Happy New Year! We spent it eating swiss fondue with friends and playing RPG, Sing Star and Buzz and generally making a fool of ourselves.... The fireworks were really nice - in Kiel people mostly threw firecrackers, but here in Munich everyone had all sorts of beautiful rockets.

We have a lot of material yet for serious Business, so 2011 is bound to be fun! So we wish all our readers success and happiness, and hope you'll spread the word so Serious Business becomes more successful (which makes us happy!)
