Good news for LBSC fans

Fans of the now-defunct LBSC will, no doubt, be delighted and thrilled to hear that JRC (formerly known as Fat Tony) has started blogging (again) at twoflow.co.uk.

For the uninitiated, The LBSC was originally a site where three people blogged in communal harmony, started on 14 May 2003. It was, essentially, JRC’s creation, and was very entertaining and occasionally disturbingly popular, possibly because (at the time, at least) it just worked. There was also some NS connection that I never really understood, not being a big gamer, but I’m sure that was some crucial part of the story, too.

However, in December 2005, despite the addition of two further contributors, it finally keeled over and died, mainly because we’d all moved on, and didn’t really fit the LB description any more (not that we ever really did…). Ever the medic, after it keeled over, I attempted to resuscitate it, and that resuscitation attempt resulted in this site turning from this to the blog that’s here today, with just me posting, though bringing all of my LBSC content with me. A few very odd people followed me here from The LBSC, probably because I continually plugged my site over there even before it became a blog. Whether they’re still around or not, I have no idea. But if they are, I’m sure they will be glad to learn that JRC is back. As, of course, am I.

That’s sweet but I’ll only get bored of it within a few weeks. Thanks anyway though.
