I was going to settle in for a big update but Alastair and Azaria are apparently coming over now, instead of in an hour or two. Ellie should be over at some point as well, and the rest of the guys will be over around 8pm I guess. We're not doing anything big, just hanging out and drinking and going out to enjoy the festivities later. I'm not sure ( Read more... )
