    I should also thank a few guys for their photos and assistance, @MSNWatch @duffy7 @Vanallard @mac_omega @Bill Sohne and if there are any others I’ve overlooked I’m sure they’ll remind me.

    Thanks guys that really means a lot, we’re going to try a few different things and covering some different topics to see what hits and what misses over the coming weeks, aiming to release about two per week on Tuesday and Thursday evening my time.
