[Blackpool] Happy New Year

[James Page]

Morning’ everyone…

I had every intention of popping in on Saturday, except the thirty or so hours after midnight NYE went missing somehow.

Anyhoo - Tony - I will hopefully be able to drop by next Saturday with some dollar for the Zero.



Best wishes,
James

He does some really good 'don't turn it on, tear it apart' eevblog style serious commentary but also some spoofy stuff that has had me laughing, his Japanese poundland doll with a flamethrower review is pretty funny and worth searching for.
