So, I have finally completed Assassins Creed 2 (Brilliant story line – Can’t wait for the next episode!) and decided to give COD:MW2 a blast!
I must say, ever since I picked up the controller, I haven’t stopped thinking about it! It’s advanced so much since the days of the M1 Grand (Call of Duty 2 [...]
So, after about 4 days of Tweeting I have started to gather a small selection of lovely followers! (If your one of them thanks for taking the time to read this!)

The installation is complete! The router is up and running (the second one, which Virgin delivered yesterday!) with remarkable speeds!
