Just buckle down man, no excuses about work, there's 24 hours in a day you know.<br /><br />I'm having a couple of friends stay and we're going to have a western game. I decided in a fit of madness to name one of the characters after you. It may come as a suprise but he's called Swede. I wasn't on top form and it was the best I could come up with - sorry. Don't worry though I expect he'll get shot. :)<br /><br />Vagabondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14031648950206231742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1531672008857745936.post-52847438831038945452019-11-06T23:31:01.565+01:002019-11-06T23:31:01.565+01:00I fell no pressure :-DI fell no pressure :-DJoakim Strömhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11051664911310509718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1531672008857745936.post-53898492688089165672019-11-06T23:30:14.747+01:002019-11-06T23:30:14.747+01:00The game is played, photos taken and workload some...The game is played, photos taken and workload something fierce now.
