Hi Reception123. I noticed here you have made a bit of an error with the notice template at the top of the page, it's 2-3 November, not August, isn't it? BTW, if I see any more errors on that page, should I tell you, or should I plunge forward and fix these errors? --~ curtaintoad ~~ talk ~ 07:17, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
