I reckon S is off to Erotica 2006, I've looked briefly for previous references without success, but I'm sure I remember at least one earlier expedition.

TTE, during the run up to a war the weeks before are known as TTW, simply, Transision to war, during that time the military expect & prepare for, increased civil unrest, protesters, attacks from terrorists etc. Guards are doubled, sangos built, troops moved into camps etc.
We are now in TTE, Transision to XXXXXXX, lets just call it transision to event.
The event name must not be mentioned, this would breach security.
Walls have ears, I know, I found one in my pie.

This thread is truly a stroke of genius! By announcing that we only have 167 hours and 52 minutes to wait, but by not indicating exactly what we're waiting for, Skipy has condensed the underlying principles of existential thought and the Theatre of the Absurd into one simple statement! Brilliant! From now on, when we think of Sartre, Camus, Beckett, or Ionesco we'll also think of Skipy! Or, maybe not.
