Apologies for my big delay. I am on a planned holiday, I wasn't telling anyone as I had hoped to be able to have access to internet and so on. Well it wasn't so easy, I am in Thailand in a very beautifull resort, beach, rocks and stuff - but having to assist in the baby care and the ease of access to the internet, plus the general unwillingness to stop bathing in the sea and other wordly pleaseures caused me not to connect to the internets.
I will send my turn in now and reply to diplomacy bit later or after holiday. My holiday is until to 30th of Jan.
Well Monte, just to up the stakes a Tad [:)] I actually did an 8 min turnround a few turns ago, unfortunately I forgot to attach the files when sending in so felt I couldn't claim that one.
Just missing the vacationing Austrians turn! Perhaps we can hope that all of that sun and beach side Mai Tai's drinks will cloud his strategic judgement![8D]
Austrian turn sent. I hoped to do it immediately upon receiving the turn, but my battery went flat and I had to get an adapter and fiddle around with stuff. I have only small windows of opportunity to get to the bussiness centre - baby asleep, lady has had enough adventure on the island and so on. If you guys manage to post the turn today I am likely to respond to it in the evening/ or next morning.
