Three photos
In between working on wedding photos I spend a little time on our photos from recent travels. Here are three photos, one each from Brisbane, Singapore and Paris. Downtown Brisbane Singapore Zoo Paris
Terry Pratchett
On Thursday night we went and saw a talk involving Terry Pratchett, the author of the Discworld novels. Terry was informative and funny, answering many varied questions on his current book, film prospects and such things as the nature of inspiration. I think we walked a bit long getting there and leaving however, Keryn’s cold […]
Paris
We spent four days in Paris over the weekend, arriving back in London via Eurostar on Tuesday evening. We had a good if tiring time, I’m fairly sure we climbed over 2000 stairs exploring various monuments and churches. Inside St. Germain Church It was Keryn’s 30th birthday on the Sunday just gone and it was […]
Back in the UK
So we’re back, work is upon us and our brief trip is a fast fading memory. I’ve got a pile of wedding photos I’m slowly processing (I’ll get there Bridget) and we’re got a long weekend break in Paris coming up in a few days. To tide you over until the wedding photos are unleashed […]
And now New Zealand
After a whirlwind tour we have now found ourselves in Tekapo. We’ve been up north and stayed with Keryn’s family, going for walks on the beach and in the forest and also spending time with our cats. Then it was down to Timaru and time with my family before The Big Day, my sister Bridget […]
Jim & Angela
With almost no mistakes we found ourselves pulling into the driveway, parking up just in front of the Farmers Market stall out the front of the house. We had to move the car to the next driveway so as not to block access to the stall and we knocked on the door to be let […]
A spot of luck
On the weekend we did our irregular monthly shopping at Sainsbury’s in Brentwood. It was a busy day at the supermarket so we weren’t looking forward to queuing for ages to get out. Turns out we did have to queue for a long time but this was because the power failed for all the tills, […]
Dave at Dingwalls
We saw Dave Dobbyn at Dingwalls in Camden last night and it was a proper Kiwi experience. Dave was funny and enjoying himself and everyone (wall to wall Kiwi expats) had a blast. Not only did I win tickets to the concert and get a free CD but I also got thrown a t-shirt by […]
More on SLL

On the Saturday an event was held called Shoot London and involved teams of up to four people meeting in the morning at the Tate Modern Museum and getting their clues before heading our to take photographs. They all had a time […]
Shoot London Lite
We spent most of Sunday wandering around London taking photos for a treasure hunt I had signed us us for a few weeks back. I’ll elaborate more tomorrow, for now here are some of the photos we took and the clues that led us to take each image. Clue 1: He invented the electric motor […]
Red Hot at Earl’s Court
Friday night saw us attending our biggest ever indoor concert, the Red Hot Chili Peppers at Earl’s Court. We left work and made our way to Earl’s Court where we had something to eat before making our way to the venue. This turned out to be a good plan, the doors only opened as we […]
