BTC #14: Ledaig 11, 2005-2017, 58.6% – Signatory

Posted on 20 December 2017 by

Yes! Another zero pointer! I’m getting back to my usual self, apparently. Also, my Peatometer is broken. Or I’m having more of a cold than I though. Or my sample was weird. I don’t really think I can blame things … Continue reading →

Ledaig 18, 46.3%
