Confetti Flurry :)

Thanks to James Walker for the first digital photo to makes its way onto the blog. Lots more to come – will upload all of them to the website eventually.

Married, Honeymooned, and Back again!

Wow. So much to say, so little time. Hopefully all read our lil blog from Bangkok, but we’ll be blogging all about Koh Samui, and the wedding day itself just as soon as I can sit down and get it all sorted. In the meantime, I leave you with the following highlights: Elephant Trekking in [...]

Blogging from Bangkok!

Hi all Kat and Ed here (or Mr and Mrs Gillett!), blogging from an internet cafe in the Asia Hotel in Bangkok just before we head off to the airport to go to Koh Samui for the rest of our honeymoon. Nothing to do until our transfer gets here, already checked out, so we thought [...]

Kat’s still feeling under the weather

Where does that come from I wonder “under the weather”. Surely we’re all “under the weather” most of the time, whether it be sunny, rainy or what not.

Terribly British! But before then I must finish building Ikea furniture (damn you Sweden), build shelves in the office, sort out [...]

Comedy Links

Pictures from “Team Badger Racing” which had the dubious honour of sharing road space with Chuck and Geoff on the Plymouth Dakar. Click here Dear God boys, those were some bad beards. Amusing entries for the Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest. Bad first lines of novels competition. My favourite thus far: “For the fifteenth time that evening [...]
