Away on holiday [ash cloud permitting)

I'm away on holiday until the first of June, ash cloud permitting. Seems likely I'll get away, but uncertain whether I'll make it back - Icelandic volcanoes may decide otherwise. It's unlikely I'll be blogging from Madrid, so try not to smash the place up in my absence [i.e. no teenage parties]. Be back before you know it, refreshed, relaxed and full of the joys. Meanwhile - onwards!
