    Since I won't be in tomorrow (I've peaked my available vacation
    time again), lemme just take this opportunity to wish all the
    COMMUSIC noters a safe and fun filled Fourth of July.
    
    Please don't drink and drive.

	Well, while I had no plans for drinking, I had hoped to do a little
driving.

    Bastile day is July 14th. Nothing to lose your head about. 
1492.10Stock up with Paracetamol and enjoy itMARVIN::MACHINFri Jul 01 1988 15:5312
    We let fireworks off on November 5th. It used to be celebrate the
    burning of the Pope (wishful thinking, of course, since no brit
    ever succeeded), then it became the burning of Guy Fawkes (who damn
    near succeeded blowing up the Houses of Parliament -- come back
    all is forgiven, etc) and now it's an effigy of Margaret Thatcher
    (at least, it is in MY backgarden). Course, we will be celebrating
    the end of Henley Regatta here in the Reading environs this weekend.
    This involves lots of fireworks as we say goodbye to all the
    Porsche-driving, Pimms-drinking, loud-mouthed, Oxbridge-accented,
    car-telephoned jerks for another twelve months.
    
    Richard.
