"It is typical of Oxford," I said, "to start the new year in autumn."

Oh, to be in England
Now that April's there,
And whoever wakes in England
Sees, some morning, unaware,
That the lowest boughs and the brushwood sheaf
Round the elm-tree bole are in tiny leaf,
While the chaffinch sings on the orchard bough
In England - now!!
~Robert Browning

Can you delete that embarrassing post please?
*ahem*
It is typical of North Central to start the new year a month late.
lol Eric!!! In retrospect, I probably should have left it to teach you some humility :P Proofreading is something that should never be overlooked (but tired eyes and fingers can be ignored for the sake of politeness) I.e. the post wasn't as embarrassing as you thought...
At least you can say it was an honest mistake (not a drunken one - like some people could claim around here)
Cheers!!
... well. Now I'm not sure if I should be thanking you for deleting it or not.
you're welcome :P
