It's been a while since we updated this mainly because we seem to have been very busy doing not an awful lot. God knows how we managed to have jobs, it seems to be perfectly possible to fill your day doing little more than eating and going to a temple ... Read more >

Well, it seems the emotional baggage we were carrying was just too heavy! After nearly 12 years together, Wick are no more. Was it the stresses of traveling and on a teeny tiny budget that forced us apart, or was this outcome always on the cards? Who ... Read more >
