The adventures of Almigo

Missed out on the special treatment on Valentines day? Didn't cop a dead rose bathed in recycled chocolate from Easter two years back? No hastily scrawled (in crayon no less) servo card when someone has professed 'I love yo bits.'?  Maybe you need to treat yo self, brother. Or sister. How about a limited time book bargain then?

And then I saw an ad on the box that had a surprising lack of both thieves and stolen goods and so I considered my interest awakened and downloaded the app to explore further. A strange way to discover things sure but so far it's been working in my favor. Thieves and scammers used to love Seadoo's for some reason..
