To say 2010 has been a big year for Lowdown would be quite the understatement. We successfully made the transition from print to online publication without losing our minds or smashing our computer screens (though at times that seemed the most satisfying solution), and managed to secure the funding to grow ever bigger and better in 2011. We've seen our National Directory blossom, our subscriptions flourish and our Google Stats go mental. And it's all thanks to you, our wonderful readers, subscribers and supporters.

So this festive season, we here at Lowdown would like to say a massive thank-you, and wish you all the merriest of Christmas's and happiest of New Years.

And we're not the only ones feeling festive - the Australia Council for the Arts have made a lovely Season's Greetings video you should check out as well.

So pour yourself a glass of something nice and congratulate yourselves on a frabjous 2010. See you in the new year!

Jacquie, Ade and Jane x
