Me too.
I'm at home (Islington)  most of time and do need a reason to go  
outside sometimes and get some fresh air.
So just tell me when it's more  convenient for you and I'll come over.

BTW, anyone here plays tennis? I just bought a new racquet and  
looking for someone to play with.
  I'm not that much of a player but my tennis is better then my ruby.

Cheers,

Eran.
