August 18, 2008

The dream is over. Well, I say ‘dream’, but I mean unholy nightmare of having cars and bits strewn everywhere. And OK, I say over not in the sense of any sort of finality, more of a page-turning en route to The End. But it’s getting closer! I have a pair of back lights and the [...]
