Geek Night This Week Is Sunday
On account of Bryn being a pest, Geek Night this week will be on Sunday, not Friday. Would people who read this ensure that people like Binky and Fatty get told, ‘cos I’m not sure they read my blog. Thanks.

you can lend to me for the evening, it would be much appreciated.
