Thanks, John, for the opportunity to be in a SECC team.  Great job to my 
team mates - enjoyed talking briefly to three of you during the

Look forward to future SECC (+ Coalition) team efforts.

Won't be long until I will be able to participate in the week day Phone 
Fray events and also NCCC NS sprints.   My working days (and 5 AM get-up 
alarms) are drawing neigh ......
