If you don’t know, I’m not telling you and I DON’T recommend you Google it, ,not if you’re at work or anywhere. It’s not worth it.

It’s not perfect but oh my f***. Finally.

Photobox (who I’ve used before and been very happy with) now allow you to print your Flickr photos - you have to do it through their website but still.

Hi there…

I am writing to you to tell you that, in a short while, you are going to be arrested for killing the Prime Minister. You didn’t do it, right? Wrong. Here at MI6, when we want to kill someone and say that you did it, you can be sure that we’ve made sure that you did.

I’m TOO excited! So excited about Bisping - Leben. Bisping’s a Brit, so obviously I want him to win but on the forum I read they all think Leben will win (video - not the best advertisement for the sport, but damn), because Bisping hasn’t got to the power to knock him out. We’ll see…
