Hello all! I'm sure you've noticed the changes happening as I will be catching the 'Amber Queen'. However there are two things you can do! 1.) wish me luck as this Saturday I have bike to the wood, get her out of her log, catch her, and bike home. It'll take over an hour most likely so it is necessary I need some luck! Please wish me luck a miracle, you name it but I need some help from you guys!

It’s a poll, where people can vote. I’m not sure how they are made, though.

Ya, how do you make polls?
