Happy new year, hope it's better than 2000. I've decided not to do a long-winded review of the year as everyone else has done one by now, and I didn't have a particularly brilliant year anyway.

There is one lot of gigs I'm missing when I'm away and that's Winter Sprinter. NEWS/ UPDATE 17th December 2000 Added today....
