Hi! It's 00:17 on my computer but I haven't received my email and info pack yet.

Should I be worried?

What if it isn't here in the morning?

Or are you just working through a long list and mine might not arrive until later?

Not that I'm panicking or anything ...

erm, you did read the instructions didn't you? Only 20 hours (now 19.5) to write.

We are WRITING a NiaD. No one said we had to read.

Oh sorry Piggy, I've just gone back a page and see that you've already said that you might be 30 minutes late, so I won't worry yet.

I'll just put my feet up, brew up a fresh pot and replace the batteries in my pacemaker

Maybe yellowcake was a little too close to piggy and now our leader is a cooked side of bacon...

Mm mm. Bacon.

And as you can see yellowcake has been assimilated.
