Counterslip website goes live

The new Counterslip website (http://www.counterslip.co.uk/) has gone live! There's been a great team of people helping to get it up and running, but it's taken us a while to get a first version ready. I think we initially aimed a bit too high with our grand designs for all singing and dancing site, but we've had to cut down the plans a bit in order to get a first version live.

It might not look much at the moment, but we've got basic news and events functionality built in, and a whole lot of ideas half ready to put live soon. Any comments greatly appreciated!

Out the door and turn left

My mate Steve has just started a second epic journey which he is chronicling at http://www.overlandtales.com/. It's a great read (as was his first round-the-world trip) and full respect to him for the journey - that's certainly dedication to Hobo principles! If you get a chance, check out his diary - he's got a fantastic way with words.
