About 6 weeks ago I was browsing in a shop, the shop sells fairly expensive sporting items. Had a nice chat with the owner who advised me what I should buy and we went on to have a bit of a chat. At the time I didn't have enough cash on me, so thanked him […]

My good friend Jason runs "Digital Product Delivery" (DPD) over at www.digitalproductdelivery.com, a service that I've been using ever since it's inception.
