Another nice stat


It was another nice start to the day but it didn't last. By lunch time it was overcast and the next day, yesterday, it was raining. Oh well, guess it must be the uk.

Dark days are dawning


Well the clocks haven't changed back yet so that means that the mornings are becoming noticeably darker. This morning wasn't though. It was a nice clear morning and I was up and able to capture the early sunrise along with a few of the planes trails that cover the skies of the uk. It was quite nice. (yes but those dots are just bugs stuck to the windscreen!)

Mark and Caths wedding.

Yesterday afternoon Sarah and I attended Mark and Catherine's Wedding. Sarah had eariler attended the service, but I had decided to give Peter a hand with insulating underneath his floor. Not being invited to the wedding breakfast, we made the most of our invitaion to the after party reception. It was a great affair with a live band for most of the evening followed by a DJ pumping out the tunes. When we first arrived everone was in the bar waiting for the room to be readied for the party. Once we were let in we were treated to a fantastic coreographed first dance by the bride and groom; it went down fantastic. It was however not your traditional bridal waltz, but more like a modern take on the first dance. There were even props!


After a few dances with Sarah and eveybody else ont ehdance floor I dont think that anybody there was not havein g some fun. Pretty soon a bit of food was served and this included a BBQ (not very traditionally british) and there was also a huge chocolate fountain! This went down a treat and Sarah actually made friends with the fountain. I think that she would have put her head in the fountain as well if she wern't stopped by the vigilant chocolate fountain guards.



So more dancing and taking of photos continued until the end of hte night till our carriages were called at 1 o'clock in teh morning. I think that we all had an awesome time and Ieffinatley agree that buying anew suit was well worth it. After all I think that I looke alright.

17th Sept

Well it was Sarah's birthday today, so i had made her a cake, wich she started eating at 7 in the morning, and I think that the celebrations for her birthday only jsut stopped on sunday. She seemed to have a great time, I took her out fror a nice dinner on her birthday while on sunday Peter invited us all out for a nice Chinese meal. I think that Srah maybe may have been a bit spoilt, but then again you only turn 25 once.

Benidorm, Spain

A couple of weekwends ago I made the spontaneous decision to join Mark on his bucks weekend away to Benidorm in Spain. It was an awesome trip and I think that evetryone on the trip had a really good time. There was 16 guys that went on the trip and it turned out to be one long long piss up.

It all started to go a bit bizzare from the start. At 4 in the morning I tried to take a pocket knife onto a plane, which turned out to be the 11th of september. Alas I had been lookin gfor the pocket kinfe for ages. It tuend out that it had just been in the bottom of my bag the whole time. Well I guess that those X-ray macines really do work. The next thing I know that happened was it was 5 in the morning and I was drinking beer and being told that I was a typical mic dundee and everyone was taking the piss out of me for it. It was all a good laugh.

We got to benidorm, and I actually thought that apart form the weather there was not that much different form england, as everbody around us was british, I however flet like the token australian. We checked into the hotel and everybody started to relax and ahve a good time. The company was great, the weather was brilliant and everybody was feeling like having a good time.


The weekend went from friday to monday so by Sunday night we had all had enought and a good rest was in order. Flying back monday morning was a bit of relief as it ment that my own bed beconed and sleep would be found at last. It was a great weekend all in all.

Long time no post!

Its been a while since I put a post on this blog, just basicall havn't felt like dong one, but will put some pictures up of the stuff thats been going on.

Pie in the sky?


Or actually on the plate or it was on the plate until the hungry hungry sarah got her fork into it.
