I don't know how you managed to do it, @blanchy, but this story outdoes the last one I read.

Tom sounds like the kind of guy you don't want with you simply because of the negativity, but it's mostly because he doesn't get attention, so when he does, and in a big way, it's almost life changing. I'm guessing, though, none of you are really all that heartbroken that he doesn't speak to any of you any more. :)

Congratulations for another curie. And for surviving another lads holiday. :)
