No time for blogging tonight, too busy editing the 944 photos I took at Kate & Duncan's wedding yesterday. So far I have culled almost 500 pictures, now I'm on to cropping...

26.02.09

Mrs Kate Branchett.

25.02.09

Books and bows, films and Funny Girl. We covered many topics in our High Fidelity conversation in comms today.

Shrove Tuesday!

I might have been willing to share my chocolate spread with the Guides, but they weren't getting their hands on my Absolutely Pure Maple Syrup.

23.02.09

Mmm nutella. A Guiding staple. We had a last minute dash getting chocolate spread and pancakes for the Guides. I had to leave the seal on the jar, if I open it they'll be none left for the girls tomorrow.

22.01.09

Mostly I hate learning to drive, but today I almost enjoyed it. I'll be joining the Stig on Top Gear in no time.

21.02.09

Bits of wool cluttering up my study.

20.02.09

Stress down day at work today so we were all supposed to come in our slippers.

I was just photographing my feet for the blog as Rachel came over to see what I was doing.

19.02.09

Finally got that bloody newsletter done so rewarded myself with a cupcake.

18.02.09

Note to self, don't read murder mystery novels when traveling alone late at night.

17.02.09

Got home from work to find a biker working in the garage.

16.02.09

Claire buys the best presents, this brooch at Christmas and today my favourite chocolate brownies from Borough.

15.02.09

We put out more food for the garden wildlife today and in return the Robin did a photo session for me.

14.02.09

It's not just me with random collections of old stuff on top shelves, my Mom does it too.

13.02.09

I am very excited that the custom vinyl for my laptop came today. I'm already thinking of all the other things I can customise around the house, the fridge, the wardrobe...

The sticker is from an independent retailer called SaySaySay - www.saysaysay.etsy.com

12.02.09

When I saw Comic Relief were selling Morecambe and Wise T-shirts for Red Nose Day I couldn't resist. The original photo is by David Bailey, which in my eyes makes it extra cool, no matter what my colleagues will think of it at work tomorrow!

11.02.09

Finishing touches to the Roman costume.

10.02.09

Church hall, spray glue, bad plan. Today we finally did the bag customising activity I've been planning.

09.02.09

Asda mission for this week - ingredients for a curry.

08.02.09

How many Deer can you see in this picture?

Not the best photo but it's not often you come across quite so many Deer in one spot.

07.02.09

January was origami, February is all about textiles. Last night I made Pom-poms and tonight we're making Beth's Roman costume.

06.02.09

Reminds me a bit of the London Eye.

05.02.09

Footprints.

04.02.09

Rainbow.

Don't be fooled by the pink fluff, Rainbow is a bruiser. As you can see he has a scar on his wing and his beak is flattened, much like a broken nose. Raised in a Zodiac toy shop, he came to live with me in 1989. Rainbow was briefly married to Paint-a-picture Barbie in the early nineties and he currently works as a bodyguard.

This is just around the corner from my house. I love the image of a silhouette of a bare tree against a blue sky. It's a shame there are pylons in the background, but I can consider this a practice shot for when I see a tree with a clear background.

02.02.09

To make sure we all got home safely the office closed early, which meant I was home in time to make snowmen with Amy next door.

This photo made me think of a song my Gran used to sing to Janis and I. I'm not sure if 'Let's make a snowman' was a real song or whether she just made it up to entertain us.

When it starts to bubble all across the pancake then it's time to flip them over.

It's becoming a bit of a tradition in our house that when someone stops the night, Stu makes pancakes. Great way to start a Sunday.
