Coming soon – Microsoft candies for all.
Those of you, few as you are, that still visit this site may have noticed a little bit of an absence this past month or so. Regrettably in this time I have been… somewhat distressed… I shall be seeing a doctor on Thursday after an informal diagnosis of Anxiety, a form of depression. That said, [...]
