Happy birthday Clint!

Paolo and Valentina ever so very kindly provided their company, wonderful cakes and Ferrari "spoon monkey" (Heidy's version of Spumanti) to celebrate Clint's birthday at the stroke of midnight. Sytse made a most eloquent reply to Clint's acceptance and I'm very sure a great time was had by all (despite the untimely World Cup demise of the All Blacks).

We were all treated to Dany's photos-with-music tribute to our time abroad, a fantastic effort of which everyone has requested a copy. Perhaps we will see something similar from this weekend?

Best wishes for a speedy recovery from the inevitable hangover go to Russ and Javier who disappeared (separately!) at some point mid-sentence during the evening. Bless.

Apologies to those who retired before Heidy's roaring log fire. And thanks to all for making the whole of Saturday a truly memorable one. I'm happy to have spent my weekend with such a nice bunch of good friends.

One last thought goes to those who couldn't make it to Tuscany. You were sorely missed and mercilessly talked about. ;-) Hopefully we will see some of you next time.
