Hello All... Basically this is a place for me to dump some good photos, let you know how i'm getting along and to convince my Mum that i'm still alive.

If i've not updated because I actually have died you'll be reassured to know that i saved all the villagers and my last words were "If i'm gonna die then you're coming with me" Here's a map for you to look at - ... read more
