Leaving an empty house

[Mathman]

Find the main pipe just after your water meter. Turn it off, then drain all your taps in the house. Once they are dry, leave them on, then disconnect the lowest supply pipe in your house. The remaining water will come out. If you leave them open, any water freezing should not be a problem.

Thanks, Mathman...sounds a little complex for me, though! :)
