For the first time in quite a few years I won't be having New Years at my parents. This year will probably be spent at home waiting for my phone to ring to tell me our POS windows-based playout server has gone tits up. To which I will tell them I've had a drink (even if I haven't) and kindly inform them they should've considered the VPN solution I suggested so I could remotely toggle the SNMP controlled MDU I said we should've got too.
