Hiya everybody!

Sorry that I've been a bit of a rare face around here recently. And before you ask - no, I haven't got fed up with any members at all, it's just been a bit manic lately, and I apologise for kind of disappearing with no warning!

As I'm sure many of you are finding, it's getting extremely close to my exams - for me anyway, with some having already taken place e.g. German, Geography and ICT and many more in the near future. So, as you can imagine I've been putting in some last-minute unearthy hours of revision, hence I've found it difficult to keep up online!

As many of you will quite rightly point out, this isn't the way to go about revision, and so I've created a scheduled timetable from now on! This might seem strangely organised for me, but it means I spend designated time on each subject in turn once I've completed my homework, meaning I still have time in the evenings to do what I want and chat to you guys!

I realise it might seem quite extreme to be apologising for simple things like this, but you've all become such great mates over the past god-knows-how-long, that I feel I owe you an explanation. Plus, good luck to anyone who'll be in the same situation as me now or in the future, and if anyone needs a chat - I'm here for you all!

Now this'll seem a bit hypocritical, but I have to nip off and finish an English essay for tomorrow, but I'll be seeing you all soon!

Tom.
