In honour of our own AFF idol....I have produced this once only Photoshop image of Russ.



Gaela is keeping him busy for 30mins...So grab it while you can before he deletes it!

I don't just photoshop anyone Russ...Only those I admire and respect,,,and just so you know blame Gaela!! It was her idea... :P

Happy birthday again big fella!
