Hi everyone,

I'm on holiday in Devon and I have stumbled across a little internet cafe so I've popped in for an hour to check out how you are all going. I'm having a nice time here in Brixham, Its been really sunny but its started to get really clouded over so the weather may be going downhill.

I've been to Plymouth Torquay and Exeter, and I have managed to locate gamestations everywhere :) I have even bought sonic adventure on the dreamcast, although I don't have a dreamcast, but that is soon to be remedied. I have spent loads of time in the sun and I'm even starting to develop a bit of a tan (well I gone sort of freckly).

Anyway....I'll be back home in a week and I'll be back online full time again, not that you missed me anyway :(

just thought I would remind you that I still existed anyway.

Wish you were all here...or something

does that sound enough like a postcard for you?

I would have sent you a lovely picture of beaches and harbours and stuff but I couldn't so there!

I'm Back!!!!!

I found all of the games shops in south devon, bought a dreamcast and spent lots of time on boat cruises. The floor has been rocking for the past two days.

Brixham was nice, couldn't find any beach though. the house overlooked the harbour so I did a fair bit of sitting on the patio writing stuff.

Anyway, now I'm back I'd better play on ,my new dreamcast yeay!

hm, I'm still in Devon, Sunny Exmouth in fact, where every day is like a holiday (except when I'm working, which is always).

And yes, we have a games shop and I'm friends with the owner. Well, what did you expect? If we didn't have one I would have set one up by now anyway!

Don't stay in Devon too long - you may start chanting "Say OO-ARR to AMBROSIA" if you're not careful....

I should know - I lived in Exeter for over 10 years...

I live in Brixham ! What did you do down here anyway, theres nothing to do in brixham except go to the beach and stuff. Did you go down the big road coming into brixham ?it starts with a little toll house at one end and then goes right down into town , well , i live half way down that road up a hill called holwell road. so what did you do here ?
