Well, it’s finally arrived and I must say I’m very pleased with The Pirate Deck. It’s been a labour of love but I now hold in my hands a copy of my first published card game. The objective of the game is to strategically use pirate cards to board a ship and steal treasure coins […]
Charity music event mascot
Very excited to announce that my services are required for a music event mascot. My band, Solarbird, will be teaming up with another popular local rock covers band, Off The Cuff to raise money for The Stars Appeal in Salisbury.
