A Decision Made.

First off I’d like to apologise for the lack of posts recently, I got sucked in to World of Warcraft for a bit there but the novelty is beginning to wear off. It does tend to get very samey after a while. My subscription lapses next Tuesday and I don’t know if I’ll be continuing [...]
