Well, actually we've been back for a while. But here's a catch-up of post-Christmas posts on PA...

Big Day Over and Out.
9:26 Jan 21, 2012 in Capture by Jackson Perry
I wasn’t planning to go to this year’s BDO, until it was announced this would be the last. Some suggested I was being sucked in, but who cares, I was there, and it was pretty good.
