With Gow unable to join this week due to having some work to do before Fiona getting back from a holiday, I took the opportunity to take a break myself as well.
However I couldn’t quite bring myself to do it, my OCD kicked in about the fact that I was about to miss a week.
However I also have been meaning for weeks to do a catch up on what’s going on with the Site, Podcast & YouTube, so took the opportunity to do a short podcast on that stuff.
For those who had trouble with iTunes or an android device you can now download the podcast from Stitcher http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/8bit-alliance/the-drinky-talky-thingy?refid=stpr or any of the following sources
