My System: Mostly gathering dust cos I'm a lazy git. Porty dish face blew off the mount, not too pleased... The Sleepy Hollow pollracle has spoken! |
I've placed an order for a Ringer T-Shirt and a cap, all adorned with the Satellites.co.uk logo!!!  Whether Cafepress will accept my Visa Debit card or not is another question...

Must be pretty busy for the delivery to be this delayed...
