Entertaining

This is a great entertainment show.

robin with a nice cup of tea ,

Well worth a listen

Excellent show featuring two nuns and their progress in and thoughts on MMOs. Clearly passionate, they aren't afraid to criticise or praise! Highly recommended.

I Blame you two :)

Love the podcast was disaponted when you started talking more about WOW than WAR but the following is from my blog and I blame you two and you little dog too LOL.

"One night I was sat in-front of my computer absolutely drunk and i did something unforgivable (you know how it is when you have had a few, you think something is a good idea at the time) i woke up the next day with a banging headache an noticed the laptop was still on and I had a new icon sat on my desktop no no no, I thought, but it was true I had in my drunken state resubscribed to World of Warcraft, well I have paid for it might as well play it , I logged in and to my surprise, my character Pimms I was so sure i deleted was still their!! and she was level 55 (the magic number for playing the new expansion class a death knight) well cut a short story shorter I am hooked again I will be buying WOTLK later this month (damn you blizzard and this epic game,I was clean for over a year I tried to get out but they pulled me back in)"
