I haven’t done a proper update in a while, so I thought I would post one and go through lots of the things that have been going on in my little life in the past few weeks or so. All terribly exciting and I know you’ll just love reading it! haha.

First things first, I went to New Wine which was as usual really good fun. This year I managed to stay away from technical related subjects and was on the Youth team in the cafe for a change, it was actually really good fun. I was a little apprehensive, especially at the idea of having to be a group leader of my own little group of kids but actually it went really well and I enjoyed it! I wasn’t sure I was really up to leading kids in their spiritual learning and stuff but actually I think that by helping them and working with them on the stuff we covered I gained a lot too, so they as much led me as I led them! 

Whilst on the topic of New Wine, in an interesting twist it managed to remain fairly dry all week instead preferring to just fry us alive in the venue, but at least it wasn’t raining! I mean it did rain one day but it was only a day out of the whole week so not too bad! In fact the one day it did rain was the day I spent the most of it out doors going around collecting money for charity, so yeah… bad choice of day for charity collecting!

After New Wine not much has really happened, I’m now just 2 weeks away from the wedding (Yay!) which is pretty exciting, everything is basically ready now, got suits arriving this week and rings were ordered last week and being collected tomorrow. Naomi is collecting her dress later this week I believe and that’s basically it. The only thing left to sort is some dancing lessons for the first dance, it would be nice to actually do a good first dance rather than just shuffle around! haha.

The main thing going on now is me packing up my life, I have failed to find a job or anything and so with a lack of any better alternative me and Naomi are at first going to stay at her parents after the wedding until we both get jobs and our own place to live. I’m confident the right job will turn up eventually, it would have been nice to set up our own home straight away, but such is life. So yeah, my whole life is slowly being packed into boxes. I remember now why moving house isn’t much fun!

So, there it is… update over.

On a side note my “Assides” section is now a fully fledged Twitter feed of whatever I am doing right now, so I will update it with things like “Going into town” or “Eating some tea” etc etc. I quite like Twitter so going to give it a proper trial.

Also, I’ve added a translate function to the site, not for any particular reason but just because I can. So if you’re feeling particularly Chinese in the spirit of the Olympics then feel free to view the site in Chinese - it doesn’t even break the layout too badly!
