Snow Alert

Get your sledges ready! They say its going to snow here tomorrow and maybe up until saturday! Whoopee!
Maybe Percy can be resurrected!

Happy Monday!

I hope you are all enjoying this lovely Monday sunshine, as I am sure it will not last very long! I also hope you had a good 'Burns' night on saturday. Dunc and I went to our local to celebrate as they were having a Burns night. So of course I had to where my kilt! But there are no pictures I'm afraid! I also only saw one person ordering the Haggis! But would you eat sheeps innards?!

Someone Dafter Than Kate!

One of our friends, who's house was nearly but not quite flooded during the
great Chertsey floods recently has just told me a story that any Kate-ism I
could ever come up with...

A local man was wearing those great big waterproof waders that fishermen
wear - you know the sort than come up to your chest - and walking happily
through the floodwaters. The water was coming near to the top of his waders
but nothing too serious. He then must of stepped down off a pavement into a
road or pothole, because suddenly the water was higher than his waders and
filling them up fast. The weight of the water now inside his waders meant he
could no longer move and had to be rescued by firemen!!

Site Update...

There's a couple of additions to the web site today. At long last Ive stuck the photo's from New Year in our gallery, (what is it with Jeremy and putting things over his face??). Sorry for the delay, but I was trying to come up with a way to make adding pictures to the gallery painless. Theres still some tinkering to do, but next time the photos should be up much quicker...honest.

Also, I've added a contact us page so you can now email us direct from the web site if you dont have your favourite email app handy.

Kate's at it Again...

I promise this site wont turn into a 'poke fun at Katy' site, but I cant let this one pass. Last night while reading the 'New Scientist' Kate was particularly interested in a letter asking why was the ratio of men:women 50:50 when one man can get many women pregnant, why wasn't the ratio 5:50? Kate decided it was because nature wanted all the babies to be brought up by 2 people. Who'd have thought it, Mother Nature believes in family values, probably votes Tory too.

Kate-isms

On her way to an important meeting this morning Kate managed to lock herself out! She forgot to pick up her keys as she left the house so couldn't get into her car of back into the house. I'm considering starting a new section of the website just for Kate-isms. You know, the things she says and does that only Kate can!

Bit like the sign for the A3 Paper Fair, (seen on the A3 into London), when she annouced that is was odd having a fair only for A3 paper - then 30 seconds later when she wondered why everyone was laughing saying "I suppose the A3 could be to do with the road, not the paper size". Bless.

Snowman

Yes we have constructed our first snowman for a very long time! It is in our front garden, but it is very small due to the lack of substantial snow. I think I will name him Percy! Lets see how long he survives!

It's Snowing

Yes, its actually snowing quite heavily here at work. Hopefully I won't
get snowed in! Perhaps I will be able to make a snowman by the end of the
day!! The snowflakes are getting quite big now! Oooh this is exciting!!
Am I sad?

Happy New Year!

Another year, another new look for our website. This time I promise to finish it too! (Well, at least try really hard). This new look is brought to you in part from Blogger, with a few changes by me, the most noticeable being the fact that if you want you can add comments to our posts! To do so just click on the 'comments' link at the foot of each post - if the number in brackets is greater than 0 you will also see what other people have said.

Christmas and (especially) New Year were fun, and hopefully my liver will return to normal in time for my 30th birthday at the end of Feb, (27th for those of you interested - which is of course all of you!)! The pictures from New Year are next on my website to-do list, so if past performance is anything to go by expect them by June.
