Chris Fountain...just an update, I've edited out the telephone number you quoted in my reply to your post.

While you obviously have some problem with what I've posted with Boston (and I really don't understand that at all, but whatever) I don't think you've done yourself any service by posting your personal phone number if in fact that's what it is. As you're quite concerned about IORR rules, I can't imagine that's cool with BV either, so I'd suggest you go in and edit the number out.

If you're just messing with me and that's not really your number, touché.

Thanks - I can't remember if I reported you or not but I will report myself for makin an uneccessary reportif it happened or not!

Hey it is Christmas time! Soon Santa will be riding his raindeers across the IORR news pages, waiting for the Abu Dhabi show to happen. Meanwhile I am on a one week holiday to Gran Canary where there are more Norwegians than back home as it seems. Flying 5 1/2 hours south but still sort of cold weather. Had to move out snow for an hour before I could leave my house this morning. Life is hard but it is just 69 days until tour start! Happy holidays!

Now that's a funny image, Norwegians taking over the island. Are you all huddled together Bjornulf, looking anxiously for the nearest ski slope?

Have fun and try to relax a little.

New England's largest Christmas tree, at 80 feet and decorated with 30,000 LED lights blinking different colors, is in Boston's historic Faneuil Hall Marketplace. Below are images of the 2013 as well as 2012 and 2011 Christmas trees, which are an annual attraction in the city.

Snow-free winters as always, it looks, in continental Europe (and Great Britain). Is it the greenhouse effect or has it always been like that?
Hope you get some snow for Christmas Day at least!

The snow is falling here and it's almost Christmas, what could be better?

Treacle, it's too late for coffee, so I'll raise a cup of tea...

Happiest of Holidays to everyone on IORR!

It isn't too late for a glass of wine though, is it...heading to a party shortly, I'll raise at least one toast to you and my IORRians!

Enjoy your time in ran canaria.

Are you staying in La Palmas or Las playa? anyway enjoy we used to go to Puerto rico a bit much warmer.

Peace & happiness to all during the holidays.

Merry Christmas to all and Happy Holidays to all of other religious denominations!

JamesfDouglas - Love the picture from Ottawa!!

Merry Christmas to all!!!

Lovely pictures to all who shared, thanks! I chose to move from snow climates years ago. But, Merry Christmas Greetings plus Happy & safe New Year to all! If you're drinking, please don't drive. From (usually) sunny Southern California....

Merry Christmas, Happy Solstice, etc. from a train somewhere in the English countryside! (And great pics, y'all.)

Merry Christmas to everyone. Here in upstate NY it's amost early spring-like weather with predictions for the weekend for heavy rain with the temperature rising to the mid-50's (Farenheit). A couple of days ago it was snowing and below zero. Go figure! I don't think we'll have a white Christmas...just massive flooding I'm afraid!
