Dear John Allison, I have been enjoying Bad Machinery from the very beginning, and love all of its characters. I find their personalities very cute, and they remind me of my own childhood thru their innocent curiosity at such an age. Living in the USA, I love the fact that these adventures happen across the seas, which makes the stories very refreshing to me. Thank you for creating this little world which I am sure is very popular among teenagers, and I think you are awesome. Congratulations!
