I'm not sure about whether I can make it there on Friday (having a last minute two-day absence from work when we're understaffed like mad is probably not going to help my case for another day off in like four weeks, eek) but barring catastrophe I should be all go for get/together-y festivities, and I will work out whether I'll want in on the group accom and get back to you as soon as humanly possible - hope that's okay!
