Just a few words about what has been happening lately.
I was all set to do the training day last Sunday near Newark when the organiser (Widget) had to go into hospital for a pretty serious operation a couple of weeks beforehand. So for those that have bought online, it should be happening some time in […]

My mate Prickles asked what “blog” stood for, apart from a “Bloody Load Of Garbage”. I didn’t have an answer for him so I said we would settle for that.
