefully) Mauretania. We will leave tomorrow afternoon GMT, and I will be back the 10th of January if I don't get stuck in a sand dune, we hit a landmine or I forget my air ticket somewhere on a cliff in the Haute Atlas. Silur and Dottie will be back around the 13th-14th of January, depending on their mood and the status of our jeep 
I will try to check back here before I leave tomorrow. Right now I am still at the lab (yes, it's 2am here) and I'll be leaving directly from work tomorrow about 4 pm.
Have a nice christmas and a happy new year all of you, and don't get fat, dull-minded and computer-game dependent while we are away!

CE, regards to Dottie, and may both of you enjoy your stint doing Lawrence of Arabia. Bring us all back something!

@GFreeman: Morocco is a very beautiful country  I've been there twice before, here are some teasing pictures I shot last time we were there, which were about 3-4 years ago.
I will try to take some nice new photos this time!

Hopefully I can find that elusive ring of yours while Anders is still here in Thailand.

I'm sorry but this just reminds me of the episode of sopranos where tony's mistress gloria comes back from morocco and brings him a gift, only to throw it out the window of the "stugots" into the water. anyone...anyone?
