show 4
Posted by Jowlstar on Aug 27, 2004
This show was the first show where I got to actually work with my website and make changes. I believe that I’m getting the concept. ChefTd has given me two tests on my knowledge and I have successfully passed both tests.
I have now added new information to my website. If you have a second then check my website out, I will be adding more and more so check it out every day. The website I’m building is at orting.com
