Katia Comes to Stay!

September 11th, 2011

So tonight we’re being hit by a category 1 hurricane – “Katia”. Silly old hag was heading to the US but decided she actually didn’t want to go so has travelled all the way across the Atlantic to visit us. As nice as it is to have a tourist, I don’t think it’ll be much fun to have her staying so we hope she’ll hate the culture and go home quickly (wherever home is for her!)

And so we wait.  This isn’t even Katia yet but there is definitely something frightening brewing. So here are a few photos of us cosying up waiting for this moody thing to pass on over (taken with tired hands on a phone!) I will admit, having never had a hurricane before it is somewhat exciting.

Stay safe friends, hope Katia’s kind to you.

GBK Date

August 13th, 2011

So after a truly terrible week we decided it would be nice to get out and visit our new friends, also known as  gourmet burger kitchen! My oh my, their portions were as big as our heads and we were spoilt for choice with all the good food and vegetarian options (good on you, GBK!) We had found heaven! And despite our best efforts, we struggled to finish the delicious food. I will admit I was tempted to ask for a doggy bag but managed to keep that slither of dignity.

On our way home, 7 police cars and a riot-control van raced by with sirens blaring. A somewhat bittersweet end to the day, but we’re tucked away safely for now. And oh! You know how we mentioned some “exciting news”? Let’s just say that we’re getting very close to spilling the beans. But for now, it begins with an “h” and the process is about halfway through, just a little longer until it’s all officially in writing and we can share!

Happy weekend, friends!

Hello friends!

July 24th, 2011

We are back from our Italian island adventures! Though it will be thoroughly missed, it does feel good to be back and speak English again! Pizza, pasta and ice cream will never taste the same, they’ll just never be as good as the way the Italians make them. We’ll be heading back soon enough, we thinks!

But now we have our feet back on English soil, we think Nakitt could do with a little bit of TLC. Which is what we’re going to try and do. So keep your eyes peeled for updates (fingers crossed!)

And oh, we have exciting news! We’ve been trying not to think or talk about it in case it all gets horribly jinxed and leaves us with a bitter taste of broken hopes, but we’d say it’s nearly about time to spill the beans if things look like they’re beginning to solidify, who knows?! Right now, it’s just an idea trying to be that something more. [:

Short and sweet news.

June 6th, 2011

So, a lot has been happening.
But I don’t have the willpower to type it all.
So I’ll just keep to the best parts.

Nathan’s job title is officially changed.
Though he was promoted at Christmas, he has been issued a new job title altogether.
He’s still their youngest team leader.


I signed my superinjunction.
Although this does not necessarily benefit me, it is the end of a horrible chapter.
Hopefully I can now plough forward and forget all the nastiness.

Nathan and Kitty are official village fair photographers.
Turns out we’re now on a quest and being commissioned by the local papers to photograph our local village fair.
Pretty excited.

We have been saving for our first house.
This may be a long way away, but the wheels are in motion.
We’ll buy our first house soon.

Kitty has been commissioned on her first ad campaign.
Lots of young faces, fun, hard work and long hours to bring a new Elonex TV ad to a UK screen near you.
Absolutely stoked.

4 years.
Although we didn’t blog about it, May 20th 2011 was our 4 year anniversary.
It was magical.

 

What has life been entailing for you all?
