Jim,
I'm heading over tomorrow myself. I'll give you a wave if I see you there. Do you know if there is an agreed Twitter hashtag for Salon related tweets?
I like this "picture" very well done!
Hi Jim,
Forecast looking sunny but v. cold! Suggested hashtag for twitter #SVL11 ?
Hope to say hi over the weekend.
Safe trip

See you there Colin.
Looking forward to seeing you Micaela and Sue. Hashtag – #SVL11 looks good.
