It's been a great week for me too, except the day with the snow
storm.  Next time, Jes, please make the weather more stable.

Ah, btw I owe:

 - EUR20 to you for paying the restaurant.

 - EUR5 to Michael, but he gave his credit up so I'm

 - EUR1 to Suzi for the sliding trolley

Looks like a nice place.  If you also managed to get it cheap, that
would be awesome.

You could try telling them that you know where they live and such...
