Apologies for anyone not seeing the chi in the title, I may not be using the most-compatible way of putting greek in html. Feel free to educate me.

A brief summary of my next couple of weeks. Christmas with my parents, grandparents, and Aunt and Uncle at the last's house. Possibly a few days break with my friend Justin. Back to cambridge for new year, probably with a couple of close friends (T, J and other halves) though I could be persuaded to consider something else :)

Presents: The latest Neal Stephenson Quicksilver trilogy. Squee! TV & microwave for the flat. Squee! Chocolate (I don't know for sure, but it always turns up somewhere :)).

Birthday: Gah! Ick! I'm going to be 23 in january. Kill me first and no-one mention that again :)

You need a web geek for that. What I did was type &chi; which shows up as χ¹. You should also be able to use <font face=Symbol>X</font>. But I'm not sure how you're supposed to do it if you want actual greek, like, as in, if you were greek, as opposed to just getting the odd letter.

[1] In case you're curious, to get &chi; I typed &amp;chi; though there'd be other ways, basically typing &chi; but doing anything that breaks it up so it doesn't get turned into χ such as &<made up tag>chi;
