    I am BACK!! This is because I promised myself I wouldn't go on the forum until my tax return was done, I have gone from the dining table COVERED in recipets/invoices/general crap to having all my books up to date and everything neatly filed away and the tax return DONE! so yay! :j

    [/LIST]
    Feel your pain, I had been putting it off for so long but I have JUST finished mine, don't let anyone ever tell you I am a last minute person :rotfl:
    I might get started on this years one now :D




    These sound like great goals and quite similar to mine in many ways :T



    Your goals are AWESOME! If I lived nearer I would totally join ur band! Welcome to the thread :)

    Thank you! Shame about the distance!

    What do you play?
