Chat away, Night Owls/Early Birds

You know, the previous post was meant to be the last of the day, but you people are immensely chatty, so it got a bit on the long side.

I couldn’t think what to put in this post, so I just picked a completely random video (blame JER).

See you tomorrow – and keep your shirts on.
