Well fuck me it's been a while..
You can imagin my suprise when I received an email from SG saying that, somebody had randomly decided to pay for my subscription.. wouldn't suprise me if it's a marketing scheme but if someone out there did randomly pay for me then, well gee thanks!
So much has happened Since my last blog here almost a year ago, so much and at the same time so little.
I'm 100% Freelance now, I'm no longer working at gamestation to pay the bills.. It's scary at times wondering when the next job will come in but I've been working closely with the Princes Trust and I now have a mentor and they gave me some funding to pay for some marketing which will prove more than usefull when I eventually get it.
Most of my close friends (the guys I grew up with) have left the city, A couple of them are still around I think without them I would've gone insane with cabin fever by now and the ones that aren't here visit regulary so it's not to bad, although I'm enjoying living alone that's for sure! my Mum's now at university in Cardiff (lovely city) and my sister went with her to study at a collage there.
In this time I've also gotten used to being single, vowing not to get into a relationship anytime soon.. only to fall into one with a girl who was great without quite realising how.. although that only lasted 4 months because we just didn't have that click after the honeymoon phase and so after that, back to being single again learning never to say never haha.
I'll do another update in the next day or so about more recent shinanigans and stuff I've got planned.
I have to admit I didn't realise I missed writing this blog untill just now
..Now to put on some of the Sharpe boxset, upload some pics to facebook, check out the forums on here and more importantly perve on some fitties!

When I started FL'n I was on benefits too. But I had good deal though. I ate least had a few rent free months with my mom.
I never had steady work. It was good when the going was good, and it was scary when the goings were scary. I had a student loan to pay off too (230 bucks/month so like 115 pounds lol). BTW, I saw the pound has been taking a beating.
You may get some crappy clients for a while, but when you start getting some good ones it'll be worth it.
