Hall of Mirrors #11: Poacher's Cottage

After two months of silence, the door to the Hall of Mirrors once again creeps open. This is most likely going to be the last story in the collection; a two-parter called Poacher's Cottage. It's the one I was going to release before Christmas but I couldn't do so coz my mum fell and fractured her pelvis so I had to go over to England and be a helpful son type person. Then when I got back I made the damn fool mistake of buying 'Bioshock' for the X-Box and that ate two weeks up - along with being back at work. So when I finally sat down to work on Poacher's Cottage it was to realise that it needed a fair bit of re-writing. When that was finally done, I had to record it - but this was hampered by weird inexplicable crackling sounds on the recording which meant I had to record it two or three times before it was done. And then when it was done I listened to it on an iPod and thought, 'F****, it's hissier than a bunch of snakes in a frying pan'. So I had to arse about for ages getting rid of the hiss. And so now, after all that, Poacher's Cottage part one is live at Podshow. Here's a link:
