Rick’s Message for 2012

Rick's Message for 2012

OOPS! It was all Rick’s fault, honest!

It looks like ‘Rick’ has an apology to make, because he caused Hikerbox to go offline for the past month. He denies all responsibility, but I’m not letting him get away with it, no siree!

Sorry to everyone that has been trying to access the site while it’s been ‘away’ but things are back up and running again as usual now.

Cheers, Snowman.

Unfortunately, that means that the data I have entered will now also be out of date by a … Continue reading »
