Sir Creep

Well it's interesting. You give up on these folks and they come through and someone you keep hearing about stays on. I guess we hadnt heard from Mr A-Z since Spring, and I've seen others get hits like that this year outta the blue. I reckon this day and age of social media we don't hear from them or a representative we can start assuming the worst. Diski was like that. Anyway, I was thinking I was done this year so an Autumnal hit is welcome. Thanks for the update Y-Dub! SC Edit: well maybe I can hope for a top 20 DDP finish, still 11 weeks to go though.
