Hole in the Garden.


Hello again world, I've slightly changed the look of everything on this blog.

Never hurts to experiment with design and see what the response is, so feel free to comment on it.  And yes, that is a flower-pattern wallpaper background.

In other news, you've probably already noticed the poll sitting there, waiting for your vote like a happy puppy waiting for more treats.  Feed it please.

With a new look comes a new story.

I frowned at how quickly he replied.  It reminded me of babysitting my nephews and how they answered when I asked what they held behind their backs.  Whenever they answered that fast it was usually something like a bloated toad or a fossilised dog turd.
