(£21,000!) I knew it would be tough, but I didn’t think it would be this tough. It is relentless! I’d imagine this is the stage where most people throw … Continue reading Digging For Gold

First of all, this morning I went to a successful business meeting and as a result, picked up £620 of sponsorship.I’ve also been to work at Nuclear Races which I love.
