A Much Belated Check-In
Good morning Deep Space Fivers,
It feels like its been a very long time … too long.
Some of you will be aware that I’ve had a number of issues going on IRL, ill health (not my own) and work related shenanigans that have all conspired to sap my creativity…

Wish Me Luck!
Good Afternoon Deep Space Fivers,
In the next hour or so I'll be heading out to a final round interview.
The presentations (yes, that was plural) I've been working on for that last few weeks will be given and fingers crossed I'll get it.
If I get this in the…

Just a quick note to let you all know that we've finally got BT to admit that there is a fault on the line - we've had internet but the landline has been out for over a week now.

Website & Post Tags
Afternoon all,
You'll have noticed that we've replaced our site images though we are still on a default skin. I'm playing around with a possible site image to replace the generic one we currently have on the front page.

I'm going to try to finish up any lingering JP's I have.
I'm available…

Not really news, but a request for anyone who is good with music
As most of you know, I'm getting married in just over a month (eek!). I've asked Robin what he wants to do about music, but as he wants to be 'surprised' I've got that to do too - I'm the (selective) luddite of the couple and usually leave the techy…

Anybody interested in a JP
I have an idea for a JP involving Security, Civilians, and a stolen weapon.
Any Civilian characters or Civilian NPCs want to do a JP?
