Notice board
What's up guys, dycaite here with a brief but very special notice board post, the type that only comes around once a year (and no I'm not a month ahead of everyone, I'm talking about the anniversary of the LMW's creation!) That's right, over the weekend the LMW turned 7 years old, which feels crazier and crazier the more I think about it. It hasn't always been smooth sailing, but we've had some great times and we wouldn't be where we are today without our fantastic staff and community. I don't think there's much more I can say that I haven't already said on our previous anniversaries/birthdays aside from thank you very much to all who made this possible! :D And a special thanks to Gaucelm for the awesome celebration artwork!
That's all for now, but don't worry, we'll have another proper notice board coming your way soon - for now we just wanted to sit back, relax and celebrate this 7 year strong journey; here's to 7 more!
