A busy weekend coming up. Jenny fly’s in on Sunday morning and Mandy will be meeting her somewhere in London. Mandy and Daniel will be house-sitting for us on the weekend, which means that Jenny will be able to stay as well. We’re going to be in Scotland for the weekend, leaving straight after work […]

Hove
We had a nice, relaxing weekend in Brighton (well, Hove really) with Karyn and Brian and now its back to work. We wandered around Brighton and Hove, had a look at the nearly totally destroyed old West Pier and took a day out to visit Arundel Castle. Don’t expect a write-up, that way you’ll be […]

Loch Lomond Accomodation
I’ve updated the Marriage Latest News page and have included a document that outlines accomodation options in the Loch Lomond area. It’s a 1mb pdf file, you’ll need Adobe Acrobat reader to view it (should be included with most PC’s/Macs these days).

I have uploaded a small sub-site that contains photos from Steve and Christine’s wedding. You can (no longer) access it by clicking on the photo of Steve above.
