Re: Happy Birthday, Courtenay!
Thanks, everyone. Not doing anything special today — I'll be working, but not until the afternoon shift, so I've just had a quiet morning off. My recent holiday was my early birthday present, as my family gave me some money towards it.
No cake so far, but I believe my parents have put a package in the mail, which may well contain some of my favourite Aussie chocolate biscuits (Arnott's Mint Slice) that aren't available in the UK — nothing's arrived yet, though...

Good on ya, Pete mate. (Don't worry, I won't be offended if it's not an Australian beer. I wouldn't wish Fosters or XXXX on anyone.)
